Five macros that will make your life easier

Identifying with one click is not a built in mechanic to be a time sink. I can not say with 100% certainty but I'm almost positive the dev's never thought of it as a time sink either.

When I was talking about pressing a key to sell stuff I wasn't talking about copy and paste. I have a sidewinder keyboard with buttons on the side that do /oos, /itemlevel and will put what I'm selling in chat. No different than what some of these macro's do.

If I had to guess you are the type of person who can't stand anything but vanilla game and probably can't stand the thought of people using mods and what not in games. These types of macros is a smarter way to do things plain and simple.

I'm done with this thread however.

Just for the record though these macro's do not give a edge to anyone over some one who doesn't use them. They are a convenience and that's all.

What reason is it then?

game progress takes more time for everyone. you're now bypassing that with scripts, third-party help. now go off on some random tangent about operating systems and how my Recycling Bin is also a third-party program that can effect PoE.

Misinterpreting my words might be satisfying for you but definitely isn't interesting, let alone relevant.

I wanted to hear the reasons of text commands being an intentional time sink. I can't think of any and as I can see you can't either. What's the point of claiming they are intended to be that when you don't even believe it yourself? Have you read the ToS? I feel like you haven't and work with assumptions more than anything, and it's not helping.

thanks for not caring about PoE and allowing yourself and others to cheat

enjoy your computer game entertainment

You consider this cheating? Lol, this is nothing, wtf.

I could give a shit less either way whether people want to automate various things or not, but im pretty sure its explicitly against the rules.

it isn't. the closest thing we have are some things Chris has said in interviews; specifically, he said that multiboxing is fine on the condition that you don't have any program cloning your mouse/keyboard movements, which would be cheating (in other words, manual multiboxing okay, isboxer no good, although isboxer was not specifically mentioned). however, any specific policy on the nature of enforcement, the severity of punishment, or whether macros fall in the same category of "cloning your movements" is a real gray area right now

this is one area where im truly disappointed by ggg. i figure at least they could take a moment to give some better details on their stance on third-party automation; they clearly are against it in general but not nearly enough detail to clearly determine intent on many issues, including this one

...if i'm still dying in "desyncs" after the release of poe, the oos and logout macro are of course justified.

I hear blizzard makes lots of games for people who can't push buttons fast enough.

OP got banned so...I wouldn't try his macros if you don't want to lose your account.
