That's true but some - not all - of the things you're complaining about are not broken. Perhaps you don't like to understand the point, I'm trying to make. People won't listen if somebody (you're not the only one) raises a complaint about a bazillion of things and some of the complaints are even based on wrong facts or aren't real game breakers, cause only a minority abuse it. And putting such things in the spammed general discussion produces more spam. But keep trying if it makes you happy.

It's not a perfect science, nor even an art. Just a painful ongoing process of trying to improve the game and weed out those who seek to spoil it for others.
Seems like I have to install autohotkey and join iron crescendo allies 
What's concerning me is the proportionately high number "no" votes. Gee, ya think there isn't a horde of these macro cheaters out there in game???
Lol. There are a horde of players who have frankensteined their graphics settings in the engine-config so badly the game looks like it's running on LSD, never mind all those who have macroed their keyboards so awesomely they can probably play the entire game with one finger and a thumb.
Macros can be used for a wide range of things. In game where there is only hold or toggle prone, macros can fix it. Same for hold/toggle iron sights.
I use it for logging in as admin(adminlogin XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX) takes some time to type, as well as in programming.
Banning people for using macro programs would be crazy. The right way to do it is to make sure macros can't be used in a malicious way.

I think you need to spend more time getting better and less time complaining.
Since PB allegedly scans users' pc's for illegal processes, it shouldn't be too hard for them to search for certain, common key progression macros being used, like prone-ads-fire, sprint-left-right-left-right, left-right-left-right .... etc. There are probably only about 4 or 5 that are the most common. It isn't rocket science. They won't do it, because they'll lose the COD kiddies who buy $150 mice/keyboards in order to program "noob pwning" macros.
Macros should not be outlawed, because that would introduce a lot of problems.
The game should however be made so that you cannot gain unfair advantages using macros.
There should for instance be a natural sluggishness in how the characters in the game move so that even if you use a macro for movement you cannot move in an unrealistic fashion.

There are a lot of "no" votes because the idea of banning macros through anti-cheat is ludicrous. If you don't want someone zig zagging with their bayo out because it ruins your realism experience, just ban them from the server, or go play in a server that forces tactical realism. As tofupunk already posted, there are plenty of scripts that are beneficial to gameplay without being malicious. By banning those modifications through anticheat (all macros would need to be banned), you are removing options from the game.
Who is going to decide which key progressions are bad? You have no say in the matter because you are not working for PB, so if they decide Hold ADS or crouch are bad key progressions, you can kiss them goodbye. You are putting too much faith in a third party when all you have to do is set up your own server and enforce your own rules.
I'm also getting tired of people throwing around terms like "COD kiddie". It may be a pile of **** franchise, but you still look like an elitist prick when you say it...same goes for ridiculing anyone who likes to buy gaming grade equipment.
And would it consider my Razer game keypad a cheat? I only use single commands on it ( for example, thumb button is melee key).
