Emote target distance

[Thulghor]

I figured I should ask here before assuming it's a bug, as it might be something on my end, but is anyone else having issues with emotes (and sometimes quest keyword triggers) requiring you to be really close to the target? Like, laughably close. It seems like if I want to trigger quest text, I have to nearly face hump the NPC in question. Or if I want to do a /bye emote, or /point, I have to get uncomfortable close to the target. I thought this was just an ogre thing, but it's also an issue on my human SK.

P. S. Was the /slap emote classic, or added later? If it was classic, it doesn't seem to work.
