Start using CLT#. For example, CLT1 Hello. CLT2 Goodbye. Adds another step in (opens up the door for clan misaethers if you quit clans a lot, but hey-- it cuts org mistells down considerably).
Even better: write aliases (I can tell you how to do it on nexus: have alias "swa" execute "clan swarm tell $0", for example) that will tell to all their specific clans. That way you hardly ever screw up. I can't tell you how to do it on zmud or MUSHclient though.

It's really easy in zMUD. I haven't actually tried implementing it, but it should just be something simple like: #ALIAS swa {clan swarm tell %1}

You say, "What happens when ten Fae are brought to a single Avatar of Moon?"

But that is what happens...

It is. It's cut down significantly on my misaethers. Of course now I have to avoid misaethering between Order aethers and a particular pair of clans... And since I already have the aliases in place for those clans, I have no excuses left except senility!
Edit: The way to do it on cmud is #alias swa {clan swarm tell} and then set it to autoappend arguments.

Just got in from my Art Exam and signed in...
Gehn pounces on you, sending you rolling head over heels with him.
"Hiya!" you say, smiling happily.
Dedicant Nirsen, of the Hart says, "Your wife, i presume."
The corners of Nirsen's mouth turn up as he grins mischievously.
"Erk!" Gehn says with a grimace.
You cough softly.
You say, "No!"
Druid Gehn Mes'ard, Hart's Glory says, "No."
Gehn gives you the once-over, eyeing you suspiciously. You stick out your tongue and say, "Cousin." 4220h, 3980m, 3980e, 10p ex-

Dedicant Nirsen, of the Hart says, "Right." 4220h, 3980m, 3980e, 10p ex-
Nirsen ponders the situation.
Nirsen rolls his eyes.
Druid Gehn Mes'ard, Hart's Glory says, "..."
Druid Gehn Mes'ard, Hart's Glory says, "She is my cousin..."
The corners of Nirsen's mouth turn up as he grins mischievously.
You mumble incoherently.
Gehn thwaps Nirsen on the head.
Gehn tugs his chin thoughtfully.
You say, "We're both happily married to -other- people."
Dedicant Nirsen, of the Hart says, "Sorry, the fetishes thing set me off."
Defensively raising your hands, you back away from this predicament slowly.
The corners of Gehn's mouth turn up as he grins mischievously.
Dedicant Nirsen, of the Hart says, "And she's certainly way more stylish."
Druid Gehn Mes'ard, Hart's Glory says, "We were talking of ecology."
Gehn thwaps Nirsen on the head.
Dedicant Nirsen, of the Hart says, "No, HE was talking of ecology."
Gehn ponders for a moment and says "Hrm..."
Dedicant Nirsen, of the Hart says, "I was just listening and then he shocked my mind."
Druid Gehn Mes'ard, Hart's Glory says to you, "The Hartstone doesn't provide enough novices to beat up on, y'know.." Dain, Nature Guide exclaims, "I do so enjoy teaching the little ones of the Hartstone!" Fluttering his wings, Dain flits happily around the hillside.
Dedicant Nirsen, of the Hart says, "With the F-word."
You say, "Fetish?"
You pet a bone fetish ingratiatingly.
Dedicant Nirsen, of the Hart says, "ARRRRRRRRR."
Druid Gehn Mes'ard, Hart's Glory says, "See!"
Druid Gehn Mes'ard, Hart's Glory says, "Dylara carries her fetishes with her."
Dedicant Nirsen, of the Hart says, "You're just as bad as he is!"
Gehn hums a happy tune.
Dedicant Nirsen, of the Hart says, "No wait, worse!"
You cast a suspicious eye about your surroundings.
Druid Gehn Mes'ard, Hart's Glory says to you, "What is a fetish exactly?"
Gehn tilts his head curiously.
Dedicant Nirsen, of the Hart says, "Just think, that rabbit i saw earlier could have been the cousin of that poor fetish."
The corners of Gehn's mouth turn up as he grins mischievously.
You say to Gehn, "A amalgamation of bones from varied animals and power."
Druid Gehn Mes'ard, Hart's Glory says, "Dylara doesn't use rabbits!"
You say, "An amalgamation."
Druid Gehn Mes'ard, Hart's Glory says, "She uses little Hartstone druids." Dain, Nature Guide exclaims, "I do so enjoy teaching the little ones of the Hartstone!" Fluttering his wings, Dain flits happily around the hillside.
Gehn nods his head sagely.
You chew on your lip thoughtfully.

It's obvious that you didn't try it from the code shown here.
Try: #ALIAS swa {clan swarm tell %-1} or just #ALIAS swa {clt# %-1} Little change but it makes all the difference.

You're right, that's actually the more proper way to do it. Still, it's not required. If no other breaks are defined, zMUD usually interprets all of the following text (including spaces) as a single parameter, so my example works too!

Your example actually works for a completely different reason. zMUD tacks all unused parameters onto the end of whatever is sent to the MUD last. So, #ALIAS swa {clan swarm tell} would work, since it will tack on everything passed to swa to the end of "clan swarm tell."
Aesyra's method though is far cleaner and clearer.

What's worse is getting mixed up between alts. You haven't lived until you say something like Glory be to Glomdoring on Serenwilde's aethers...
Psh! You haven't playes IRE games until you misaethered "Flow target at Mother?" on Shallam's channel. Then a guide would send you a tell saying "Wrong game dear, but you can use Merloch as a portal target to Mother right now."

You are essentially naked, and utterly satiated. You are slightly tired. You are sober and in control. You are completely sane. From the clothing that can be seen, you look well-to-do.

You are wearing: a canvas backpack, a floaty sky-blue cotton skirt, a bodice of sky-blue silk, a sleek wave-embroidered sea blue cloak, pearly slippers of ivory silk.
You are scantily-clad, and not hungry. You are slightly tired. You are sober and in control. You are completely sane. From the clothing that can be seen, you look prosperous.

Lady Terentia swore by the hairs on Malicia's hair and started a discussion. A little while later...
All over an aether, not saying which, but I found it amusing.
Malicia says, "And I can assure you, I'm hairless." Malicia says, "Wait." Malicia says, "That's too much information." Tervic says, "You're bald?" Malicia says, "Not on my head!" Tervic says, "No eyebrows then." Malicia says, "My hair's actually quite long in that regard." Malicia says, "..that too." Malicia says, "No where else!" You say, "I'd stop digging if I were you." Malicia says, "*grr*."
