WON'T IT GET CONFUSING WITH ALL OF US TALKING AT ONCE?
No more than any other chatroom you've ever been a part of. Chatroom Social Based RP does tend to become more like one large conversation happening between a LOT of people (as normal MIRC chatrooms do) and this is okay. If you can pretend you're a mobster, you can also probably handle the idea that 30 or more people can stand around talking to each other.
While YES, the room is big and there are a LOT of people, it's unrealistic to filter out each conversation table by table... and, in all truth, sound travels. So it's simply easier to say that - unless someone is whispering to another character (see the next question) anything you say in the room can be heard by anyone else.
Also, social based events tend to have party games which helps give a reason for why 30 people are seamlessly interacting.
So... in short, take a breath and suspend reality a touch for the sake of fun! After all, you're already doing it to pretend to be a 1930s mobster, what's one more little thing?
I WANT TO WHISPER TO SOMEONE WITHOUT EVERYONE HEARING - HOW DO I DO THAT?
If you were going to whisper to JOE in the chatroom, just type the following code.
/me whispers to JOE
Then double-click on JOE's name in the online list. This will open a private chat window.
Type what you're whispering in that private window.
WHAT IS THE CHAT COMMAND TO CHANGE MY MIRC NICKNAME? WILL IT LOG ME OUT?
No, it won't log you out. If you wanted to change your nickname to bob, here's the code you'd enter.
/nick bob
Now obviously bob isn't what you want to change your name to... so instead of typing bob... use whatever name you'd like to change yours to.
WHAT IS THE CHAT COMMAND TO TAKE AN ACTION?
If you wanted to write that your character was sitting down, here's what you would type.
/me sits down.
Just use the...
/me
Command and then add whatever action you want your character to have taken.
WHAT'S THE CHAT COMMAND TO DESCRIBE MY CHARACTER?
Again you're going to use the
/me
Some players like to keep a description saved on a notepad so they can cut/paste it into the window whenever someone new enters the scene - that way they don't have to keep typing the same thing over and over again.
For example :
/me is a 25-30 year old diminutive red-haired woman with bright emerald colored eyes. Lucy is wearing a red dress ( https://i.pinimg.com/736x/ea/f2/f5/eaf2f55fba7fcf8495b2c0e88589d5af--red-dresses-wish-dresses.jpg )
