Ok we're overreacting a bit here gang...
The OP had a very good point, and your love of Keyclone (Which I hold as well) is leading to unfounded speculation and accusations. (most big words ever in a sentence by Boom.)
We are always walking a fine line as Multiboxers. You can NOT deny that by playing 5 accounts at once, gives you a huge advantage over your next door neighbor who can't afford to pay for more than one. Period. WoW is so far ok with this. We love it, but the line is fine.
So when Blizz openly tells us it doesn't want software making decisions for us, the Round Robin feature becomes a valid concern.
I agree, that due to simple macro functions (,,spell,,) this makes Round Robin initially sound trivial. But you're not looking at the big picture here.
First off, we are not the norm. Blizz didn't design the macro system to allow players to coordinate spell-stepping among multiple players. But it works that way for us because we control multiple players at once. Round Robin is a very STUPID AI. But it's an AI none-the-less. Because I have it, I don't have to remember which of my 5 players should Earthshock next... while anyone playing one toon with others, has to work that out themselves. (think Tranq Shot rotations in the old days or interrupt rotations today with Shade of Aran)
So don't be so quick to wail on this kid's junk. I totally see why he'd be concerned about this.
For now, I don't think we have to worry, but I don't want harsh attitudes to discourage discussions like this in the future.
Thanks,
Boom
