Usage of the /me command
Usage of the /me command
The /me command is to communicate an action your character is doing when its not possible to do this through emotes or other in game mechanics.
For example, you might do a /me message with "sheds a tear" which would communicate to everyone around you that your character is doing this action, this would be because there isn't an emote to shed a tear or have a tear running down your face.
The /me feature is not for talking out of character, talking in charafter, sharing information (excluding injury details to EMS while you are unconcious) or any other use.
| Example | Allowed | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| Stares off in to the distance | ✔️ | This is an action your character is doing |
| Fumbles in bag for wallet | ✔️ | This is an action your character is doing |
| Spits chewing gum out on to the ground | ✔️ | This is an action your character is doing |
| Has gunshot wound to the chest area | ✔️ | If you are unconcious, this is an acceptable way to convey your injuries to responding EMS |
| Hey can you give me some cash? | ❌ | Not to be used for speaking, you need to use your microphone for communicating, if you are unconcious or dead then you CANNOT communicate |
| 0450 000 000 | ❌ | Not to be used for sharing information including phone numbers, session ID (for bank transfer, etc) |
| Thinks about what to have for lunch | ❌ | People cannot read your mind, you shouldn't use /me for internal thoughts, this is a form of metagaming |
| (some shit gang here) ON TOP | ❌ | This is spam and misuse of the me command and will result in punishment |
| FUCK THE POLICE!! | ❌ | Generally paired while doing /e gangsign" by children, this is spam and misuse of the me command and will result in punishment |
