Which we ALREADY stated in the FIRST post :S

Well if you want to do that, you'd have to custom name the person.

An easy workaround for that would then to have /"me thinks that (!CN) is an idiot"
Not really, it puts the contacts 'friendly name' like it puts your own friendly name when you type /me

Sorry, but I don't get what you are dismissing about that post weirdal27.


gigablade: maybe, but if people are anything like some people on my list they choose to have long names with things like song lyrics in them. so I suggested (!CN) :p

RE: /you...again
oh, i see what your saying
but if your name is really long or with lyrics in it then its the same as "/me"
if you type /me is cool and your name is something like this:
*-) If Somethings Hard To Do then It's Not Worth Doing *-) Currently Playing >> [Buffer: 62%] WRFL: 88.1FM Lexington, KY (8) (1:53 pm)

then it shows up like this:

*-) If Somethings Hard To Do then It's Not Worth Doing *-) Currently Playing >> [Buffer: 62%] WRFL: 88.1FM Lexington, KY (8) (1:53 pm) is cool

unless im not understanding something

We are suggesting ACTIONS in general...that doesn't mean that you can't just use your custom name for your contact...

/action blade gets into a limo

would become

blade gets into a limo

oh, i guess i forgot to mention that i also had set up a quick text that has "/me" with the alias "/action"

since my name is blank, if i type /action a plane crashes into the ocean it shows up just like you said

We would need to have multi parameters to do that with quick texts:

/happen %(!NP) %an airplane crashes.

would be:
/nick <tab symbol>
#/me (!P2)
#/nick (!P1)
