Click the speech bubble to set
your default chat channel. You can
change this whenever you wish
— for example, you might set it to
fellowship when you are questing,
and to Auction when you are ready
to bargain. You can still send a mes-
sage to another channel; just use the
same fl ag (/say, /f, /k, or whatever is
appropriate).

Available default channels are:

Say
Fellowship
Kinship
Output Channel>
Emote
Help

LFF (Looking For Fellowship)

OOC (Out of Character)

Offi cer
Raid
Regional
Trade

(Auction)

CHAT TABS

Click on a tab at the top of the
Chat window to restrict what you
see in the Chat window to that par-
ticular channel. (General displays
all chat.) When a message arrives
that will not appear in your current
channel (for example, a fellowship
message when you have got the IMs
tab selected), a blue chat bubble ap-
pears on the tab of the channel that
receives the unseen message.

The IMs (Instant Messages) tab ac-
tually has multiple buttons, one for
each character sending you instant
messages. Right-click on a button
to create a new chat window with
just messages to and from that
character.

Right-click on a tab to display a
short menu of tab options. They
include:

Rename Tab.

Select this to open a

window and change the tab’s name.

Create New Tab.

Select this to

add a new tab at the right end of
the Chat window. There is not
room to add a tab on the default
window, so click the small arrow-
heads at the end of the tab bar to
shift over to your new tab, or pull
the lower right corner of the Chat
window to the right to enlarge the
window.

Delete This Tab.

Deletes the tab

you selected. (You cannot delete the
General tab.)

Change Filters.

Toggle fi lters on/

off to determine which channel(s)
appear for this tab. You can include
multiple channels under one tab.

Change Text Colours.

This

opens the Option window to the
Chat options, where you can set
the colour for every different chat
channel.

Voice Chat.

Voice chat with your

fellowship is enabled in The Lord of
the Rings Online
. See Fellowships:
Voice Chat

, p. 81.

EMOTES

Emotes are special commands you
can type into the Chat window
that make your character perform
certain actions. For example, if you
type /dance, your character will
dance. (Press any movement key to
stop dancing.) Some emotes inter-
act with your current target. For ex-
ample, if your character, Peony, has
Poppy (another character) targeted,
and you type /wave into the Chat
window, other players will see the
message “Peony waves to Poppy”
while your character waves.

New emotes may be added from
time to time. To see the complete
current list, type /emotelist in
the Chat window, or click on the
chat-bubble in the lower left corner
of your Chat window, then select
Emotes

. Some emotes are actually

unlocked via Deeds.

One unique emote is sitting in a
chair. To sit in a chair, stand in front
of the chair and type /sit. The chair
will then appear under you. Moving
forward makes you stand up out of
the chair.
