Just to sort of backpedal a little on my original post (I was meaning to respond to a couple responses yesterday, but suffice it to say, Autumn cleaning of the home took precedence), I'm not particularly worried or relaxed one way or the other on whether SE will or will not get around to flipping the proverbial switch and turning on typing in emotes in the chat window with commands. I just figured with the public release of the game a month away, it was definitely a topic worth throwing out there, just to see how people would take to having to resort to using the current UI to sort of clunk through the menu and pick the emote you want to use.
Additionally, apologies for not being a bit more clear on the focus of the topic. Or the primary focus, at least, since some people understandably thought I was more zoned in on custom emotes, or that it was just as much something I was harping about. I sometimes forget that not everyone coming to FFXIV is also coming from FFXI, and so some terms and lingo might be different depending on origins. ^^;

A friend to the end to depend on you can.

To the edges of the earth, to your rescue when you hurt,
Only thing I learnt is I'm not Superman.
