I have a question concerning /me and /ame.
(can't /n anymore, therefore asking here)
So usually I will use a /me if it is something long and should be seen by the people I RP with. Something like "/me unlocks the save and takes 100 dollars out of the pile of money in the save"
If I have something small and probably insignificant for the RP, that can be overseen in RL I will usually put it as /ame. For example: "/ame sighs"
I do that because the /me is seen in the chat while the /ame isn't.
What I saw in the past a lot of times is that in robberies and other situations like that, where it is important for all parties to see what is happening, that people use /ame. Is that actually ok?
I mean situations like you are facing away, a person approaches from behind and does "/ame unholsters a desert eagle and aims it at your head". If I don't react at first because I didn't see the /ame and think it was asspulling, then who is right? Me because there was no way that I could have seen that he didn't asspull or him because he typed an /ame and therefore somehow RPed? (I feel that using /ame for such things is really close to PG)
It has not happened to me specifically but I saw it happen that way and I just would like to have some clarification on this. Sure it is sometimes difficult to draw the line of when is something important enough to put it as /me but still there are clear cases in my opnion > everything that is significant for the following RP should, in my opinion, be a /me. No?
cheers
