This Whole Animation Cancel Macro Problem is Getting Out of Hand

I was just playing some PVP in Blackwater Blade when all of a sudden a Nightblade out of cloak hit me with 30 Surprise Attacks and 17 Wrecking Blows all in less than 10 milliseconds. This is clearly due to animation canceling and macros. I know it wasn't lag because the game didn't look laggy when it happened. I don't really understand how a macro works, or what it even is, but it clearly allows players to bypass the game's internal cooldowns so players can use an infinite number of abilities instantaneously.

Please, ZOS, for the love of all that is good and holy, ban these ridiculous animation cancel/macro exploits threads. They are destroying the game.

    ... Is this a joke?

    Serious question actually, because 30 attacks in a second isn't animation canceling, it's actual hacking lol

    While I agree that it can be annoying, but frankly a lot of things can. In the end people should be able to express their opinions even if they're annoying, based on misinformation, or worse.

    Of course I'm not serious. Its satire. I thought the last line I wrote would give it away...

    Don't worry, I've commented in those too, but I figured I'd at least try to be somewhat serious in those responses.

    Hold on. Are we talking earth milliseconds?
    ......and how did you count the hits
    ....and how come the first 3 surprise attacks did not kill you
    .....if all numbers are legit then looks like one Hacker is complaining that was attacked by another Hacker....

    You should seriously check that word up. Mockery, ridiculing and bullying manners are not satire.

    But your smug feeling of being an insider of a circle that unofficially actually own this game is really adding to your credibility.

    I honestly thought he was serious. I mean, there are so many posts/threads on this forums saying "use of add ons = cheats" "i get killed in PvP, this guy must have been macroing"

    Tends to get harder to discern joking players from exaggerating ones ^^
