PROPOSED USAGE OF EMOTICONS FOR COMMUNICATIONS DURING PARTY’S
From the Silent Seminary Guild


To help avoid chat death while partying with others or soloing the Silent Seminary proposes the following standards for using emoticons on the Field of Honor:

Jump once-------------------yes
Jump twice------------------no
Jump during battle---------I need help
Sit ---------------------------waiting or refusal
Sit next to house -----------continue resting, I will protect you
Sit next to monster---------I want to die
Laugh -----------------------no problem here
Cry --------------------------I can’t do that or I’m sorry
Attention -------------------by your command or at your service
Charge ----------------------I will take command or follow me
Salute -----------------------you have my respect or thank you
Surprised -------------------that’s what I need for my quest
Happy -----------------------quest completed, great job
Dance -----------------------buffs timing out in 10 min or less or I have to go
Frustrated -------------------that’s not helping or you are being a jerk
Front and Center------------please invite me to your party

This is a work in progress, useful comments and suggestions are appreciated.

I use a hot key bar setup on the right side of the screen and right click.
My mains (2 bars) are at the bottom. I understand it can be difficult to change setups once you have established a play method.

The real problem in trying to establish a standard is in teaching people to understand how to use them.

Overall though, I think such a system would improve and speed up play.
