Hehe, I think to an extent they already are nerfed... The other night I was trying to grind Archtect with my alt so that I can have a little more fun with combat. I had my usual macro that grinds Gungan Heads and at the end it has this final line:


/macro headgrind;


Now, every time I tried to use that macro, it went to this line and gave me message about not being able to use this command. I could type it in manualy all night and have it work just fine but if I tried to use it to loop the macro, is stoped each and every time.

Recursive alias macros don't work when thet call themself. A alias macro will work if it called another macro but it will abort if the 2nd macro calls the first alias macro.

Any recursive macro should still if it uses the toolbar action to loop.

My CoB macro was still looping fine last night.


/centerofbalance;

/pause 34;

/macro CoB;

Unfortunately, the final phase of stopping the looping macros isn't in yet.


Yet another time when the lamers who use looping macros to play the game for them will be able to get ahead.

The cantinas will be filled with people AFK Macroing to gain experience so they can convert it to FS Exp...
