As much as I love using the funny reaction in appraisals, the only really necessary reactions that I feel should be in the appraisals section are agree and disagree. I mean, what would the point of reacting "<3" in an appraisal thread anyway? Please leave feedback if you have an opinion on this.

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

Such a small change, Wouldn't be much point removing it doesn't change anything majorly and leaving it is the same.

I agree but disagree. It's better, but probably a waste of time. Either way, Mick will waste 10 minutes procrastinating on why not to do this when in that time he could do it.

No arguments, just opinion. I feel as if the emoji/reactions are just fine. Sometimes agree/disagree reaction wouldn't fit with what you want to react to or with. Also being, that shows the amount of support you gain looking at your profile. There's more of a meaning that just "reacting" to me, I don't know if so to anyone else. But to me it shows people do more than just agree with an idea, or just like a thread. It shows support, and you being well-known all around.

I'm not sure if you understand that I am suggesting this be implemented JUST in the appraisals section. If appraisals are kept to what they should be, then the only necessary reactions are agree and disagree.

I agree but this would be a waste of time to the developer who would have to go out of his/her way to put this in place.
No custom development would be required if we wanted to make a change like this. I think that it’s a good idea but we’ll have to rename the “Agree (Suggestions) reaction to something else so that the agree/disagrees don’t count towards your totals to prevent people trying to farm reactions.

Well understood, yet, even so. That minor change doesn't make much of a difference. As if anyone even uses "<3" or "</3" in that section. Yet, if its only in that section that i'd have to agree just a bit.

Why add this when there's no problem in using other reactions, "Like" "Winner" and "Funny" are pretty popular in the appraisals section.

Most of those are irrelevant to the true purpose of the appraisals section. If a new member posts an appraisal thread and someone posts an appraisal thats gets a funny instead of a disagree, the new member wouldn't realize that the appraisal is more than likely inaccurate

Maybe "Agree (Suggestions/Appraisals)" ?

Disagree.

Replies with relevant information about the account (or item) would better suit "Informative"/"Interesting" over an "Agree" rating.

Is there any point in the other emojis? It’s appraisals...

Then there can be limited ratings; such as agree, disagree, informative and interesting. Maybe useful, but things like optimistic and funny are not needed whatsoever.
If someone appraises an item completely wild, then funny and optimistic are applicable. This suggestion is pedantic and simply nit-picking.

From what i recall XenForo has an option to disable the count of reactions given to the user to his total reactions count in certain forums & sub-forums.
