Go easy on emojis

Human replies only

There are some exceptions, like ideas for names, but for the most part, non-human responses are banned. Everyone has access to ChatGPT and if that the type of insight someone is after, they'll ask GPT themselves. GPT can *improve* (or translate) your response, but it must not have created it.

Applies to: allRemoval reason: This is clearly ChatGPT responding.
