Emotes 2.0
The current emote system is underutilized. It could logically extend its fun commands to some silly extremes; it also could do with some additional functional commands.
 *  § denotes changes to existing emotes.

Status emotes

 * /afk &mdash; character sits and resets status to away § ; /sit &mdash; character sits
 * /dnd &mdash; character sits and resets status to do not disturb
 * /back = /here = /online &mdash; character comes to attention and resets status to online
 * /sleep = /offline &mdash; character lies on ground to sleep and resets status to offline
 * /ignore [name] &mdash; puts [name] in ignore list (probably requires increasing the capacity of the ignore list)

Generic command
, e.g. /me had this idea first yields "CK43 had this idea first''" , if CK43 is the active player.
 * /me [text] &mdash; as in IRC, "[player] [text]"

Functional commands

 * /emote = /emotes &mdash; lists 5 emotes (presumably from help file); pressing down arrow lists the next 5, etc.
 * /help &mdash; brings up wiki (same as default [F10])
 * /help [topic] &mdash; searches wiki for named topic

Ease-of-repeat commands
(then brings up World Map)
 * /seppuku &mdash; (also: functions as /resign)
 * /map &mdash; "[player] is mapping party"


 * /gz &mdash; congratulates player who had last drop in window:
 * if easy, applies only to gold or green drops
 * if easy, applies to selected party member

Silly and/or missing emotes

 * /fist &mdash; same as /fistshake (fist shake is unintuitive)


 * /banjo &mdash;
 * /kazoo &mdash; "plays the kazoo with a silly grin"


 * /sheepish &mdash;


 * /go [player] &mdash; "Go, [player]! Go, [player]! Go, [player]!"
 * if easy, /go applies to selected party member
 * /Cry &mdash; character rubs eyes with both fists (thanks to Rose of Kali for this emote)
 * /QQ (same as /Cry, except that mistyping the synonym results in an error message: Dude: there's no crying in Guild Wars!)

Trade emotes
, "WTS [item] @[price]" , or "WTT [item] (me) for [item2] @[ratio]" respectively
 * /wtb [item] @[price]; /wts [item] @[price]; /wtt [item] @[item2] #[ratio]
 * creates message, "WTB [item] @[price]"
 * sends message into trade channel only
 * setups message in party window under category=Trade
 * if easy, resends the message every 3 minutes or until player does any of the following: uses another /wtX emote; sends a message in the trade channel; makes changes in the party window

Might be funny to at least 2 people

 * /dude &mdash; "[player] abides"

Some players strongly object to these ideas

 * /omg &mdash;
 * if easy, if chat restrictions are limited, says, oh my god!!


 * /gag &mdash; "like, totally, gag me with a spoon! gross! grotie to the max!"
