Social commands (Command Help)

Since The Two Towers is a multiplayer game, communication with other players is one of its core functions. We offer plenty of ways to do so, with numerous customization options. Here is a brief list of commands that you can use to communicate and otherwise interact with others.

• say, mutter - The most basic communication commands. Makes your character say (or just mutter) something!
• tell, respond, tellhist, privacy - Commands used for communication with players that are not in the same room as you are.
• emote, emoteat - Sends a message to everyone in your room that your character is doing something, like smiling or nodding.
• semote - While you can use fully custom emotes as described above to show your character doing something, we have also prepared a very large list of pre-defined emotes, each acting as a command on its own. Use this command to view the full list.
• whisper - A cross between "say" and "tell" - lets you send a private message to just one person in the room you are in.
• shout - Sends a message to everyone in your room as well is other rooms in the area you are currently in. Use sparsely, as excessive shouting may be annoying to others.
• who - Lists all players who are online.
• legend - Lets you view detailed information about a particular player, online or not. This command is often called "finger" on other MUDs.
• story - Allows you to view the character story that another player has written.
• wardrobe, describe, undescribe - Alter your description which people see when they look at you, and switch between them easily.
• comms, comm, newbiecomm, er, fr, clan, guild, trivia - These commands let you list and use the public chat lines we have available, or "comms" as they are called here.
• party - A command interface for adventuring together with other players. This command has a lot of possible arguments that let you create and manage parties; see the command help itself for all the details.
• friend, enemy - During your stay on The Two Towers, you will undoubtedly make new friends, as well as probably get to know people you wish you didn't! These commands let you manage lists of your friends and enemies so that you don't forget who they are.
• ignore, unignore - While we strive to create a helpful and friendly atmosphere on The Two Towers, we understand that some people just do not get along together well and may no longer wish to speak to each other. These commands let you block (and unblock) all communication with certain players.
• converse - This command puts you in a special "converse" mode, where everything you type is interpreted as a "say".
• overthrow, plea - These two commands allow special interactions within player guilds; see their own help files for more details.
• kudo, rpscore - We have a system where you can reward another player for good roleplaying - "kudo" them when you like what they do, and check "rpscore" to see your own kudo points.
