About the PR

Change the name of the emote vulpkanins use to whine to be crying, to be more universal. Includes removal of whine emote recognition (@whine/*whine won't play audio)

Why / Balance

This makes typing the emote identical to other species. This was brought up in #40178.

Technical details

  • Remove Whine emote
  • Rename Whine->Crying

I think it being "whine" is important flavor (yknow, like, a dog's whine). I wouldn't be opposed to having both a cry emote AND a whine emote (even if they were extremely similar) but I think removing whine as an emote outright isn't ideal.

I agree its a shame you cannot emote "whines" anymore. Ill ask other maints to see if theres a way to do it without it being in the emote wheel as a duplicate of crying

To be "universal", would it not simply be enough to "symlink" cry to whine? (Presumably this is only an issue when someone tries to trigger it from chat)

I don't see much of a reason stated so far that warrants ripping out whine entirely
