Re: Pmotes, Smotes, Oh My!

I played on a MUD once (I think Avendar, not sure) that had SMOTE but didn't allow you to use the name of the games staff/immortals in the string as a way of avoiding abuse. SMOTE can be excellent for roleplayers as, on Avendar again, I actually took someone I was grouped with to my "home" and had a conversation with my "parents" all using SMOTE. Since the person was someone who wanted to get into role-playing but wasn't too sure how to go about it, they were very impressed. SMOTE can be used for all sorts of interesting things, but it's like the whole Spiderman thing. With great power ad naseum.
