Let me go on a little rant here for a moment, by all means I welcome comments and feedback as I see more and more of this every day - and I think it would be healthy to get an idea on how the community stand on this issue.
Here we go.
There are different and varying levels of "cheating" which we are all well aware of. My point is, if you see someone warping around why on earth would you report them? You cheat yourself being on this site is evidence enough of that fact.
Myself, for more years than I can recall, I've been a vanilla user. I automated a few toons when I logged in and started some of my own Macro customization to suit my play style and needs. As time went on and as time became less and less available for me to keep up with updating plug-ins/ offsets and the like I saw the value of joining a site such as this to provide it for me.
Enter MMO - Wrapped in a nice little package, support were needed and nowhere near as predatory as some other places when you throw you hands in the air and yell for help.
What I can't for the life of me figure out, is the witch hunt going on in game and out with people screaming Burn Him! Anytime they see someone warp, use /hailtarget or so much as give off the smell of being an MQ user.
The fucked up part is this is being done by other people that *use* MQ themselves (yes I've seen you, and you know who you are).
I agree there is a smart, and not so smart way to make use of these very handy little tools, and to do it openly in front of the general masses is just begging to get your account suspended or worse. The jist of my ranting is this should not be instigated by another MQ user.
What's disturbing, is it used to be us (MQ community as a whole) vs. them- So, why do other MQ users report on other MQ users. Honestly, give your fucking head a shake fella' -- Or am I being too right wing here to expect a certain level of maturity and respect between the fellow MQ'er.
If I saw someone warping around, chain zoning, or using /gate why would I report someone for this, I'm also a user. Maybe the most difficult to comprehend problems are the ones that defy common sense.
What kind of prat actually goes out of their way to report people for doing the very thing they are doing themselves, with the same tools as they are using as the detection device.
Keep in mind, the more of this that goes on, the more likely you are going to see more MQ users reporting each other (as many on my server already do) to avert attention, or focus from their guild or themselves (who also use MQ)to someone else who hasn't done them a shred of harm or even spoken to them in game or out before.
It's almost to the point now that I'm getting quotes on my chars as if I can't 6box in peace I won't play, might as well sell them off and get another 2nd hand car to fix up in my free time - what little is left.
