Let's start a list of any messages that are not correct.  Spells, combat, whatever.  Please post an example of the message, and any other information that will help us fix it, such as if it is from a spell, what spell, is it the 1st person, 2nd person, or 3rd person message that is wrong, ect...

1st person message is the message the attacker (you) sees
2nd person message is the message the target sees
3rd person message is the message everyone else in the room sees

We're close to v0.9, so we need to compile a list of msgs to work on after 0.9

I'll start


Mob combat spells that have "The" already in the spell description display "The The <monster>" to the 2nd and 3rd person.

Player greets another player   i.e. Greet Gardner
Currently does nothing
1st Person "You greet <target>."
2nd Person "<source> greets you."
3rd Person "<source> greets <target>."

Ancestral Guardian, mob # 703, spell # 821
Second person fail message:
ancestral guardian attempts to cast AG Wail on you, but fails.

Fire Toad, mob # 677
2nd person combat message:
The fire toad  you, but you dodge.   <notice 2 blanks between toad and you>

swamp leech  you, but the swing glances off!
swamp leech  you, but the swing glances off!
swamp leech  you, but the swing glances off!

All the glanceing damage (due to dr) show like this.

I was also noticing this message down in the 3rd level crypt the other day. The shades, and ghouls I believe it was.

I wasn't sure where to post this at first... but this looks like a good spot.
