Is there any emote which you don't want to hear from opponent, because it annoys you/you consider it rude or BM? If yes, which emote is that? You can also say emotes of which class you don't like, or which emote from which class you don't like to hear the most.
For example I don't like warrior's greetings emote, because it sounds kind of rude to me and it's voice can be very good for BM if an opponent want to (Topdeck brawl into full enemy board? Used alex on to heal at 1 life against aggro? Heh, Greetings) I don't really mind emotes, unless they are clearly used for BM, do I just wonder if some of you who doesn't automatically squelch opponents have emotes you don't like hearing from opponent.
I vote for Thanks, because it's nearly always used in a sarcastic way. The only non-jerkish way to use 'Thanks' is if someone is complimenting your play first, IMO.
Definitely the "Thanks" emote. As soon as my enemy starts using that one, I try twice as hard to win just so I can say it back to them right when they lose.
To interpret the result most people of this small sample of 46 people, that can be little biased, as for example new players probably don't use hearthpwn. Almost 2/3 people dislike the most thanks or sorry. I think that's pretty reasonable, these 2 emotes can easily turn into BM, but how do you recognize normal or BM use in some cases?
Thanking opponent for his misplay, or for stealing his secret/minion/or getting good thoughsteal from him is sure BM. You can thank when you manage to get great rng in your side to thank rngesus, but this probably is not best use of emote too, nice use of thanks is probably thanking opponent for good game, not really sure about other nice uses of thanks.
Sorry has the similar problem, if you use sorry after topdecking something that directly win you the game some people can take it as he apologized for his luck and others can take it as BM. You can say sorry if you have good rng or perfect countercard (like kezan vs secret) This is not the nicest way to use emote, but it's not BM I think. If you say sorry after enemy triggers your secret it's just annoying. Not sure about nice use of this emote, maybe something like sorry for my luck if ragnaros hits face of player with 8 hp and 5 minions on board.
Sorry to say this but i always play Priest and from the moment game starts i spam "The Light Shall Burn You" until the end of game and it is so much fun, also i do this with Rogue too ("I will be your Death") but the other heroes don't have good emotes like priest or rogue.

My favorite emote is the ''Squelch'' one. I like my opponent silent.
Used to be a proud Handlock player.
Legend 17 times.
Still flirting with the ladder from times to times with Renolock.
Don't like any of them tbh. But the 'threaten' one is usually the cringiest.
I would like to see "autosquelch" feature for all games in game options
ofc "Well played" from my opponennt because it means he has lethal
Hadn't thought of that one! Thanks I'll keep it in mind
My battlenet tag isn't actually Penisbong69.
"Thanks." - Rexxar with the most irritating voice.
Sorry. Thanks.

In my oppinion the emote system is completely useless and only encourages BM.
I sometimes forget to squelch, and the "sorry, but not really" gets me every time.

squelch your opponent at the start of the game. I do it, I have no intentions to listen to that spam at all.
Worse when Warlocks or Hunters do it. By the power of greyskull that makes me crack the shits!
I like squelching after saying greetings
I heal people to death
Here's what you do:
Step 1: Greetings
Step 2: Squelch
Step 3: No longer hate everyone
I'd love if they implemented auto-squelch.
Have a great deck that's really, really cheap? Help the new players out
Honestly, they're all annoying and easily abused with and I always mute the opponent when the match starts
