    Default Macro prank

    WARNING: DO NOT TRY THIS MACRO!!!

    While browsing the UI & Macro forums at work, I came across someone asking for help with a spam macro (one of those annoying ones that paints an ascii picture). Luckily, no one seemed to come to his aid, and he was generally ridiculed into oblivion.

    However, one smart poster by the name of Anticlaus posted this little gem in response, which I think could quite possibly be the best macro of all time, and it even fits in 255 characters.

    Warning: This macro will reset all your macros, and generally mess up your wow client.

    Code:
    q='LoadAddOn("Blizzard_MacroUI")h,m=HideUIPanel,MacroFrame;ChatFrameEditBox:SetScript("OnEnterPressed",function()SendChatMessage("Durp, durp durp!")end)h(m)m:SetScript("OnShow",h)'for i=1,54 do EditMacro(i,nil,nil,"/run "..q)end;loadstring(q)()
    Edit: Removed "/run" from the macro, because you shouldn't run this.

    What this does is (based on my rudimentary LUA reading skills):

    * Changes all your macros to this script, and runs the script.
    * Makes it so the macro window autohides whenever you open it, so you can't go in to edit the macros.
    * Makes it so whenever you try to chat, you say "Durp, durp durp!" instead. Which also means you can't do anything else via chat commands, like change macros.

    I may have missed some other stuff in there too. I think the only way to get out of this would be a custom addon, or reseting your macros.wtf file.

    A part of me really hopes the person asking for the spam macro ran this .

    I briefly considered putting it as my signature, just to see how many complaints would pop up, but I'm not that mean .
