MUCK pose

Most MUCKs feature a pose program. This lets a character send a line to others with his name followed by any message.

For example: pose lands on moose's head and has a think. Squirrel lands on moose's head and has a think.

And moose might: pose is glad *somebody* is having a think around here. Moose is glad *somebody* is having a think around here.

Pose is usually available by typing a colon (:) instead. Pose is closely related to say, which includes quotes or some normalized formatting.

Some MUCKs allow to pose out of character (OOC pose). The command for this is either the double colon (::) or the ooc command followed by a colon (ooc :).
