Re^2: proposal: implement /em to emote in the chatterbox

Dark Ages of Camelot used /em. I prefer /me (since you can actually read what you're typing and you'll get the right person for your verbs), but I recognize that some might be used to /em.

Though on the other hand, how much more fun would it be if we made '/em' an alias to "/me makes a typo while saying that /me !"? <grin> If God had meant us to fly, he would never* have given us the railroads. --Michael Flanders	[reply]

I must be getting old. I always thought 'em was was a colloquialism of them.	[reply]
