All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultSocial

public interface Social
extends Environmental, CMCommon

Although at one time a simple public variable object, the Social became an environmental when it became import to be able to pass it as a tool of a message for various purposes. It still retains much of its original awkwardness as can be seen in the method names. Today the social is still mostly a variable storage unit, with a few methods to make use of those variables. A social object exists not simply as one for each social command (smile, wiggy) but one for each social variation (smile, smile self, smile bob). The Name() field holds the full unique name of each social object, with ID only having "DefaultSocial".
