Is delay allowed?

Thank you for the link to blue quotes, it was very informative.

The delay is officially "not okay", but it is mostly about GCD and spell cooldowns. I use delay only for /assist macro and only because current targets of nearby characters are updated with some delay. I guess this is against the word of ToS but not against the spirit of ToS: minion character does exactly the same thing as main - picks a target.

Also the idea to split keydown and keyup events is illegal:

"Just make absolutely certain that you’re not making more than one keypress (for the purposes of the word ‘keypress’ this includes a single key press AND release with no delays), or including delays between key-presses with each action."

It works just because, in practice, generating several keypresses simultaneously is not punished.

I'm assuming you're responding to others. I was very particular in that I said leader on key down and others on key up. Each character in that case is still just one action per keypress and this is fine. You can then create your own variable length delay by holding the key.

I'm wondering if I can do this on a single key press:

keydown (Master):

/startattack
/cast Spell

keyup (Slaves):

/assist Master
/cast Heroic Strike
USE IWT hotkey

Is this allowed and is this how ISBoxer does this? IWT + Cast is done at the same time? I couldn't find anything in the docs: http://isboxer.com/wiki/WoW:Interact_with_Target

EDIT: Specifically I want to know if the key-up action you can see up here is OK (or do I need to separate the IWT from it).

I would expect this to be fine the triggering of the actions to be fine. For what you're doing on the trigger, the question to ask is "Could I write an in game macro (or addon) that does that?"
