Only allow emotes to have a chatlog message once per ten seconds.

Please. It's ridiculous when I have to search through my chatlog to find stuff when I see "X slaps Y" twenty times.

Chat filters are your friend in this case. I recommend learning how to organize your chat. For your quick reference though, go to Character Configuration > Log Window Settings > Log Filters (for your desired channel) and uncheck the boxes for Standard Emotes/Custom Emotes as desired.

If you're an RPer and use emotes yourself, then that's on you.

Side note: Wish I could filter messages by players below level 10. RMT in /shout and /say is a pain.

Lol I feel your pain. Limsa is absolute cancer. I'll AFK for 14 hours, come back and my chat log will be spammed right up its ass with rmt gibberish and people spamming emote. Like, these people do know they can turn off emote messages right? RIGHT?????

Sometimes the emote spam is worse than the rmt and then it's those same people who love to complain about the RMT, like whàaaaaaaa?

I'd be more happy with the sound effects of emotes only going off once every 10 seconds. Having to hear a Lalafell spam their laugh over and over and over makes me want to reach through the screen and rip out their windpipe.

I've seen people do emotes with no messages before but I never knew how to turn them off. I don't use a lot of emotes personally anyway but I have some friends that will just sit there and spam chat with emotes when we're all hanging out. >< It gets really annoying sometimes.

Servers don't really lag from people being AFK or not.

If you open the Emotes interface window, there's a box at the lower right that is filled in, uncheck that box to stop the display of the messages associated with your emotes.
