How will we multibox after /click ,,,,,, is removed in 4.0

[Alemi]

Someone fairly new has a concern about a potential problem and is looking for some suggestions, maybe reassurance about the future. Glad so many stepped up with sarcasm to snobishly put them in their place. Vintage db.com right there.

It wasn't so much expressing concern as was stated, it was making broad generalizations "its become apparent that using ,,,,,,,,,,,, in macros is the staple of ALL boxers." And then the doomsday prophecy (much like the cataclysm - irony?) " The initial blow is going to be crippling, and then over the weeks which follow, it is going to mean the death of so many teams."

If it was phrased an genuine concern and someone looking for guidance, I suspect they would have gotten a better response.

Not trying to defend the jerkiness - but just saying, it wasn't someone coming in with bunnies and rainbows looking for a unbiased response.

That said - click has always felt like facerolling to me, and I never bothered to use it with my dk/shamans/druid/pallys (or any combination thereof). It may not lead to "max-efficiency-dps" but you make do with what you're given and I prefer to be the one deciding what spell I'm tossing out there. Creative use of castsequence macros, targettarget healing, and multi-keybindings (ex: druid moonfires, shamans flame shock, etc.) have always served well in the past, and they'll continue to in the future. WIth the ease of use for mouse repeating, addons like jamba-proc - make group healing and managing, for example, druid eclipse procs much easier.

We did them before the addons - we'll do them after. Just like we'll do without click. And, if people do have specific concerns, the community will help get through them if they haven't been answered before. That's what happened with WOTLK, that'll happen with Cata. I do suspect posts without specifics, who haven't taken the time to do any research, or fail to use puncuation or capitalization will be dealt with the same level of jerkiness as before.
