Emotes

Overview
Emotes are short animations a player can use to express various body-language signals in-game. Some of them are purely for fun, and some are actually useful. Several of the emotes are accompanied by a sound, which is noted in the description below. Emotes are called as slash commands. To use an emote you simply use "/" followed by the emote. See the list below.
