 Re: Forced Emotes - Learn what it is
While on the topic of emotes, I would like to bring up something else. Lately it seems to be vogue to have these big, elaborate emotes that, while descriptive, mean really nothing to the characters around them. If you are emoting a thought... well don't. Say it, or make it plain what you are feeling in your emote. None of my characters are mind readers and I'd appreciate it if you'd throw me a bone.
Twice yesterday I was confronted with emotes that left me absolutely nothing to continue the RP with, without being all meta-game-y. Seriously, I'd much rather have your character come out and say the things that are emoted half the time, at least then there is an avenue for continued RP. If you don't give me anything to work with then, well.. RP over I guess. Which honestly makes me think less of the persons play style, despite the quite descriptive emote.
