Fixed, there was an approval process setup, enabled registered users to not have that approval process.

Macro Info that every Bard should see:

In order to cut the number of keystrokes/clicks it takes to start each song in half, make yourself 8 macros, as below:

/stopsong
/cast [1-8]

And then bind the keys you want to start your songs with to those 8 macros.

To cut down even further on keystrokes, you can make two-song macros as well:

/stopsong
/cast 1
/pause 30
/stopsong
/cast 2

Activating this macro will cause you to stop your current song, start song 1, and then after a wait of 3 seconds (the casting time for all songs), start song 2. Just make another for songs 3 and 4, and you can twist 4 songs with 2 keys!

Note: If you find your latency is especially low, you may need to increase the pause to 31, in order to avoid cutting off the first song of the macro.

Some informative posts I read before rolling my bard. Not sure if there are summaries of the posts but maybe you can add some sort of forum index for helpful posts?

For better bard Macros:

Code:
Page2Button6Line1=/stopsong
Page2Button6Line2=/pause 31, /cast 2
Page2Button6Line3=/stopsong
Page2Button6Line4=/pause 31, /cast 5
Formatting is a little poopy because it's a copy/paste from my .ini file, but it basically combines the pause and cast lines and puts them on the same line. Plus I don't think pause 30 works, pretty sure pause 31 is required.

Cool site - i'll keep an eye on it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] - Suggestion though: Make loot tables / location markers for smaller bosses. For example, Maestro. I know Zam doesn't have his old loot table.

Quick write up for dark elf newbies if you wanna add to the site because I'm bored at work :P

From Neriak entrance, head northeast (not sure of the actual dir, but speaking as if your back is facing Neriak) to the "newbie log". ...
Southwest, actually, but it doesn't matter since no newbie is going to have sense heading worth a crap [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
