This isn't ancient Egypt, or MessoAmerica, or any of the other places on the planet that invented/used symbology/ pictogram/hieroglyphs to communicate.
It makes communication MORE difficult and LESS clear.
Text communication is a direct conversion(translation) of speech. You don't say:
"left arrow-jump-levitate-smiley face"
You do however say:
"I'm jumping for joy"
But consider the other possible meanings:
"Gravity is lower over there. Wee. This is fun"
"Did you see jump back there? WooHoo!"
"In the past I would practice yoga and meditation. I liked it."
...
and i could go on.
Because say it with me:
A picture is worth a thousand words.
Which of those thousand words depends on the individual decoding/defining/interpreting the message.
If you find you are unable to convey a clear, concise, unambiguous message using text; you need to read more and perhaps go back to school.
