Hello there Mary, nice to see you.

Nice to see you! Sorry about the answers being posted. sad

You need square [ ] brackets for emojis.

Class, I will need to delete some of your PMs to me, my inbox is getting rather full.
Those PMs will disappear from you inbox too, so don't think anything is amiss.
It will say something like: Deleted at user's request.
