I APOLOGIZE for MY "EMOJIs" to EVERYONE, Thank You BLACKJACK & sorry if they were "inappropriate or juvenile" as you said, but I hoped to be Supportive and I'm so sorry i upset you Blackjack using the emojis they have provided here, i figured since other people use Hearts or Hugs Emojis that mine would also be accepted.

Doesn't seem inappropriate or juvenile to me--I see it as a nice gesture on par with liking other people's posts and comments. But that's just my opinion!

I use emojis a lot as they sometimes convey more than I might write in several sentences. Doesn't mean I'm lazy, just that in context they can work well as multi layered communication tool.

I use emojis at times, sometimes it makes the entire difference between how someone will understand a gesture. Some people will see them differently than I do though, there's a bit of cultural diversity in how one understands emojis.

Like:
Maybe you should instead do this - [neutral, no emotion]

Maybe you should instead do this :/ - [disapproval, uncertainty]

Maybe you should instead do this :) - [genuine, happy input]

Maybe you should instead do this :P - [happy, silly, joking]

Maybe you should instead do this ;) - [arrogant, smartass]

Maybe you should instead do this :( - [unhappy, empathic]

It changes so much if not overused, it guides how a sentence is read, there's nothing wrong with adding a bit of flair.
But if someone starts using emojis in place of actual words, I won't even try, I am not into deciphering hieroglyphics!

You do you.

I don't see any issue with using emojs, Everyone can express themselves the way they want to as long as they don't break the rules.

tht's not inappropriate or juvenile

inappropriate and juvenile would b something like... visiting a self-banned user's profile and writing a rude reply on their goodbye message

That's tedious. Nothing wrong with using emojis.
