Game macros stopped working

I was playing my druid and all of the sudden I couldn’t do any dmg on any of the keys I have bound to a macro. /reload fixed it while I was in an instance but it didn’t help later on. After killed the game and starting over the macros started working again. They are simple macros, like make sure I’m in bear form.

/cast [nostance:1] !Bear Form
/cast Swipe

that macro may or may not put me in bear for but swipe wasn’t happening. This macro was working but just froze up. restarting the game seems to be the only good fix. It’s almost like whatever you do don’t SPAM your keys, although the first thing you want to do when your guy isn’t casting is spam the keys.

/reload just doesn’t work sometimes… you have to restart the game.

Maybe they disabled them to stop bots/multiboxers from from ruining the game for the rest of us?

They would have put that in a post if they did something that drastic.

@OP have you tried without your addons enabled?

swipe ( which was on a macro ) and thrash (which wasn’t only any kind of macro ) stopped working for me in a dungeon today. Making this bear fairly useless except I had a wicked high dps team and I didn’t have to quit the group. everything else seemed to work but without the first two it’s hard to build up rage. a few minutes later in the same dungeon they just started working. when I left the group I couldn’t do anything to the target dummy, it kept saying I didn’t have a target , which swipe and thrash don’t need targets.

ugh.
cant even remember how many times this has happened to me.
It gets REALLY annoying when youre healing in a 5 man and suddenly your help/harm macros are all dead.
Ive had to apologize and pull out so they could get another healer a few times over it.
