XD I mean I get when you do emotes like sit and stuff but how would you emote pregnancy?I mean custom emotes. So basically anything you type that isn't speech really.. it's what your character is doing. Instead of just sitting down with the in game emote you can type that they do it at the same time. For example... You wouldn't just walk up to someone saying you'll help them up and then they'd just get up without any responses. You need to make an emote describing what they are doing like: - Bob extends his arm out towards the fish before snatching it out of the water - Is much more entertaining than just walking up to water and being all "I caught one!"
As for pregnancy you'd incorporate that into it. So as you'd include something about how Bob can't actually reach the fish because his baby lump is too huge. It's basically just letting people know what your character is doing at any time. Think of it as if you're reading a book. It's not all just a list of speeches, you want to know what the characters are doing as well. Your best bet is to watch other RP's and learn from them.
