I thought a good idea might be to let players define their own list of extended actions in the game.

So you would have a menu like this:

[A] Add action
[D] Delete action
[E] Edit action
[V] View action list
[H] Action help
[X] Return to main menu:

Add action would bring you to a menu that looks like this:

1: Action Name: Yawn
2: player view,?no target?: You Yawn
3: room view,?no target?: (Player) yawns loudly.
4: Player view at target player: You yawn at (target player).
5: Target player?s view: (Player) yawns at you.
6: Room view at target player: (Player) yawns at (target player).
7: Player view at NPC: You yawn at (NPC).
8: Room view at NPC: (Player) yawns at (NPC).
9: Player view at inventory: You yawn at your (Item).
10: Room view at inventory: (Player) yawns at (his or her) (Item).
11: Player view at Floor item: You yawn at the (Item).
12: Room view at Floor item: (Player) yawns at the (Item).
Select line to edit, type H for help, S to save, or X to return to action menu:

after selection it would put you at a input prompt.
Enter Line #: "message"

Delete action would have a menu like this:

Yawn, wink, hump, frown?
Select Action Name to delete or type X to return to action menu:

View action list would just return a list of your custom actions.

the help menu would show the action syntaxs

Would anyone like to see something like that?

Secondly if you want to submit actions for the base game here is the tread for that:

I'd like to see that..however....Players would abuse it.  And/or just make stupid actions

Ya it has a few abuse able qualities to it but they could probably be filtered out.

I would expect nothing less then the most depraved and funny actions generated by this since that would be the majority of the fun.
