GGG please make these two keys

So macro that moves cursor to exit button is ok?

Shouldn't be able to log out to avoid death at all, let alone create macros for it.

I think that you are over exaggerating when you start breaking /oos into 10 separate actions.

Only the macros that press alt and f4 at the same time or drink a pot for you would fall under the 1 action rule. But they are useless as all they do is give one already existing button another name...

Any macro that performs more than one action is bannable, as is anything that sends it based on a timer.

It's fine to have a button that causes /oos, or /remaining or casts an aura, but having a timer to repeat actions or a macro to cast all your auras is not allowed. This is because these are things that normal players cannot do, so they give advantages in terms of playing speed.

Now according to chris /oos macros are considered ONE action. So casting one aura even though it can be broken into a few sub steps is ultimately considered 1 action. Casting 2 auras though is now considered 2 actions etc.

Therefore log out macro (only 1 log out :D) should also be considered one action as is an alt-f4 macro.

A macro that posts a message in 1 trade chat only should also be ok.

Sorry, but a lot of us don't want the game to be easier.

This whole situation is embarrassing for a company that has such great customer service. EITHER BAN MACROS OR ALLOW THEM. No more of this, "ooooh that's not allowed, let me check with king chris". Disgraceful. You look like morons here.

I hope you misread my post.. Are you actually suggesting that not being able to cheese out of your mistakes would make the game easier?

wow. seriously, GGG needs every employee to be on the same page about these things, there is so much confusion just because you guys are confused about your own rules.

also, people abuse the logout macro by making it also spam potions before logout. and you praise those people in announcements. get your shit straight and make rules clear and enforce them

yer a little aggressive for such a minor thing in life but... yeah a post on allowable macros would actually be a fun read from GGG.

my only thing is that logging out is needed for almost everyone in invasion league, especially self find item people like me.

and oos also... both are so common it just seems everyone should have access to them from a GGG created key, not some macro we have to develop as players, player after player after player...

that's a lot of man hours wasted when they could just do it.

oh well.

but the GGG allowable player created macros list would be cool from GGG... might make a few off the list myself

ggg define 'action' please!

------

ggg has a flawed logic, /oos macro actually consists of more actions:

- pressing enter (to open chat)
- pressing / key
- pressing o key
- pressing o key
- pressing s key
- pressing enter

they are in a tricky situation, they should ad an ingame key / shortcut for /oos and completely ban all macros, not that i would want this to happen though

another thing is that they haven't even officially decided on this amongthemselves, hence the confusion

THIS! Adding something in game that everyone can use is amazing. That way there is no questions about using what is legal and what is not. Having an /oos key would be EPIC!

Logging to avoid death is so terribly cheesy I hope when you loggers all die the devil will feed you nothing but cheese
