You're wrong.

It hurt him. Re-read the log.
> i actually think it is pretty cool of him to think of all those sayings for his role.
And that's fine. Any attempt to roleplay, is, to me, pretty cool. But IMO setting up a client to roleplay for you isn't anything special. Thinking up those emotes does say he took the time to put some thought into his role, I'll give you that.
> why be negative...
I'm always negative. I'm the Umguy. It's in my contract. (Actually, I've attempted to be helpful when someone asks questions, on occasion).
> it seems to me he is doing more for the game than you are.
Actually, you don't know any of my characters, and I'm going to keep it that way if possible. Suffice it to say, I had occasion to interact with him in a non-combat way, and found that he was actually a pretty good roleplayer (at least, in my opinion) but this wasn't whether he is a good roleplayer, it was whether using a client to put your emotes before something every time you do it is roleplay, or one-time creativity. I choose to say it is the latter.
