You can't /flirt while moving

You need your character to be stationary in order to use the /flirt emote.

May I ask why?

Do you usually run at full speed when flirting with people?

What’s the point of flirting if you can’t see the animation… and why in the world would you like to flirt while running?

There’s a voiceline attached to the emote, and you can read it in chat anyway. Many emotes in game have neither animation nor voiceline, that’s just how you do it: you read them in chat.

I’m a very big user of the auto-run hotkey. It’s bound on “R” on my keyboard.
So, in dungeons for example, between 2 packs of trash, I will auto-run to the next destination and /flirt with the tank. I do that all the time.

chicks dig that “out of breath guy covered in sweat” look in a guy when trying to ask them out. trust me on this, i used to have a girlfriend. :+1:

I know that, I use the /flirt emote too; but I mean we got an animation Why would you like to “cancel” it?

Then blow a kiss to the tank, that’s way better.

Edit: well that has an animation too but as far as I remember running and kissing doesn’t cancel the animation.

I’ll give it a shot today. If this doesn’t work out I’m never taking your advice again

Then make the animation mobile ? Just like the train one and a few others ? There is absolutely no good reason why we can’t flirt while moving.

Isn’t flirting while running called harassment?

18

I think many of the lines which go with the emote are harassing enough.

Imagine if the /dance animation would be mobile. If you see the /flirt animation you can see your character feet together while putting her/his hands together etc, that would look weird if you could run in my opinion.

What’s your point? Did we ask for the dance animation to be mobile?
