Are macro keys ok to use like for clicking or pressing w instead of me?

[xRegency]

No, it does fall under the no hacked clients rule; [1] No Hacked Clients

But what about physical-mechanical lock/press? as I cant use my mouse integrated circuit.

If it can offer you an unlegitimate advantage,no,even if you don't use it agaisnt others.

So if I place a "brick" on a key or my mouse button to lock it in place is alright?

I consider it a hardly defined line but how I personally define it is by if it’s a modification to the game, unfairly benefits you compared to others, or if it completely automates a process.

 

There is no difference between using a macro or place a ”brick” on your mouse. I think this is minor enough to be allowed, and i know tons of people who uses a weight to hold a key down when doing SF3. And we can’t ban for something that small  and as it’s not any modification, or big advantage, or full automation then I think it’s fine.

As long as you don’t use macros to automate more complex mechanics in the future as here is where I draw the line.

 

I mean, you’ll be using auto sieves soon enough anyways.

Thanks for the help now that I know its not something illegal to do I can breathe easily.
