    Default /emote, /em, and /me

    When RP'ing or just emoting in general in Istaria, I tend to swap up /em and /me. Most other games out there and most chat systems use /me for emotes, so I'm very used to that. It's a pain having to go back through all of your post that you just typed or retype it just to fix that you wrote /em instead of /me.

    A workaround IS possible, and that's typing "/alias me em" which makes it so that /me works like /em. But /alias isn't a very well-known command and "streamlining" Istaria to work with other MMOs' defaults is probably a good idea. (Adjusting the default hotkeys a bit back was done for that, wasn't it?)

    Just a pretty low-priority suggestion here.

    shift - up arrow will let you scroll thru previously typed lines, and select one to re-use it, without having to retype it all. You can move around and fix the errors, then hit enter.

    But it would be nice if /me could also serve as a default alias for /emote as you suggest.

    Yeah, I know that about shift-up arrow. :P That's why I also said 'go back through your post' instead of only 'retype your post' (because some people do that). ^^ But if you hit the chat limit, it can take a few seconds go have your cursor go all the way back. Just a minor nuisance.
