This issue has been resolved.
Descriptive Problem Summary:
When I updated to version 511.1383 and went to login to my game I immediately hit my OOC macro to say hi to other players and noticed it wasn't working so I went to the Macros section and noticed a lot of macros were deleted so I reset them and tried to use them but they didn't work at all.

Numbered Steps to Reproduce Problem:
1. Tried to reset macros
2. Tried to use them (didn't work they got deleted somehow)
3. Repeatedly did steps 1 and 2 but never worked.

Expected Results:
For my macros to work.

Actual Results:
Macros kept getting deleted after I reset them.

Does the problem occur:
Every time? Or how often? Every time I tried
In other games? Yes in other games as well that let me use Macros
In other user accounts? Yes all of the ones I used
On other computers? No I only have one computer to play BYOND on.

When does the problem NOT occur? If I use an earlier version of BYOND.

Did the problem NOT occur in any earlier versions? If so, what was the last version that worked? (Visit http://www.byond.com/download/build to download old versions for testing.)Version 511.1381 and 511.1382 were the last versions the problem didn't occur in.

Workarounds:
I'd say use versions prior to 511.1383 for now.

But if I went to remake them,they kept getting deleted after I hit the Ok button. Is that normal? If so how do I use macros?
