IRC /me slang
I was wondering whether there wasn't a feature which would change the typical "IRC slang"; /me blahblahblah... into the IRC form insteak of keeping it just like text, for example like what SMF would do;
/me jumps happilly to * martino jumps happily Thanks

It seems The Small One wrote the intro for my reply
We actually encourage people to use proper English so building a slang converter would seem contrary to that. It might also encourage people to post pointless one line replies I would imagine. Plus such a mechanism would introduce a load to the servers because every single post that gets displayed would need to have a string search performed to see if there was a match for /me . It might not be great (considering there are similar mechanisms in place for the bbcode [ keywords ] ) but I really don't see the point. A forum is different to IRC and I would prefer to keep the difference |

If you want to do that, then just do it yourself. It's really not hard in the least as you have discovered yourself. Besides, as xris points out, this is a forum not a chat. You can simply express your own feelings instead of needing to rely on such a thing. * NoSanninWa walks off while shaking head.

But it's true that it's not that hard anyway to do those emotes yourself. *goes back to lurking&stalking*
