Directed EMOTES

Written by: Clementius, the Weaver
Date: Friday, February 23rd, 2007
Addressed to: Everyone


The EMOTE command (see HELP EMOTING) has been expanded to allow you
to direct emotes (these are custom emotes!) at others.

Any EMOTE that ends with AT <person> will now be interpreted as
being a directed emote, and will be directed at/toward <person>,
with certain special details to control how.

The emote is tailored by the use of the > character. This stands
for the name of the person, in your emote.

An example or two will probably help:

EMOTE gives a flower to >, bowing at selene

Selene sees: Clementius gives a flower to you, bowing.
Others see: Clementius gives a flower to Selene, bowing.

You may use a possessive form, such as >'s or >'es.
You may also use punctuation, as in ">," or ">." or ">;" for example.

Penned by my hand on the 6th of Miraman, in the year 444 AF.
