I have a spell bound to a trinket so ill always use trinket on cd. I found a script macro that goes:
/script UIErrorsFrame:Hide()
When i tried using it, i got an error saying “use of scripts may cause loss of gold or items”
My question: what gold/items will i lose? Is there another macro i can use to prevent gettin an error message saying “item on cooldow” as i spam this macro that doesnt use a script?
That warning is there because there was a short time where people were tricking other players into running scripts that would automatically trade their gold/items to other players (usually the one who gave them the script in the first place).
It’s not like ANY script can cause that – only scripts that are written for that purpose.
It’s just advising you to be careful about what scripts you run, and make sure you know what any such scripts do before running them.
In this case, the one you showed should be fine.

Is this the first time you’re ever running a script on your account? You should only see that message once.
Also, I hope you also have /script UIErrorsFrame:Show() at the end of your macro or you will never see any errors again.

Yeah, like Wog said, make sure to put the show one at the end as well. Your structure will look like this:
/script UIErrorsFrame:Hide()
/DOSTUFFHERE
/DOSTUFFHERE
/script UIErrorsFrame:Show()
