You use things everyday that you don't know how they work. This is a ridiculous statement. There is a difference between knowing how to work something and knowing how something works...

I used macroquest a few times on live towards the end when I really just didn't care (mostly mayong server, since let's be honestly, that server was a joke)... I have no idea how the program works, and honestly probably only know how to use it to 1/10th of it's capacity.. but that doesn't mean it didn't make my life way easier and enable me to do things that I wouldn't have been able to do as efficiently without it.

As far as all the people hating on this guy, simmer down. The guy should be commended for going through the trouble of educating himself so as to follow the rules of P99. I bet 1/2 of the people on P99 have either used, or knowingly benefited from someone using MQ... hell there are people in this thread that fit that bill. Personally, I've got no problem with MQ as long as it's not being used on P99, and props to you Danny for taking the effort to make sure you're following the rules.

My advice would be to just ensure MQ isn't running prior to launching EQ. I'm pretty sure MQ would need to be actively running for it to be detected; although you might wanna wait for Rogean to reply as he'd surely have the definitive answer.

True the fuck out of that!! You (hopefully) use soap every day, but do any of you know the first thing about bubble science? It's a hugely complex discipline, which requires a solid understanding of physics, chemistry, and mathematics to even begin to comprehend the basics.

One of my favorite sayings, from some comedian (paraphrased):

I'll drop you off alone in the jungle with a knife, and see how long it takes you to send me an email.
