It's not so bad...as has been repeatedly noted, once BF3 and MW and suchlike are out the arcade paddle-bashers will move on and leave RO2 to the mature demographic.
I think you just saw one unique case of shady gameplay by a certain group, and turned it into a giant crusade.
OP you sound like me 10 years ago when I discovered players in UT99 were using single buttons to swap weapons (piped binds) and do 180 degree turns.
Or using macros to lower their mouse sensitivity when using certain weapons.
These sorts of things are facts of gaming, but I don't think they are quite as rampant as you believe. I dislike them just as much as you do, but I believe RO2 is the last place you should have to worry.
I would be very, very surprised if there were an actual macro set up by anyone so they can move a certain way in order to get in close with a bayonet. Why would you bother? You could just as easily set the game up to automatically zoom to a certain degree (or even change it on the fly) with certain weapons.

I wonder whats shady about trying not to die when facing an enemy when you just have fired your last shot? You guys really stand still to be shot or run a straight line?
We can deal with them though, and they soon get bored and move on anyway.

This thread has dispelled a lot of that ignorance though, hasn't it poppets. Hence all the rage.
Dont worry, we wont be going nowhere. Been playing RO since the mod and this is the best game for zig zagging, so we're sticking with it.
LOL the only rage I've seen in this thread is that coming from you, it's what has us all laughing and coming back for more.
So, basically you are whining around here, because, unlike the "real soldier" you are trying to be, you failed at nailing a target with your (let me guess: MKB) SMG from 2meters? Seems more like your aiming is flawed than a problem with the game.
Keep digging.
G41 actually. And I did hit him, hit-detection fail. Again.
