    There's an old thread here about this. Not much there, though. A few people assuming it's macros (when, in this case, it wasn't), and no real resolution or fix.

    If you are using <t>/<tt> macros, it's pretty much guaranteed to happen at some point. Individual macro lines are sent to the server one after another with not much processing. If you've got <t> and <tt> in the same macro, you're going to happen to hit it at exactly the right moment for the server to accept the <tt> and not the <t> while you've got a player targeted. And <tt> will be a monster, and curing a monster means curing yourself. I'm not sure if the new (as of 2.38) /macrolock command would help with that in any way.

    If you're not using macros, it's a freaky mystery, and I don't think anyone's found a reason or a solution.

    I wouldn't take their opinions too much to heart, though it's infuriating when you try your damndest... just to be treated like garbage - Healers and tanks (as well as both of those classes towards each other, sometimes) take the brunt of most of the lashing out that most players seem to resort to. /soothe

    My repose macro keeps activating itself. I have it set to mark the target and announce in party chat that I'm sleeping something, so it's rather embarrassing when I suddenly yell out that I'm sleeping the tank.

    I have never mistargeted with the d-pad. Not once.
