As far as not being able to macro for 5 days to get these combats and magery to GM, that is simply lazyness or non commitment. I am a grown man and can leave my computer on for however long I want. I dont have my mommy telling me to shut it down. So if anyone will leave it will be the non commited 12 year olds who have mommy breathing down their neck. The skill gain in my oppinion is nothing less than perfect. I along with other players need that sense of accomplishment, not something handed to me. Thanks for listening.
By your own admission you might be quitting soon, and I completely understand why, but at the same time I have to ask why should IN:X cater to someone like you who might just quit soon, instead of the 12 year olds that will probably be around for a few years if we can give them reason enough to stay?
I'm not saying you're any less of a player because you might be quitting soon, nor am I saying you didn't contribute to this shard, I'm just saying we can't always make only what the 10 year UO vets want to see in the shard when this is the group of players that will probably be quitting slowly.
What I'm saying is we can't allow every suggestion to be vetoed by those who might not be around much longer.
In the years you've played IN:X you've done more then your fair share of macroing and most likely you aren't macroing 24 hours a day anymore. So it doesn't come as a surprise to me you're against the idea of making something easier for someone when you had to do it the hard way. But let me ask you this, where's the harm in making a few select skills easier so more people come to play? I'm not suggesting to make all skills easier, just a few select skills.
Let me know if you still don't understand my train of thought.
