# Award emoji
|
|
|
|
>**Note:**
|
|
This feature was [introduced][1825] in GitLab 8.2.
|
|
|
|
When you're collaborating online, you get fewer opportunities for high-fives
|
|
and thumbs-ups. Emoji can be awarded to issues and merge requests, making
|
|
virtual celebrations easier.

Award emoji make it much easier to give and receive feedback without a long
|
|
comment thread. Comments that are only emoji will automatically become
|
|
award emoji.

|
|

|
|
downvotes.
