Why do people script in pvp?

I will give the people that succesfully macro in this game in the lag......a cookie.

I'm not saying people don't use macros, but it's not nearly as many as you may think.

People have different machines and internet connections. ..nobody can shoot off 5 skills in 1 second. What you are experiencing is lag, and someone hitting you from a distance, so at the end you see your healthbar go from 100% to death recap screen. This can be done with and without the use of macros.

I have a v16 sorcerer, and when I play with her, I get higher dps if I don't use macros and weave manually, because of lag, latency and fps issues. The majority of the playerbase are like me and don't benefit much from using macros.
