Have Ideas for New In-Game Emotes?
Blizzard is looking to expand the different emotes available within the game, and they're looking to the forums for suggestions. While you can always type out emotes if you want something especially custom, the pre-defined emotes are the only way to express yourself to the opposing faction. So, do you think the the game needs a /learn2play emote? Suggest it here.

/lounge (lay down and pick at the flowers)
/picnic (similar to lounge, only eating)
/sigh (head sinks, audible sigh)
/omg (forehead slap)
/rofl (rolls on the floor laughing)
/hide, /scared (hides head in arms and runs in place, think 3 stooges Curly)
/onfire (holds butt and leaps like Mario on fire with smoke)
/scare (BOO!)
/tea (drinks daintily with pinky extended)
/doubt

When I played Matrix Online, it had /suckitdown which was the (in)famous D-Generation X crotch chop. This is probably still my favorite emote ever.
/pirate - act like a pirate (arrrr sound effect)
/pie - throw a pie at a target

My friend has a funny macro where after killing an alli he runs up to the head of the kill and the macro makes him kneel on his head and emotes "(players name) winks and t-bags (target)"
F-ing hilairious

/killedalt = You killed my alt, now you are going to pay fo it!
So people of the other faction know why they are being griefed to no end by epicced 60.

I know! I know! How about changing the /shake emote to shaking your HEAD instead of your ASS?
That would make many an RPer happy.

/pullmyfinger - oh man that smells!

I can't remember seeing this, but 'yes' and 'no' emotes would be helpful.
/yes -> nod head yes
/no -> shake head no

/alltalk - thinks is pitifull... all talk and no action
/dare - challenges to start something...or shut up
/ninja - (shout) NINJA warning! just stole from me.
I know the last one is pushing it, and I have yet to be hit by a ninja, but I hear it often enough. I would ask Blizzard to have these reports tracked via database then when a character gets "reported" this way a count was kept with the account. (not just the character as the player is the real problem)
Then if some account seemed to be doing this repeatedly, then have some remedial action (Banning from playing without refund of any prepaid account ballance..would be fair...in my opinion)
There would need to be some filter to keep someone from just spamming this (say one report per character/per day).

I think it'd be neat to be able to have multiple dances. Such as being a human and saying /danceorc or dancetroll or some such. Seeing a Tauren dance like a gnome would make my day.

I noticed that the /flirt and /shy emotes are the same gesture. I like the /picnic idea. Also, I notice fancy dresses and tuxs for sale on AH often. How about /Ballroom for ballroom dancing. The style should compliment all couple types. F/M, M/M, F/F. A standard style for both sexes that when exectuted together with coordination, look beautiful. I have dance with many people in-game and this always came up.

an emote that allows you to taunt an alliance after you kill them such as (maybe a little vulgar) /urinate "(player) urinates on (player)'s corpse." That would be nice after you finally get someone that has continuously killed you.
