    Default Macros, am I in the clear?

    I got some groups rolling, just dual boxing atm (on 1 PC), and I keep coming up with new macros to try. But here are a few that I have made and just want to know if I am in the clear with these. They are all in game and sent via AHK to the other account, using just a regular keyboard and mouse. I don't think I am breaking any rules here, but I thought I'd still ask others what they thought. Here it goes.....
    ---Little side note using this macro for follow and assist---
    /target focus
    /follow
    /assist
    /stopcasting

    Change lead macro: For switching to the second toon(F1),For switching back(F2) each toon has both these macros, just replace "toon" with your characters names. The one that is on main put alts name in "toon" and for the alts put mains name there

    Main keybind F1 -- Alt keybind F2
    /swapactionbar 1 2
    /clearfocus
    /target "toon"
    /focus /
    /follow focus

    Alt keybind F1 --Main keybind F1
    /swapactionbar 1 2
    /clearfocus

    I got this working fine for me, just is this too many actions in one macro/one key press?

    The Second one is simple and goes on alt/healer:
    /target "toon1"
    /cast "insert heal spell here"

    That should be good, I don't see that being problem. But what if that was say, keybinded to 5 on alt, and on it my main 5 was binded to a spell. So main gets a heal coming while still dps'ing. Is that going in to troubled waters?
    Thanks much in advanced for any feed back, and hope maybe the switching macro is helpful to some =]

    Pushing "5" on your main and sending "5" to your clone is fine.
    Pushing "5" on your main and sending "9" to your clone is fine.
    Pushing "5" on your main and sending "5" and "9" to your clone is fine.
    Pushing "5" on your main and sending "5", waiting a second and then sending "9" is NOT FINE!!!

    You cannot use any waiting commands as that constitutes botting. As long as any action your character (or characters) takes is a direct result of you pressing a key then you are fine.

    Code:
    /cast [target="toon1"] "heal spell"
    You can do it in 1 line and not change your target which is useful for later on when your healer might have a target set to DPS or CC.

    Nice, so as long as I use in game macros and AHK to only send keys (no delay type commands in script just keys) then I'm good to go and free to create as long as they are acceptable commands in game.

    /cast [target="toon1"] "heal spell"
    Much cleaner and added versatility, thank you =]

    And thanks thinus for the responses, very helpful :thumbup:

    Basic rules of thumb...

    *Anything* that can be accomplished through the WoW scripting/macro system is fine per the TOS. If Blizzard doesn't like it then they will simply change the UI to no longer allow it or change how it works (Decursive for example)
    1 action per client per key press is also fine per the ToS. No matter if it's done through software or hardware solutions.

    Any sort of unattended game play, or multiple actions per single key press, or delays or things like that is not allowed.
