/macro

Actually, they will make the macros class/job specific in the future. Which means, once you change class/job, your whole sets of macros will change accordingly as well.

I'm not sure I understand your /macro command too, I either never used it when I was playing FFXI years ago or it simply was not there yet.

It was fairly new.. Macros being job/class-specific will largely fix my issue, this was just a way that (I think) would be easier to code in the short-term.

Thanks for the info.

Class specific macro's would be annoying in my opinion, mostly due to the fact that I use them to change classes, It'd be a pain to make and change the class changing macro's for every class. (gear updates included, it'd be a bit of a hassle.)
I personally use a controller, so I can only use the macro bar while keeping a shoulder button pressed, so I won't accidentally use it.

Still I suppose if you use your keyboard and macros there might be cases you press ctrl instead of alt or something and use the wrong macro bar.

Unless there is a little option in the macro creation window that stickies the macro in your bar, regardless of the class change.
That could easily solve the problem.

I, too, use some macros for all classes (for example, emote macros).
