Question regarding EULA

Blockquote
cheats; i.e., methods not expressly authorized by Blizzard, influencing and/or facilitating the gameplay, including exploits of any in-game bugs, and thereby granting you and/or any other user an advantage over other players not using such methods

I am going to be using my Corsair to send a macro to wow which keeps pressing 111111111, and I will then use the gnomesequencer addon to run a rotation on my one key.

Now depending on how the EULA is read this infringes and does not infringe on the cheating laws, as let’s say instead of Corsair I used “Auto hotkey net” and gnomesequencer which on the gnomesequencer forums this is discussed heavily. And quoted as being safe that is strictly using AHK with gnomesequencer even though my corsair would be doing the same thing as AHK.

I want to understand how
based on the EULA having the external/third party AHK, Corsair or razer run a macro to do 11111111111 would “facilitate” my gameplay meaning to make my gameplay easier, which would be against the terms.

However the terms state after this that “and therefore” gaining an advantage over others would define this as a “cheat” if that is the case then this should not be allowed. Although I know, people have been running AFK and gnomesequencer addon for years, and on the gnomesequencer forums it is stated and pinned everywhere that AHK strictly with gnomesequencer is allowed.

I am trying to understand how the only thing I can think of is that it does not give you an edge over other players to run an addon that can run castsequence macros as the “rotation” is not proper and not optimal.

gnomesequencer addon for those who do not know what it does
gse-gnome-sequencer-enhanced-advanced-macros

and I have asked blizzard, and default support script they use is we do not explicitly state they can support third-party add-ons and to read the EULA

This would get you banned in all likelihood. One-button rotations were deliberately disabled by Blizz a pretty long time ago. Using a keyboard macro to repeatedly press a button would constitute automation.

This ^^^ If you can’t do it with the in-game macro maker, don’t automate it with third party software. It can easily get you banned.

One keypress = one in-game action (which can be an in-game macro using Blizz macro maker) per game instance.

Edit - and the reason Support won’t “approve” third party software is because they don’t make or control it. What might be ok today, can easily be modified to cheat tomorrow.

That sounds almost 100% likely to get you banned.

You can’t use auto-repeating keystroke things like that.
