I like the project itself but the emojis seem like an odd choice. Including them in a document that's intended to get people to pay you money seems unprofessional to me.

I could be totally wrong about that though, I don't use Patreon so I'm not sure what a page would usually look like. To be honest I've never really understood the culture or appeal of the whole Youtube/Podcasts/Patreon/Internet celebrities thing.

Dead wrong. Emojis make copy more personable and increase conversions.

Exactly that's the goal

It's a community project, not a contract :) So I try to be as close as possible from my community
