Is mapping multiple buttons to a gamepad chearing?

Thanks for that Jeremy, made me smile.

I think if you are mapping buttons to things that are at least relatively possible with in game hotkeys you are fine. If you are trying to make a macro that automate something for you while you are AFK then you would be cheating.

Right, that makes perfect sense. What I'm really looking for though is somewhere where someone like Rogean or Derubael said "this ____ is 'relatively possible' and allowed, but this ___ is a macro/cheating" so that I can put a reference to their quote the wiki.

If no GMs answer this thread, and no one knows of an existing place where the GMs spell things out, then I suppose I can assume that means there is no rule against multiple button mapping. However, it'd be really nice if it were clear exactly what is/isn't against the rules (thus my asking).

Ultimately what this all boils down to is, I don't want to encourage some n00b to map multiple keypress-es to a gamepad button if that's going to get the n00b banned, but at the same time I don't want to scare the n00b out of doing something that the GMs are perfectly ok with either.
