I don't see the issue as long as the emote notification in chat is turned off by the person. You could also just mute the volume in game but emotes and the spamming of them will always be a constant. There are some people who will be trolls though but those sadly are unavoidable just blacklist and ignore those types.

As someone who uses emotes a lot with fellow master race Lalafell's I have never ever seen or heard anyone come up to us and complain etc on my server at least. In fact many others join in and add to the wonderful sounds of a group of adorable emote spamming Lalafells. You will always hear a Lalafell before you see them - that's a truth. xD
