SE why is shake drink a persistent emote, of all things?

[DiaDeem]

No matter what they do, someone complains about it...

This is freedom, and it's worth any price

System Configuration -> Sound -> Player Effects Volume -> Other PCs -> 0%

Bye bye AFK cocktail shakers, /sweep, random bards playing megalovania.mid and bye bye to the bloody file sound!

tbh my only problem with it is i have other pc volume at 5 AND THE NOISE STILL OVER POWERS EVERYTHING WHY IS IT SO LOUD

[Burmecia]

I think if the emote makes NOISE, it shouldn't be perpetual!

yeah the noise was pretty disturbing when i heard it from every direction for the first time

[Dirwen]

The problem is many people using it then afking cause they know it's annoying.

I'm shocked the tea sip emote isn't persistent, especially considering it's a paid emote.

I'm seriously giving y'all the side-eye at the decision making on hand here. Someone thought it was a great idea to let people set up this shaker and just afk to be an annoyance forever, but we still need to macro wait commands for any lengthy degree of Read, Tomestone, and numerous others. What..?

If you're going to do this with the shaker at least go back and fix the ones that actually make sense.

SQUARE, a mute for this emote please. im sick of hearing it 24.7 in large cities

Just make believe that they are holding maracas and making a little rhythm for you. Dawntrail is the Latin American expansion after all. We need more maracas for authenticity.

In a funny twist, I have my sound effects dialed down by default, so reading this thread was actually the first time I became aware that the shake drink emote makes a noise.
