> $e - he, she or it, depending on sex of player
> $m - him, her or it, depending on sex of player
> $s - his, her or its, depending on sex of player.

> SOCEDIT NEW epoke

> SOCEDIT cfound epoke You poke $N's eyes out!
> SOCEDIT vfound epoke $n pokes your eyes out! Ouch..
> SOCEDIT ofound epoke $n pokes $N's eyes out!
> SOCEDIT cself epoke Being bored, you poke your own eyes out.
> SOCEDIT oself epoke $n pokes $s eyes out!
