User blog comment:Random-storykeeper/Emoticons and adjusting our image policy/@comment-24707114-20150421074312

Sorry if I'm a spoilsport to some people, but I need to voice out my opinion on this.

One thing about the image policy, is that I feel that there is a need to be there. Why? What if a user went pernamently inactive but a bunch of Non-Nitrome related images that were in his/her userpage were never deleted? Furthermore, wouldn't a huge bunch of Non-Nitrome related images in the images page make it alot harder to find older Nitrome-related images?

I was once editing on a wiki where this image policy was not applied, thus images would be randomly added for irrevalant subjects not relating to the wiki's main topic itself.

Regarding the Non-Nitrome related (not including the yellow face) emoticons:

I'm not sure how they can be used in any way possible. How will the Puppet emoticon be used? (I admit I get creeped out by his face/body often) If Minecraft emoticons were added, how are you going to use them? Only to symolise that you're playing Minecraft?
