So with the looping macros going away does this mean peeps will stop afk killing mobs for loot kit parts? It really hacks me off when I'm going to a common spawn of meatlumps or something and find someone afk killing everything. One feller even said on the forums that he did it for 7 days straight and got 2 adhesives. That just makes me so mad I wanna spit.

I have a shuttle ticket selecting macro I'll be losing with the recursive macro nerf. I put a shuttleticket in f1, and then fire up the macro which selects the ticket every 10 seconds, then I go afk for the shuttle wait and get something to eat or drink, or whatever.
It didn't even occur to me earlier that this is a recursive macro, I've been using it for so long it didn't even register.
Kinda sucks, I don't wanna have to sit drooling as I stare at the monitor for the whole shuttle wait

I use a /pause so many seconds ( whatever droid says), /tell Newmoon (sub yourself)SHUTTLE"S HERE!
You get a nice loud beep. If you are away grabbing something, turn up the speakers

As the shuttle's stay landed for a fair while just make a non looping macro that trys to use the ticket every 30-40 seconds. Then as long as it's under 8 minutes until the shuttle arrives the macro should get you on board even with the 35 line limit.

if they leave the ui action toolbarslot command in I'll be able to make a ticket macro that instead of looping just pauses 20 or 30 seconds and selects the ticket after each pause from the same macro ya. I really really hope they don't remove the toolbarslot command
, I use it with my combat alt to equip armor and clothing, for emergency pvp food/drink taking (hit the emergency button and it goes to pane 00 and eats and drinks a bunch of food and equips my psg, and then back to my combat pane), and to switch between my melee toolbar and weapon and my ranged toolbar and weapon.
meh, I don't hold much hope for toolbarSlot tho
