Yes I really have 20+ of these and wrote them all, they're obscene, but super useful, I don't want to go through it again for this game though. That's ~1/3 of the actual script, and only for 1/20 jobs, considering I left out the includes. Obviously I wouldn't actually use this in game or condone the use of such...

But the OP gives a very nice alternative to it, just having gear slots that we could swap specially "souls" in and out of, I can even see this with a minor animation maintaining the immersion that so many MMO players enjoy, while giving the min/maxers their gear swaps in a slightly different form. Keeping a smallish pouch of souls that I've extracted from my favorite gear.
Unless I completely misunderstood. Yes I simplified the crap out of it too.

No one told you to go out and violate to ToS by using a third-party program to make an excessive macro-list. Obviously not only was it your choice to do it, but you wanted to do it so badly that you broke the rules of the game and risked getting banned to do so. Sounds to me like your all for it. I never gear-swapped more then what one macro would allow me to do for any spell/ability in FFXI.

Ok that does make it seem that this was something I enjoyed, it wasn't at all, and that wasn't what I was trying to convey by posting that, the point is, I don't want to see things like that again. Will they eventually happen? Yes. Let's not encourage it by having another gearswapping nightmare though.
