Hello, I try to play a bard...or rather I deliberately play a pretty god awful bard IC. Â I use macros fairly extensively but Like Odette had surmised above one has to still manage to interact with the situation at hand lest the macro seem stilted. Â If you take the trouble to learn the process you can customize the macros pretty fast (a weak but viable solution) or you can break a routine into a great many macros and use the moments in between clicking them off to clarify, amend or specify elements (this is the process I have come to use). Â Also, given different environments, different styles of presentation become more or less appropriate. Â Given a large gathering with lots of different rp tracks going on, leaping in with 50 lines of successive posts is difficult to deal with at best and inconsiderately distracting usually. Â In those situations, single large posts are better so that interested parties can choose to read it, and the disinterested can just let it scroll on by. Â If however, one is in a situation where one has the attention of those present, line posting is far easier to follow and gives the illusion of tempo (if you want to get that into it). Â My advice is to master both.
