    How much the macro annoys debends a lot about the wording. Simple line that says "berserk used" is quite fine. Even if it says "berserk used, removable debuff in x seconds" it's bearable, and explains itself to those newer players who don't yet know exactly why berserk is announced. However, macros that go to "please use leeches or esuna on me in x seconds" start crossing the obnoxious line, even worse when sounds are used. They trample right over the "useful info" to "I'm telling you how to play your class"

    If you say 'pls' because it's shorter than 'please', I say 'no' because it's shorter than 'yes'.

    If i'm in a group of friends i can reliably count on to remove pacification, i don't use a macro. If i'm in PF or DF you're damn right i'm using it, as through testing i've now found that 9/10 times i will not have pacify removed if i don't have the macro. Noisy - check. Reminder - check.
    There's not even much excuse for it NOT to be cleansed now, we have all healer options and also paeon to remove. I'll stop using my macro (telling people to do their job essentially), when people stop not doing their roles expected task.

    People shouldn't have to be asked to do their job, they should be actively looking for those things related to their role.
