Ugh. Why did she have them speak in caps? Gave up reading it after the first few questions.

One of the players there couldn't see well.

 

[Vor]

Hmm. Fair enough then I suppose.

 

[Capt. Lucky]

Any tamer (insert class) that macros "all kill" all through their question turn should be killed on the spot. Body burned. And question not responded to. Learn to tie your macros to the ctrl key or something

People who have 20+ macros don't want to have to hit control and then possibly a key on the other side of the keyboard. So get over it.

Well they come off as idiots.

Then take a Char that doesn't have all this **** on it. Why is it so damn hard to be polite at these mets, oh I know because people like to be RUDE. DERP

 

[MalagAste]

Well they come off as idiots.

I agree and the boat command person too... I just wonder about people sometimes.

The DEVs took time out of their evening to come talk to folk on LS the least folk can do is be polite and not spam silly stuff while trying to have a serious discussion with the DEVs. Just saying. If you want them to take you seriously then you ought to act like it.

 

[Zuckuss]

I have a macro on just about 80% of my keys. When I am trying to talk in game, I hit the caps lock on, hold shift, and type. It accomplishes two things; Common courtesy (especially to the roleplayers), and it's allowing the recipient to be able follow along with what I am actually saying.

Anyone who pvp's knows that it is a disadvantage to have to tie all spells/macros to the ctrl/ alt keys. If you are a mage, it becomes cumbersome to try to hit ctrl and reach halfway across your keyboard with one hand while controlling the mouse with the other. The best way to go is with a gaming keyboard for the extra buttons... which I of course never use.

Turn caps lock on, hold shift and type.

Which if you use the EC they added the hit enter to type thing first. This way you can type without borking macro's... and you can use all your keys without talking like a fool and spamming things you don't want to when you don't want to.
