Advanced emotes

You can direct the longer and more detailed type of emotes to one, (or more) people. This takes a little longer to type, but it gives you far more control over how your character is presented to the world. The advanced usage works like this:

Obviously you can smile at a person and then, in the same emote poke them. If you like to be more gramatically correct (and obviously we all do) then instead of sending all observers the text:

This is not gender sensitive, ie: #him.jane# works for a female character too. Also, as shown above, you can direct parts of the emote to other characters.

While it is possible to work around making statements including the possessive, using only the above commands .. the functionality has been added for including possessive statements in an emote. For example:

To reduce the limitations of the emote command, further functionality has been added that allows you to emote statements including the possessive. For example:

As you would expect, this command can be combined with all the features described above. There are also a set of more complex commands for using the speech system. As with these emotion commands, you don't need to know them to roleplay well, but if you do know them it opens up new ways to present your character as you want them presented to others in the MUD.
