Talk:List of slash commands

From WoWWiki

Tip: If creating your own channel, use

/voice <channel> <player-name>

whenever someone joins. "channel" must be the name of the channel, not the number.

Commands needing updating

A couple of notes here: I found that tells (/w, /t) does not seem to affect language, despite it showing your language spoken. Also, /dnd will not prevent you from getting tells. It will, however, autosend a message back to the player. This becomes useful if you want to talk to some people, but not wishing to be bothered by others. i.e. a resto druid wishing to look for a group can type "/dnd I am resto, not a tank."--slxception (me/speak) 08:38, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Except that bliz doesn't support the user made messages. "/dnd" is all you can do, if you were to type "/dnd I am resto" you would receive an error message. {T/C) 19:33, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

nvm, I was thinking of /afk. {T/C) 19:42, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

My account is expired at the moment, but unless they changed it recently, "/afk Not really AFK, but I'm a noob and don't know about the whole /dnd feature" should send all the text after /afk to the person whispering. A couple months back I think, I used "/afk making a sandwich" more than once. I don't know what the other guy saw, but it did echo a line in my own messages indicating that it should do so.

Hmm, whenever I used /afk "and a message" I didn't get an error message, but also nothing happened. I even tested it back in the day, the person never got my message just the standard, player is afk line. I'll check again, it has been awhile since I've tried. {T/C) 20:47, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

As you can easily test on live by /w yourself, both commands work as intended with arguments. /afk <msg> tells anyone whispering you your message as well as /dnd <msg>. I'll update both in the main article. --Thalur (talk) 20:36, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Unlisted

Isn't there a command to release spirit? A bug where no window (and thus button) appears seems common lately. I recall reading something somewhere about such a command, but maybe it was for the upcoming patch (2.4.2 atm) --WoWWiki-Falos 00:41, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

I can't find the post in the Bug Report forum right now because the search function is busted, but I believe it's /console RepopMe() -- Dark T Zeratul 00:46, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

I went back and checked - it's /script RepopMe(); -- Dark T Zeratul 12:21, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Friend notes

Since 2.4.0 and addition of friend list notes, /friend <toon> also accepts optional parameter [note]
