What is the significance of the "Slap" action?

[Palehood]

If somebody whom you don't know used the /e slap action on you, is there usually a meaning attached? If there is a friendly meaning to it, I wouldn't want to misunderstand that it is meant to be hostile.

As far as I know there is no universally understood deeper meaning to the slap emote.

Maybe someone just learned of its existence and wanted to play with it or maybe it was RPer with an elaborate story playing out and you just happened to be nearby and got used as a prop.* Lots of possibilities but I doubt there was any deep meaning to it.

 

*I don't RP so that might not even be a thing.

It's just a flavour adding emote. There's no actual meaning to it and remember, it came out before Will Smith made it to Oscar night!

Not much to read into just pretend this is 2013 and your day will go about swell.  😁

That one was too easy.  Totally overdone.  Even Chris Rock wasn't impressed.

If someone does /e slap, just reply with /e getsome.

I save the slap for certain contacts (Synapse being a favorite). 
 

Mainly because I can’t slap myself.:-)
