ASK SAY SAYTO TELL WHISPER SHOUT HOLLER

Usage: say | shout | holler <string>

tell | whisper | ask | sayto <player> <string>

The shorthand for say is '<message>.

If you consider communicating with other beings, you might be understood

better if you start your sentences with either say, tell, whisper or shout:

SAY sends a message to everybody in the same room as you.
TELL sends a message to a specific player anywhere in the mud and can not
be seen by any others.
WHISPER sends a message to a specific player in the same room as you and a
message to all in the room about who whispers to who.
ASK sends a message to a specific player in the same room as you. If you put
a ? at the end of a say, the code also changes the word 'say' to 'ask'

automatically.
SHOUT broadcasts your message to everyone in your geographic zone.
HOLLER broadcasts what you say to everyone in the game but costs 20 movement
points.

You must be level 2 before you can use shout and holler.

Examples: say Hey, does anyone know how to get to Oz?

tell Jane hi, how are you?

ask Tarzan hello, how are you?

You can use ' as a shorthand for say, as in: 'hello there
