What can you make with a coin flip? I think thats the lesser of the emotes. =P Several years, and we have only a handful - now less. Things are moving more backwards than forwards.

ppl must have gotten too smart with the animated flipping-coin-hand's movements, disney did try to fix the "bounciness" vertically of avatars for /coin a few months ago but guess disney still couldn't totally fix it to their satisfaction, so they got rid of it, sad. At least /coin & /bounce's removal got put into release notes, I remember how /kneel just stopped working 1 day, & it was NEVER announced they removed it from release notes, & everyone got upset & disney acts like that emote had never existed, guess they didnt want any more screenshots of /kneel showing up so they never announced its disappearance.

no i'm not one of those bad kids who was using /kneel inappropriately, *totally innocent* i dont have a single screenshot of that emote coz i thought it'd always be around, i just thought it was cute whenever ppl asked me 2 help them w/killing something or sinking something or whatever. haha my fave memory of /kneel was this 1 time 2 years ago (omg awwwwwwww has it been that long since that emote worked???!!!??!! lol i just remember that was when this certain particular leaderboard guild i was in was still active), i tped 2 a guildie & she had gotten crew/guildmates/friends to /kneel right b4 i landed coz she wanted me 2 sail the pearl 4 her bb (this was back when it was different/hard, nowadays i can take a lvl 1 sailing pirate & still win in green, not as good but almost as good as my mastered sailors's sailing). it was soooo cute rofl, of course i asked them 2 all get off their knees fast coz that was embarrassingly awkward since we were in a gun shop on a busy server & random ppl were running in & out.

there's only 1 more questionable emote that i think disney will try to reanimate coz ppl seem to like to abuse it as well, but knowing disney they'd prolly be removing it soon anyways =( yea i agree, seems like disney is moving backwards instead of forwards

Ummmmmm trust me. Coin flip can be objectionable.

PERSONAL SPACE is the issue, not the various emotes. All of the emotes can be used objectionably.

To improve server-side performance the removed the concept of personal space.

The correct fix, is to make the PERSONAL SPACE logic simply be client-side.

Attacking valid features instead, is pure malice...the current programming team must intentionally be TRYING to kill POTCO faster, to drive people to free games faster. Kinda like making lava stop flowing, or intentionally making skies ugly (yet never adding rain.)

As they say on some other forums when you agree with someone... THIS.
