Hey Everyone,
I said i'd do it and I am. I'm posting my mage build for those who want to know what i'm using. first off here is the build, you are free to use and improve on it if you so wish. but i've been able to viably play and survive in PvE, PvP, Dungeons, Experts *both classic and SL*, and classic raiding.

Secondly here are the macro's that I use
#show Flame Volley
suppressmacrofailures
Cast Withering Flames
Cast Flame Volley
*button 1*
#show Corpse Explosion
suppressmacrofailures
cast Bone Frenzy
cast Corpse Explosion
*button 2*
#show Countdown
suppressmacrofailures
Cast Countdown
Cast Necrosis
**button 3**
#show Fireball
suppressmacrofailures
Cast Flame Bolt
Cast Fireball
*button 4*
#show Desecrate
suppressmacrofailures
cast Inferno
cast Desecrate
what I fist do is use is button 1 to both cast bone frenzy and place corpse explosion on the target, then I use button two twice to put on my DoT's, then I use my main Spam button, button 3. which casts both flamebolt and fireball. so it's easy to quick cast your Flame Bolt pops. and once inferno pops, I use button 4 or if I have 5 stacks of deathly calling, so eather way your target dies fast. the other macro, first one on the list, is for my channel spells to make it easy for casting. and save button space.
using these makes it easy to remember your rotation. but it's always nice to come up with your own. that's what I always find fun about this game. makeing the game your own. play in your own unique style. and not subcome to any cookie cutter class.
If you have any questions feel free to send me a tell in game i'm almost always on. have fun and enjoy
