Well seeing as we know that the new emotes are, in fact old, emotes perhaps we could get a glimpse of what other old emotes there are so the community could work from that point on.  Like it was said, there is no better way to learn about something than to strip it down and investigate. 

The lists of emotes to be had is endless really.

Okay, here's one based on an animation that's already in the game. Next time you see Francine, watch her .. she does this cute little wiggle, almost like her saying, "check me out, I'm sexy!" and she moves her hands in kind of an hourglass shape.

I say we call it: /slinky

Trying on clothes would never be the same! SMILEY

So of all the other emotes suggested and requested over the past few years, how many of them were thrown out in the most recent update?

Well with numbers like that clearly we do need to suggest more.

Not a new emote, but something feasible with the current ability and time schedule of the devs, as well as a way to get new mileage out of the old emotes.

/gun

This command allows one to toggle on or off the appearance of their character's equipped weapon, making the weapon model appear in the appropriate hand, or hands. In addition to allowing the guns to be shown in something other than the combat 'mood', this would allow emotes to be used with the guns drawn. For example, /point would cause the character to point at their target, gun in hand. /pointleft /pointright /pointback etc would also benefit from this. The /bang and /bangbang emotes would look a whole lot cooler with real guns, and even the new /rush emote would look pretty neat with a rifle or shotgun held in one's hand.

seriously though, look at the new ones -

They texture in an eyedrop bottle for an emote which i can't for the life of me understand is in game, it's only amusing because of how rediculous it is, they give us wine bottles and pills, - but we don't get an umbrella? - seriously that could be a new off hand item, cue collectors and hours of farming which we eat up and convince ourselves is content. I won't lie, i'd walk around with an umbrella, even though my shoulders get all pointy cause it's really not textured that well.

But miming an umbrella? - That just seems so halfassed. Like they started taking it somewhere and then were like..... ugh umbrella models don't exist except for closed ones in those canisters, screw it no umbrellas. Lame.

Also going along with void's it'd be very cool RP wise to be able to point and hold your gun on people, or have like a two person hostage emote or stuff along those lines. It is kinda of painful to have a animated weapon system but still have to pretend to pull out the gun in your inventory.
