(PSN)JaysInc_ Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/36955469/apple-replaces-gun-emoji-for-water-pistol-and-introduces-100-other-characters Apple users beware one of your favorite emojis is being swapped out with a more "inclusive" design, a water pistol :D. As for reason why they did this, there isn't, not even Apple has stated why they done this change, for reasons. So there's that, they also have diverse emojis...whatever that means.

(XBOX)xDarkzgul Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 (edited) This goes to show how kids are now rich enough to own their own IPhones at a young age. Next thing you'll know they'll have their own Alienware PCs Edited August 4, 2016 by (XB1)xDarkzgul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heskaroid Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 (edited) phones should have age restrictions Edited August 4, 2016 by heskaroid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.ToastForPresident Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Highly doubt this change is because of kids. Most of toys aimed towards young boys have some sort of gun in them along with most shows have violence (have you guys seen Tom and Jerry, that has tons of violence). It's probably some easily offended internet dweller because someone decided to put a gun emoji that triggered his/her PTSD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)definitelydan Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 I guess all the triggered tumblr kids complained that it didn't seem appropriate or whatever and created a petition to change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
