Are you talking about Gestures?

I think of emotes as the things that I type with "/me ....." and I don't have those saved anywhere such that I could trash them or pass them around -- they are always impromptu-spur-of-the-moment type things.

Lot of dancers have them saved on notecards for a quick copy and paste and change the name. I found it much easier to just make them up as you go and make them specifically for the person they are targeting to. Less robotish and more personal. I don't dance/strip/escort but do similar emotes in the RP's I do.

And yes, emotes are something like

/me walks over to LittleMe Jewell, wraps her arms around Jewell's waist and gives a big hug and kiss.

emotes = emotions typed out.

At http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Emote the wiki defines emote as"
From: someone
An emote is a way to express a resident's emotions/feelings via chat.
Examples :

* :) or ^^ or :o) or ;) => happy
* :( or :o( => sad


The wiki is using the term emote for what I think of as an text emoticon.


At http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Avatar_Appearance in the section on LLVisualParam the wiki uses the term emote in different way, meaning the in-built expressive behaviors avatars perform, or something like that:

From: someone
* 300 Express_Closed_Mouth
* 301 Express_Tongue_Out
* 302 Express_Surprise_Emote
* 303 Express_Wink_Emote
* 304 Express_Embarrassed_Emote
* 305 Express_Shrug_Emote
* 306 Express_Kiss
* 307 Express_Bored_Emote
* 308 Express_Repulsed_Emote
* 309 Express_Disdain
* 310 Express_Afraid_Emote
* 311 Express_Worry_Emote
* 312 Express_Cry_Emote
* 313 Express_Sad_Emote
* 314 Express_Anger_Emote
* 315 Express_Frown
* 316 Express_Laugh_Emote
* 317 Express_Toothsmile
* 318 Express_Smile
* 632 Express_Open_Mouth


There are products with "emote" in the name such as the Auto Emote or the Emote-a-rama that trigger animations and do other expression related things . This class or group of scripted objects might collectively be referred to as "emotes" by some people.

I guess if you were a stripper and just performing for the crowds it d be no biggie- but geesh- what a gyp if u hire an escort and she or he isn't "with" you enough to feel you- that just boggles the mind. And even worse- can you imagine going out with someone who is copy/pasting stuff @ you????

/me is horrified at this concept although I do recall seeing something once on Xstreets- between that and tlaking bits, you could leave you avi on automatic while u go have a snack :eek:
