Emote punctuation
Emote punctuation
I'm aware ESP messages automatically add punctuation and capitalization, which I both like and dislike, for reasons I probably shouldn't get into.
Emote does not currently include this feature, but I'm going to suggest that it does. Thoughts?

Re: Emote punctuation
I'm not a huge fan of this. Mainly because emotes are a bit less structured than ESP is as a whole. I'm not sure how to explain it really. I completely get where you're coming from though. It'd be nice if people did emote with a bit more responsibility, and that would include grammar and overall basic punctuation. It does shatter immersion for me if I have to re-read an emote more than than two or three times trying to get what someone was trying to get at.Barius wrote:Emote does not currently include this feature, but I'm going to suggest that it does.

Re: Emote punctuation
All I'm really suggesting is a period at the end of an emote, if punctuation doesn't already exist.
It drives me nuts when people don't do that. It makes me feel like they hit enter too early and whatever emote they posted is unfinished.

Oh. I think we're all guilty of that at some point. :)

Re: Emote punctuation
We are. I sometimes hit enter too early and that drives me nuts, too. I'd rather it do it for me than show without the period if I do make the mistake.

Re: Emote punctuation
Can quotation marks be added into the check for whether punctuation is already present, please?
