Hi, got the following error code whilst attempting to subscribe to a thread in the 40k background section:

com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLDataException: Data truncation: Incorrect string value: '\xF0\x9F\x98\x81' for column `dakka`.`jforum_bookmarks`.`title` at row 1

Query being executed when exception was thrown:
INSERT INTO jforum_bookmarks (user_id, relation_id, relation_type, public_visible, title, description) VALUES (62565, 814879, 2, 1, 'Find me a chapter- pls 😁', '')

My suspicion is it is due to the emoji in the title?

Edit: I was able to subscribe to this N&B thread without issue.

**usernamesareannoying**

interesting, thats my thread and it didnt auto subscribe it for me either.
let me try to remove the emoji.

update:
the emoji was indeed the issue.

fyi to mods i suppose... no emojis in subjects. haha

Thanks for testing it
