Identifying Player(s) Server by Macros - NA Edition

[Alistaire]

Why do you want to macro to let people know which server a person is from in the first place? I just don't see the point in it personally.

That's not what he's saying at all...

The joke is that certain servers attract certain types of people and you can guess a person's server by the type of macro they use.

Oddly enough I don't see "Balmung's cats" on DF that much... or even any Balmung player at all unless it's reset day. I guess people there don't like PvE that much.

I'm a tank from Marlboro. My provoke macro is, "Hey, <t>! Hey! Hey! Hey! Listen! Watch out! Hey! Oh. You're provoked!"

WHOOSH!.... So high overhead.... Pretty clouds!

[Rysir]

Whoops! Looks like I have been tanking wrong the whole time! I just stutter step when I pull things instead of macros.

[Dualgunner]

Can confirm Coeurl tanks just do the thing, even if its not the right time, just do it, without word

Seconding this confirmation.

I remember this one summoner in FFXI who had this macroed for their Blood Pact attacks, "My blood is my bond! <pet> rip <t> to pieces!" Got to see that every minute.

People think that tank macros are bad, good grief summoner ones are far worse.

"FIRES OF HADES I BESEECH THEE! IFRIT SLAY MY FOES!"
"EARTHEN BASED PROTECTION! TITAN COME TO MY AID!"
"WINDS OF THE NORTH SURROUND ME! GARUDA DISPERSE MINE ENEMIES!"

It's kind of embarrassing to watch.

._. Made me cringe so hard.

Well since I'm in JP server, their provoke macro almost same (I mean just Provoke @ <t> ), but in Japanese language.

I've seen a guy do that once on ST i think.
Speaking of cringeworthy macros, on ST as well, there was some BLM that had flare macro'd on shout so the whole alliance was telling him to shut up and to flare more because he was flaring like once per pull.

damn, syrcus tower was really a cancer magnet instance.

In Carbuncle (almost all Japanese players), the macros are generally very simple. They are all in Japanese, but basically...
"Provoke <t>". is like 90% of the ones I see.

Every now and then someone's says something extra like "Hey, look over here! Provoke" or "Where do you think you're going!? Provoke!"

Just the other day I saw one that said "Rolling NEED on <t>! Provoke!" I thought that was kind of clever.
