5/5 - Succint, aesthetically pleasing, and very informative!

A couple things I would suggest:

-Fix one or two typos (traget=target in last tab),

-Move the "%t" variable explanation from its current position in the bottom of the last tab to somewhere more noticable, perhaps in a tab of its own. It's a very useful bit of information. You use it a few times before it is even explained, which could be quite confusing to new readers.

-Denoting which emotes loop would be beneficial. That is, mark or duplicate into a separate tab the ongoing emotes (dance, sit, lie, to the less-known ones: /fear).

Cheers!

or, rather, /cheer

Thanks for the guide!

I don't RP myself but this was definitely a interesting read! I learned a lot I wouldn't have known otherwise.

/cheer

Comentado por suitedreemz

Great guide!
note: /grats also works for the Congratulations emote

Comentado por Hanss

5/5 bretty gud! :DD
I left some minor comments on the separate parts, and I want to stress this again; DON'T TAKE THEM AS CRITIZISM! I love this guide, and I especially fell in love with your small gnome pictures.

Great job! o3o

/sniff (AS - Worgen only)
Produces an animation and sound of the Worgen sniff the air, more than they already do lol.

The way this is worded and the fact that it's gray instead of orange seems to imply that ONLY worgen can do the /sniff emote, which is not true.

All races can /sniff emote, but only the worgen get an animation or sound from doing it.

Just thought I would point that out. =)

Comentado por Schmiggles

Awesome. This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.

Comentado por unholydriver

I'll be using /doh from now on. /ty

Comentado por Ozmator

Thank you for the guide(s)! Whilst I'm not particularly a role player, I do occasionally have a little fun with emotes. I had accidentally stumbled upon some of these. It's nice to have a comprehensive list.

%t = targeting player's name

Not that it's a really important aside, as it does exactly the same thing. However,
%n
also uses the name of your target in an emote.

I would be interested to know what the difference in the two is, as well as what other var codes there are in game. So far I've seen %n, %t and %s.

Comentado por Vealeon

If you have lots to say don't put it into an emote. Too many times do I see stories written in emotes.

BTW, your advice about not making emote long is...kinda useless when you use them for RP. Two things to say here
1. There is literally an addon that let's you bypass the character limit for wow mostly used by RPers...who am I kidding, ONLY used by RPers, because the character limit it so long for wow, it doesn't matter unless your trying to tell a small story of how you beat someone into the ground after you crit rolled is kinda the joy of rp.
2.As RPer's, you basically ARE writing a SMALL stroy inside your emotes. Also, hence the name "Para-Rpers, since you basically can do like two paragaphs....though, if your DMing an event...don't be a para-rper...well, you can, just don't RAID WARNING IT because it's spammy...really...reallly spammy.
