It looks like emoticons like 🔪 are auto-translated into text.  Is there a list of approved emoticons?

That was originally https://emojipedia.org/hocho/ and from "Copy and paste this emoji:".

I've never seen emojis on the site, and that makes me incredibly happy.

The list of approved emoticons is, basically: none of them.

You may be thinking of HTML codes, which do work: http://www.lookuptables.com/

Edit: If you really need an emoticon in a post, you can always save it somewhere as an image, then put it into the post using <img src="http://www.somesite.com/the-image.jpg"> .

I was going to use it for a person literally "making their mark" as in signing their name to a document.  I had planned on saying, "Joe drew his mark: <blah>." I could also see it used as a sort of category for items:


Then again, this being the emoji generation, I anticipate that more people will want to use them in the future for other purposes.

See my edit.

Ok, looks like <img src="https://emojipedia-us.s3.amazonaws.com/thumbs/120/facebook/138/hocho_1f52a.png" height="10px"> works in a game, albeit at a larger size than I'd like.

Is there anything like <img src="https://emojipedia-us.s3.amazonaws.com/thumbs/120/facebook/138/hocho_1f52a.png" style="height:10px;"> that'll force an image to a smaller size?

No, images are always displayed on RPoL at their original size.

Certain unicode characters are HTML-friendly enough to show up in posts here, even though they might get transformed into gobbledegook in the editor. I don't think there's a definitive list of characters that work here, so it's a matter of trying things out and seeing if they work.

&#128298; is the html code for the emoji Genghis the Hutt was trying to use.

From my test, every character over 255 is correctly converted to its html code¹ when previewing or posting the message. That how Genghis the Hutt got his number. But, everything that convert to an html code over² 100000 are converted an second time: instead of &#100000; it is &amp;#100000; that it is save.

1. For example ÿ (255) it is not converted while Ā (256) is.
2. 𘚟 &#100000; (The first one should look like a block with numbers, while the second look like & followed by #100000;)
