During the OOC chat of 12/03/2016, Kinaed said we could use think almost like emotes, using:
I tried, and, in my opinion, failed: I am wondering why we don't imply use the same syntax in thoughts than in emotes.

There are two reason I personaly don't use much the think command:

• I'm not familiar with its syntax (I tend to add /self, /targets, and quotations marks).
• I rarely can fix a thought in a sentence. Most of the time, what I believe my character think is not that explicit, more confused or hesitant.

That seems to work perfectly in my eyes, be easier to use since it is the same old syntax than every other emote, and, I believe, offer us more freedom to formulate our thoughts.

I believe the sintax would be:

think , /self's mind is a mess.

Or, since that might output weirdly, you could just use:

think , feels like their mind is a mess.

It's easy once it's understood.

Actually, the correct syntax seems to be:
That is nonetheless a hack, considering the space before the "'s".

And, imho, the comma is not intuitive, especially when we could use the same syntax than all emotes.

The comma is a standard for lots of places. You can use it in some of the ooc channels as well:

ooc , loves pumpkin pie

echos

Gerolf loves pumpkin pie on the ooc chan.

I would suggest using the /self reference or using non-possesive tenses.

As a (formerly) frequent thought-stealer and sharer, setting think up to use the same syntax as an emote would make the most sense.

I agree, I'll alert Az to review think again and change it to match the general emote syntax. The problem is that thinks are just funky in terms of the number/types of cases involved, whereas emotes are very straightforward with a single perspective.
