This has nothing to do with MQ, any old joe with an account can do this. Blame SOE for putting a bug like this in game, not your favorite scapegoat.

There is a bug in at least the eqgame.exe (which is the Everquest Client Executable on your computer) and the Everquest Servers (in California) from last Friday, if not before, that allows anybody to create a level 1 character with the same name as any other character. If the higher level character has a corpse anywhere the level 1 character can loot it. This is yet another prime example of the complete lack of QA from SOE (which also includes the recent Shammie defensive proc spell, did you blame MQ for that?).
This has nothing to do with Macroquest in any way, shape or form. Please refrain from posting wild accusations when you know nothing of the facts.
Thanks

Here's my piece:
While using MQ isn't exactly ethical, it is mainly used to alleviate repetative and annoying things in this game. The development team in no way endorses active hacks like warp, no aggro, no summon, infinite range through-walls archery, etc.
I have a hotkey which is 5 lines of /pause 20, /cast 8 to cannibalize, which lets me run and get a soda or something during downtime. What would be the evil in a macro to canni/sit/hot yourself so you can med while afk like everyone else? Or something which pulls out an item, clicks it, and bags it again. Bandolier anyone? Potion belt? Three buttons instead of one.
Most of the people who use MQ are folks who in no way are detrimental to anyone's gameplay, and not providing themselves any significant advantage over the average joe, save a little less insanity inducing repetition. That's why people get pissed when MQ gets dragged through the mud by the exploit du jour.
I'm not saying MQ users are saints, but lumping them into the "evil hackers out to steal your intarwebz" pile is retarded.

Funnily enough I remember people using the "anything that saves clicks is bad" and "anything that makes the game easier is bad" arguments against spoiler websites, turbo mousepads, in-game maps, target cycling and dozens of other things.
In my opinion, anything that does not alter what characters are capable of is fine to use and should probably an in-game feature. Imagine if there was no autoattack feature. You would still have the odd lunatic who clicks fast enough to attack just as fast as before. All that getting rid of such features achieves is widening the rift between those are willing to ruin their hands and those who are not.
