False emoticon trigger

False emoticon trigger

Steps to reproduce
REPEATING an earlier request about a RECURRING PROBLEM:
https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/visual-lisp-autolisp-and-general/trim-any-line-in-a-layer-to-5mm-on-b...
In line 15 of the code window, there's an 8 followed by a SPACE and then a right parenthesis ). That space between them should not be necessary, but without it, the 😎 disappears. Outside a code window they would turn into an emoticon, but inside one they just go away, which DESTROYS THE CODE COMPLETELY. I only happened to notice, and went back in to "fix" it by adding the space between (fortunately it happens to still work that way), but not everyone will even know to look, much less how to fix it.


Expected results
That an 8 followed by a ), at least within a code window, should remain an 8 followed by a ).


Actual results
Inside a code window, the two characters are eliminated; outside in the Message body, they are converted to an emoticon -- those really have no place in a technical forum like this anyway, so I would prefer that emoticon-trigger capability be removed from the site entirely.

Hi @Kent1Cooper ,

 

We have pushed a fix to production as of last evening to address the emoticon issue. Please let me know if this is still an issue.
