That said... ELTank didn't "level" anything. It gave macros to the public and to those who didn't deserve it (not that anyone did).
I was never a fan of macros, but the macros that DID exist were written by developers whom mostly did it to see if they could, and didn't even care about using them. At least it was contained and private. Elgar made it public and made it an issue.

On my prefered server all the XP dungeons for every level had been macro whored. Live players were stuck out of doors with often dubious XP.
I understand your sentiment about 'who deserves what' but in a game where we all were paying the same fee one group did not deserve the most oppertunity for advancemebt because they had private programs running. The private macros detected the targets before a live user got the info on their comp and had them half dead at that time.
