Right now we have a system that is basically the same thing as jav-spam ( coh ducking) however its impossible to autofire your COH duck so now that PEOPLE ACTUALLY HAVE TO PRESS THEIR BUTTONS...the complaints are

OMGZ GUYZ PLS STOP!!!!! THINK OF THE CHILDREN THIS IS INHUMANE


just hypocritical all around, but I agree with Lazie that mages create an unfair barrier of entry for any guild that wants to dip into the FFA pool.

and while Sirken does mention binding in the post I linked, surely when he said 'mages are ok' that he understood COHing would be a part of that....
Any macro keyboard can automate a coth duck. Still need to be at the computer for the most part, but you needed to for jav spamming as well. Macro that will cast, wait 9 seconds, duck, cancel cast, repeat. Simply disable it (toggle switches work on the razer keyboards / G series) when the mob spawns. I guarantee more than a few are doing this exact thing. It does however eliminate ping based advantages so that's something.
