I doubt this is a bug but i feel it deserves a little attention. I posted it in the Bug Report section. I'm hoping to have other players opinions on the subject. Or maybe we can get enough people to cry about it and SE will get scarred and do something to help some of us out.

Pressing a macro cancels any previous one. It only processes one at a time. i.e., it's working as intended.
They've specifically gone out of their way to make it so you can't chain macros together in perpetuity, so yeah using one macro cancels another.
DAmn, didnt know that. Normally I don't use macros. Now im wishing there was a sepret timer system u can use with "<se.#>" sounds. If i had that I could watch more of the animations in a fight rather then the Target Bar and Hotbarss for cds and dots. I could go by sounds instead. Might be asking for to much but it would only help, its not gonna hurt anyone.
make the target debuff bar bigger.. i dont have an issue seeing it once i did that.
If you really want at least one macro not being cancelled out, using the /macrolock will force that macro to run until it ends. While the macro is still running, any attempts to use another macro will be nulled. You're basically locked out of using any sort of macros until it ends which can be a problem if you use more than one macro. Other than that, all I can say is to watch the enemy's target bar since you're going to be targetting it anyway. I personally use macros on my Ninja just to alert me if the mudras are off-CD since I sometimes forget about its existance. oAo;;
