(See the best response by Kaiochao.)
Code:
mob
verb
Worldsay(msg as text)
world << "[usr]: [msg]"

Say(msg as text)
world << "[usr] say: [msg]"


Problem description:I'm wondering how to make the Say verb announce to only the people in view.

This should work.

mob/verb
    World_Say()
        var/Text = input(src, "What would you like to say?", "World Say") as text
        if(length(Text) < 2) return
        world << "[src.key]: [Text]"

    Say()
        var/Text = input(src, "What would you like to say?", "Say") as text
        if(length(Text) < 2) return
        hearers() << "[src.key]: [Text]"

Don't you mean view(8)? If you use oview, it will not include the person who used the verb.

Even better would be hearers(), which only generates a list of mobs ;)
