Would it be silly to make the death animation into an emote for those "drops dead" moments? :p

No.. but sadly this is something that has been asked for many many times, but SE seems to be against the idea. For... reasons..like.
THAT was NOT Implied!!!!

Lol I didn't even think of that.
Imagine playing dead in PvP and scaring your healers that have nameplates turned off.
...actually now that I say that, please give us this.
Can get panties shots just fine without it.
Am I the only one who is bothered that we only have one faint animation?
It's a strange reason to avoid adding something. Just because a minority of players would abuse it there's plenty more who would make proper use of such an emote - and if they're truly so worried about people doing 'naughty stuff with emotes' then they head to Balmung and investigate the culprits standing around in the Quicksand. That's where those sort of players gather - but I've never seen anything done about them.
I'm pretty sure a few other MMO's have 'play dead' emotes anyway.
You can already get pretty terrible screenshots with /psych, /doze and /surprised, but I don't see SE doing anything about that. :p Miqo'tes and hyurs have it worst. /scarred4lyfe
While at it, a gobal skill to kill your character would be fun in raids, since it's no use going on with both healers or tanks dead, why not kill yourself in a funny way?
Yes please! In FFXI finding dead people in Lower Jeuno was hilarious. It's impossible to kill yourself in town in XIV.
That was usually the result of a failed Dynamis run - it was hilarious to suddenly see a big pile of bodies materialize on the steps to the Residential Area. :p It's just an extension of seeing someone who failed a duty here, although it was far more extreme then. ;)
