Unicode Symbol Usage

Hi Egg Cave. ^-^

(If you don't know what Unicode is, it's basically computer symbols. At least that's what I think they are. o3o )

I was thinking that Egg Cave should start using / allow users to / have the site register / (whatever the correct term for it is) Unicode symbols. xD

We can post Unicode symbols on other people's walls, but we can't use them on pet profiles, forum posts, or mails. :c

I know some symbols would be rather useful (For me at least), such as the check mark, and others could just be to make profiles and such more colorful and cool. 😋

Feel free to search up some Unicode symbols. I think they're pretty neat. ^-^

The only thing I could see being an issue with this, is the unicode that makes letters with the little marks above them and what-not. I could see it being really irritating when you accidently get such-and-such confused with something else that looks VERY similar...maybe only have unicode useable on list names, forum posts, ect but not creatures or user names?

Oh yeah, only on forum posts, user profile, pet profiles, etc.
