Request: Persistent Emotes

[Ryoutoshi]

Please direct me to a better place to put this if one exists.

This is a request for certain casual emotes to be given an option to be used persistently. Examples of such emotes are the "Converse" and "Read" emotes.

Both of these emotes depict actions that one would perform continuously in most situations. We also see several NPCs performing as the request suggests.

As the FFXIV seems to at least acknowledge that RP is a valid method of play I think allowing emotes like these to be used persistently would add a not insignificant amount of life into the day-to-day travel of all players.

Actively seeing players talking to each other, for example, can add more context for the casual observer and is more appealing to a new player than simply seeing several player characters standing around.

That\\\\'s all. Thank you for the platform.

That'd be nice. Maybe add a "loop" argument to the emote? So like if you were writing out a text macro for a custom /em text anyways, it'd be "/read loop". That said, even from just personal experience, converse is my least used emote in a roleplaying context.
