Keybinds - I need opinions on it from everyone.

[Astaroth]

So guys, as most of us know, Keybinds are considered a rulebreak here. Yes, I understand that some may missuse it to flood, that's why we have the Sauron for, of course.

What I'm trying to say is, I was thinking of a way to make roleplays seem more RPish, and by that I came to a point that adding characters appearance would be pretty interesting.
Then there comes /em being missused for O O C chat, then there's that Argonath has no IC and O O C and it goes on and on.

(Someone made O.O.C preview as "for those without brains" on forums )

So like, what if we added keybinds and use it for basic /me's and /em's that people get tired of repeatedly typing them.
Example:
/em Derp is 5'9" tall, wearing green shorts, a black T-shirt and sneakers. Tattoo on his neck saying: fite me

* Astaroth grabs the door-handle, pulling it for the door to open.

Etc etc etc.
Yes, I really think that keybinds can actually improve roleplays. If you want me to be honest here, most people don't even bother to roleplay taking out a shotgun out of their ass or getting into their car.

I'm only trying to make the staff re-think this decision and think about the things that it could bring.
What's the worse that can be done with binds? Spam another servers IP? If someone wants to do that he will do it , we have the Sauron script and the person gets banned anyways.
So come on guys, give me your opinions here. What benefit could binds bring, what's the worse that can happen if we allow them and why shouldn't we add them?

Might not be the most perfect made topic about this, but I guess you get what I'm trying to say.

As far as I know, keybinds are not allowed in SAMP
(I didn't read the topic though, got it from the subject)
I like the idea

We know, that's why you shouldn't post without reading it.

You should have probably read the first two lines as he has already said that.

- I think that keybinds are indeed a great way to improve roleplay, but one has to know its limits. The reason they're disallowed its because people can use them for their own selfish advantage. To continue with what you were saying, for an example, if I am typing "/me is taking out a sidearm, rising it up towards Derp's head", the other person can easily do the same thing but way quicker and that way, the roleplay is changed in his favour.

I honestly think that keybinds should be allowed though but everything has its limits and it should not be abused. Using keybinds to give a description of what you're wearing, of what the other players are seeing / should see, then that is completely fine.

[Astaroth]

Of course, limits must exist for this too. Only the ab00zers shall get punished. Thank you for your replies, I need more. From staff and players about this.

If you ask me, i support this. I often get sick of typing /me 981712419641942 times

Keybinds help improve roleplay, by how... exactly?

As if the administration already has enough on their plate, they would have to investigate every keybind reports to see if they're valid or not.

What is O O C and IC?

Out of character and in character, oh you know

Well, there wouldn't be reports of keybinds if keybinds are actually allowed now, would there be?
Just, read the topic.

[AK47]

And I bet atleast 50% of the server already uses it, so why not just allow it? :|

I did. Did you?

Which brings to my response:

How pressing a key that will send constantly the same sentence is improving roleplay in any way?
It just makes it more predictable and annoying.

[AK47]

If I walk up to a bunch of people in a roleplay which I never met before, how can "/Anthony is 5'9 tall, 25 y/o, darkhaired, wearing a blue bandana around his head, beige pants, a black shirt. Facetattoos." be annoying?
