is the use of macro for skating allowed?

I leave a video as a reference to what I mean beause: 1. I do not see specifically that the use of macro is prohibited in the list of "Banning policy and restrictions of Destiny accounts", if the macros is considered one of the prohibited programs, I would like to see it added to the list and thus avoid future discrepancies. 2. If it is the case in which it is prohibited, I mention this answer that Bungie gave: "No part of the decision to ban your account was related to any macro software. Automating trivial tasks (especially for accessibility reasons) is allowed. Players will only punished for automation when it circumvents challenges all players face during gameplay (auto-aim, trigger-bot, etc) ", which makes me understand as trivial tasks is buying materials or interacting with some npc, which It leads me to think that this is a repetitive action, so by using a macro to do skating I am automating a repetitive action which is not negatively affecting third parties.

  • Doubt it. From the [url=https://help.bungie.net/hc/en-us/articles/360049517431]Ban policy page[/url]: [quote]Bungie regards some behavior to be in breach of the Code of Conduct or the license agreement that governs Destiny, and therefore may be restricted or banned from some or all Destiny content or activities. This behavior includes, but is not limited to : ... - Using an external program or device to automate gameplay or circumvent idle detection.[/quote] I suppose you could try to argue that using a macro to skate isn't using an external program to automate gameplay, but it would be a bad argument.

    • Macros are a cheat. You could get banned for it.

    • Considering you are using it to perform inhuman abilities, I’d say it’s not allowed.
