I have copied a macro from and changed after my own needs.
It works fine for some but after a while the buffbot starts to buff itself, ive made the macro to target a mousedroid when there is no player around to buff, just to avoid the selfbuffing issue.
But it doesnt seem to work all the time.
Ill paste the macro here for you to examine it and see if you can solve the this irritating thing for me 
/target (Musafan); ( the mousedroids name )
/pause 2;
/join;
/pause 15;
/ui action targetGroup0;
/ui action targetGroup0;
/say glöm inte att tippa 10000 credits, tack.;
/pause 5;
/say Välkommen %NT. Du kommer nu att bli buffad.;
/pause 2;
/say buffar action;
/healenhance action;
/pause 20;
/say buffar quickness.;

I can't get it to work either. Eventually it always buffs itself.

I think the "/ui action targetGroup0" commands are your problem. "TargetGroup0" would always target the first member of the group, and, from your client perspective, you are always the first member of the group. Therefore, I believe that targetGroup0 is basically a targetSelf, so I would expect this to buff yourself (that is, your buffbot). To target the first member of the group outside of yourself, I believe you need to use a "/ui action targetGroup1."
If you change the targetGroup0 to targetGroup1 in each case, I suspect you will accomplish what you are trying to do, and you will not end up buffing yourself.
This would be the logic:
The "/target (Musafan);" as you noted targets your droid. This makes sure that something is always targeted.
The "/pause 2" and "/join" wait a moment then join a group (assuming it has been offered by the person to be buffed).
The "/pause 15" gives time for the group to form.
As mentioned, the next two "/ui action targetGroup0" commands should be "/ui action targetGroup1." This will target the "second" member of the group, which is the first member of the group outside of your buffbot. If the group was never formed then targetGroup1 will not exist, so these commands will fail, and the target should remain your droid.
From there, you just buff each stat as you are doing and loop the macro. If the group formed, it should buff the "second" member of the group, which should be the player who invited you. If the group does not form, the buffs should fail because the target is still your droid, and you cannot buff your droid. This is why targeting the droid each time is an important step.
I hope this helps.
