Can't post because level not high enough?

[Tourist]

I'm trying to post for macro help on the user interface forum, but my level 12 isn't high enough to post? I've never heard of a rule like this, nor can i find mention of it. What level do I have to be to actually post for help in the proper places?

Since I'm not able to post in the proper place, I'll ask for help here.

I'm using the controller to play on my PC so i'm trying to get some healing macros set up. I'm trying to get a target of target macro set up, so i can heal and toss a bit of damage out without constantly swapping targets.

I found:

/micon "Cure"
/ac "Cure" <tt>
/ac "Cure" <me>

but it's not working. It doesn't cast the spell at all.

Yea.
The only reason the mods did this was, back during Beta, people would constantly spam the fourums, which made it kind of hard to find posts they really need. Atleast, That's what I heard had happen.

You should beable to post a thread by the time your lvl 25~

And, sorry. I dont know much about marcos...>,>
Bumping, so that OP can get some help~!

Here's the post explaining the posting restrictions.

Are you getting any error messages when you use that macro? What do you have targeted, and what does your target have targeted? Can you cast Cure without using a macro?

The only reasons I know of for that macro to not work at all would be your target's target being either out of range or out of your line of sight. If you don't have a target (and thus no <tt>) or if your target doesn't have a target, it should fail that line and fall to the second to self-cast. If your target's target is hostile or otherwise uncurable, it should self-cure via the first line, then fail the second line since you're already casting.

Well, that being in some situation that won't let you cast Cure (out of mana, silenced/stun/slept, not having access to the skill, etc.).

Thank you for the link. I'm standing in a town, targeting random players that have other players targeted. It doesn't cast on them, on their target, nor does it default cast on me. Casting "Cure" directly does work.

Are you getting any error messages?

Same behavior if you type /ac "Cure" <tt> directly into the chat log?

i get the error:
The command /ac “Cure” <tt> was used incorrectly.
The command /ac “Cure” <me> was used incorrectly.

EDIT: It almost works now. Part of my problem was the quotation marks. Apparently Copy+Paste doesn't exactly work. Haven't yet been able to test the <tt> part yet.

No need for quotation marks when the action is a single word, although you have to place them for actions comprised of more than 1 word. On a side note, in order to avoid writting mistakes, Auto-translation Dictionary feature works perfectly fine.
For the <tt> placeholder, it should work provided that 'target of your current target' is on casting range.

PS. Remember there's the command /mo used to cast actions on targets you're mousing over (both character on screen and name on party list). I've seen many healers claiming it comes very handy.

Thanks for the tips.

I don't use a mouse for this game, as my hand doesn't really allow the intense point & click gaming anymore. I use a controller now, so i'm trying to get macros working to help restore the healing speed i use to have.

EDIT: I don't know if anyone is still reading this, but I'm at another snag. The /ac "Cure" <tt> works if i have a player targeted who's targeting another player. But if I have an enemy targeted who's targeting another player, i only heal myself. Advice would be great.

/micon "Cure"
/ac "Cure" <tt>
/ac "Cure" <me>

Not sure why you have:
/ac "Cure" <me>

Suggestion:
/ac "Cure" <t>
/ac "Cure" <tt>

Would suit your needs?
It will cure any PC/NPC directly targetted.
If target is enemy, then it'll skip to 2nd line and cure target of target.

I tried that and it says "Invalid Target", and that's it. Will try again though, maybe i had a typo or something.

EDIT: Oh, and how to get rid of the annoying error chime and message?
