Don't put auto start music / video in there please.

You can also use the following commands and tags:

"/me" at the beginning of the input box will turn that message into an action. ie: "/me picks up a rock". Becomes "Celestia picks up a rock."
" : " does the same thing. "/me's" and ":'s" works as well for adding 's behind your name in the action post.
"//" at the beginning of the room will automatically turn the message into an Out of character expression by adding "bubbles around the message. i.e.: "//Hi Everyone!" becomes "(( Hi Everyone! ))"
"!#d#" is the comment for dice rolling. For example, !3d6 would be to roll three six sided dices. It can be any where in the message. Each message, however, can only have one dice command. Dice are limited to at most 9 at a time, and at most 256 sides. There is no +/- modifier support at the moment.
