So....a lot of people use the emotes in Furcadia to link to things, (or they use text). I know that RPR is not DEP/Furcadia, however, I believe they work hand in hand behind the scenes to some extent? Or....something, I don't know. I was wondering if there was any way Kim, or someone else high up here at RPR, could speak with the DEP team and maybe work with getting another emote. I'm not sure if Furcadia has added any in the recent years. Just a simple emote that says 'RPR', but maybe spiffed up a bit more than the 'afk' 'brb' 'ooc' emotes.
It's just a thought. I figured...if people use it in their desc's to link to their obvious RPR profiles, it'd b kinda nifty. Not sure if this could ever be a thing.

To the best of my knowledge, RPR and DEP are two completely separate entities and don't work together. I'm fairly certain than any request for official content addition to Furcadia has to go through DEP, as asking DEP to add stuff to RPR doesn't work either!
I know it's not an emote but, there is an option to make an RPR group in Furcadia, if you're wanting a desctag.
If that doesn't fulfill your needs, I'd say go with Sanne for sure, and contact DEP.

also, it's possible to make custom emotes in private dreams by reskinning the defaults, so if you do most of your RP in a community you could ask the dream owner ? 
alternatively, maybe use unicode symbols to make a fancy link in your desc?

I know DEP and RPR are not the same entities. I am not wanting to make a custom group on furcadia, as you cannot hyperlink said desctag to an individuals custom profile. I know that you can reskin default emotes...that's not what I'm wanting. I'm wanting there to be an actual RPR emote that -everyone- on -every- map can use by default. I just figured that since Furcadia get's a lot of traffic from RPR (a LOT from TGT/NV and a few other dreams for sure) and vice versa, there could be some cooperatae behind the scenes thing going on there. I also felt it best that, if it could be a thing...perhaps one of the heads of RPR suggest it to DEP instead of just a player. They might listen more in that case.

Except for very occasionally sending reports pertaining to cross-site harassment, and in the past we've done maybe one or two news posts about major events the other was throwing, no, we don't coordinate. I used to be one of the higher up Pixels years and years and years ago, but left the position when I started the RPR -- there just wasn't enough time to do both. You can still see some of my bellydancing NPCs and water animations in New Furn though. Oh, and the "Lovebird" avatar.

That does sound nifty! Maybe I'll send some Furcadian peeps a link to this topic?

Iiiif you like? Not sure they'd consider it but hey, never hurts to try? Also, I thought you'd worked for them at some point in time, or someone did, I just could not remember! Thank you Kim. Completely up to you if you want to link them to this or not.
