Emotes

Emotes are animations that a player can select for their character to perform. Before Quick Chat was released, emotes were also the only way for muted players to communicate.

Emotes can be activated from the Emotes interface. Emote images that are not blacked out are unlocked, or came as default. Blacked out emote images have yet to be unlocked.

Note: More than one emote cannot be used simultaneously.

Default emotes
These emotes are given to players after the players complete the Unstable Foundations tutorial quest in Lumbridge.

Skillcape emote


The Skillcape emote is unlocked when a player first wears a Cape of Achievement, gained by purchasing one after gaining level 99 in a skill, or completing all the quests to obtain the Quest point cape. Using this emote will perform an emote respective to the current equipped Cape of Achievement, as each skillcape has a different emote.

Subsequently, it can only be performed while the player has a Cape of Achievement equipped. Note that players will have to be wearing the cape, as wearing the matching hood would not enable the emote to be performed. If used without an equipped Cape of Achievement, the player gets a message, "You need to be wearing a Skill Cape in order to perform that emote."

Emote bugs
There are several of emote glitches, for example, you can do the freeze emote whilst lighting a fire. One of these bugs is activated by using the freeze emote beside the Grand Exchange underwall tunnel agility shortcut and quickly using it. It is unconfirmed whether this works on any other underwall shortcuts. Also if you walk and do the same emote the ice appears but your character will not sink into the ground.

You could also freeze the Lumbridge Home Teleport by clicking an emote whilst performing the teleport.

Trivia

 * If a player tries to do an emote while resting they will get a chatbox message saying, "Emotes aren't very restful."
 * If players do the Air Guitar emote then quickly enter a cave or shortcut then they will appear to stop playing the guitar however notes will continue to appear.
 * It was possible to activate the Give Thanks emote and make a fire to turn into a giant turkey, (and at times, messed up) but this glitch was soon fixed by Jagex. However soon after, the glitch returned.
 * It is possible to make emotes in egg, stone or monkey form. Only emote-created items like light bulb or zombie hand appear.
 * It was possible to combine Air guitar with Snowman Dance, resulting in doing the Snowman Dance while playing the Air guitar. This was done clicking the Snowman Dance emote, quickly followed by the Air guitar emote. This glitch was fixed by Jagex, and is no longer possible.
 * Zombie dance is similar to the dance performed in Michael Jackson's "Thriller" music video.
 * Pelting a player wearing the Quest Points Cape with a Snowball, causing the quest logo to disappear from above the cape wearer's head. This has now been corrected by Jagex as it was not intended to happen.
 * It is possible to use the Freeze emote in combat. However, instead of sinking into the ground, the ice will just "slide" off of you.
 * If you use the Freeze emote in highly populated places (like Stealing Creation team pens) it'll look like a Quicksand emote only visible to other players. The ice doesn't appear for them due to lag. This was fixed with the RuneTek 5 update.
 * If you first clicked on Lumbridge Home Teleport, followed by Freeze and Melt emote and then clicking on an monster far away, you will be able to run in a fast burst of speed after the melting phase of the freeze and melt emote.
 * Emotes from random events have now been updated. This occurred on 25 February 2009.
 * The Freeze emote is the only emote to, when having the mouse hovered over it, have a different name in the upper Left-Hand corner of the screen. Even though the emote is called Freeze, it is named Freeze and Melt in the upper corner.(This has been fixed)
 * With the recent (date needed) introduction of the emote-delay limit, players can only do one emote at a time. The limit goes into effect until the emotes' animation has ended. A lot of glitches involving the Give thanks emote, or overlapping of other emotes have been fixed as a result. Attempts to do more than one emote results in the message "You're already doing an emote!".
 * If you whack a person with the Easter Carrot and quickly use the Around The World In Eggty Days then you end up standing still while the smoke appears and then the chocolate egg falls into your hands and you eat it without moving. To others you seem to disappear without doing the emote.
 * While doing the Freeze emote, you can change your clothes and turn into an egg when your character appears to be underground.
 * While chopping a tree, you could select an emote and you could be "chopping a tree with bare hands" or something else. This glitch has now been changed.
 * If you walk and fast click on Zombie Hand emote, then fast click on the map and still walk, you won't do the emote but a hand will appear above you.
 * Due to a hidden update, you can no longer do emotes while in combat, although you can still emote before a player/monster attacks you.
 * After the Custom Cursors update, when the player moved the cursor over the 'Spin' emote, it would show a pot. This is because this update uses the name of the action, rather than the action itself, to identify the image to portray. In this case, the word 'spin' is also used in crafting, when you spin a clay pot. This has been fixed by renaming the emote 'Twirl'.
 * Attempting to do an emote in the Stealing Creation waiting room results in the message, "You might miss the start of the game!"
 * Using the Blow Kiss, Idea, Safety First, Explore, Trick, Freeze, or Around the World In Eggty Days emote in a very populated area, e.g. G.E., Falador Party Room, will result in the item in the emote not appearing. e.g. no heart in Blow Kiss, no lightbulb in Idea, no shield in Safety First, no sextant in Explore, no bats in Trick, no ice in Freeze, and no egg in Around the World In Eggty Days. This glitch has yet to be fixed by Jagex.
 * The Easter 2009 emote has been changed to look better while Prayer icons are active as of 9 November 2009.
 * Due to an update on 9 November 2009 the penguin Spin emote no longer has a Crafting cursor.
 * There was a glitch where the player would sit down and do a Skillcape Emote at the same time. The glitch was made by clicking on the 'Rest' button and fast click the Skillcape Emote. This glitch has been fixed.
 * If you try to do an emote in the Soul Wars minigame, you get a message, "This is a battleground, not a circus."
 * If you're on-board the Pest Control boat, and you do the Thanksgiving Emote and the boat happens to take off, you will be left on the boat until your emote finishes.
 * Before RuneScape HD came out, there was a glitch where if you performed the idea emote then the goblin salute emote it would appear that you were changing a lightbulb that appears above your head.
 * If you do the headbang emote and then click a regular/dead tree it will appear as if you're chopping the tree down with your head.
