GW supports a subset of Unicode. You can copy-paste some symbols from another application to the chat line.

Let's see if this works here. Typing 266a and Alt-X in Wordpad produces the Unicode symbol ♪ which you can add to your normal chat to 'sing'. Have fun trying other codes for nifty symbols

There are restrictions to character and guild names, though, and you must have a Chinese/Korean/Japanese account for respective names.
