Social

As with any Social MMO, Social Features are a quintessential component of Pixadom. 
Players have multiple avenues to engage with friends and peers throughout the Pixadom world.
== Avatar Features ==
There are currently two social features associated with avatar movements.
These are accessible by clicking your avatar, you will see options listed above 'My Profile'.
=== Waving ===
This is an upcoming feature, to be added soon.
=== Dancing ===
Selecting 'Dance' will have the avatar perform indefinitely, only stopping when clicking the option again. Moving around and entering different rooms will not interrupt the avatar's dance.

== Chat Features ==
=== Chat Bar ===
The chat bar the bottom of the screen has a maximum limit of 150 characters per message and messages cannot contain words of 20 characters or more. The two buttons to the right represent the 'send chat' and 'chat history' buttons.
=== Chat Bubble ===
Once entering your message in the chat bar, your avatar will briefly have a white hat bubble appear over their heads, notifying others that you've said something. 
=== Chat Emotes ===
Typing an emoticon in chat causes an emote to appear above the player's head. A bordered chat bubble surrounds the emote, matching the colour of your name tag.
For Non-Supporters, the emote is a black and white. As part of the Supporter perks, Tier 1 Supporters get a coloured variant of that emote, while Tier 2 and Tier 3 Supporters get an entirely animated version.
Below are the current available chat emotes:

=== Chat Colour ===
For regular players, their message appears in white text in the chat history. And for Staff, this text appears in gold.
As for Supporters, it is one of the Supporter perks to have your text match the colour of your name tag, meaning that Supporters have various colours to be able to choose from.
=== Chat Commands ===
Chat commands are specific keywords (always starting with a "/") that can be entered in the chat, prompting an action to be performed in game.
Below is a list of available chat commands.
*/ping - Tests the players latency to the game.
Below is a list of future commands that might be released (speculative and subject to change):
*/whisper command
*/mute command
*/whois command (to see a list of which players are online - this will potentially be a Supporter-only feature).
==Friend Features==
===Adding/Blocking===
The ability to add friends, block users, and manage a friends list is an upcoming feature.
===Groups (Clan System)===
One of the upcoming features in Pixadom will be the ability to have player-created and player-run organisations called Groups, which will incentivise social gameplay. Like any social MMO, such a system often serves to provide players with ways to participate in group-led activities where you can share and maximise on common objectives in the game.
In many cases, exclusive rewards and bonuses will only be obtainable through these group activities, in order to encourage players to be more involved among friends and peers within the game.
===Liking===
Players are able to show their appreciation for another player by simply clicking on their profile and pressing the Like button.
Being liked will prompt an explosion of hearts to erupt from the player, and adds to their Like Counter on their profile.
== Trivia==
*Prior to 16 June 2024, players had their chat message appear above their head. But this was changed due to chat messages becoming overcrowded and hard to read when there were many players chatting together.
**The chat message would match the colour of the player's name tag.
*Dancing was released on 19 August 2024.
**In celebration of the release, Spire held a Fishing competition where the first player to catch a rare fish won a Winner's Trophy. The winner was Mud!
