Autoattack in EQ is nice, I suppose. Gives you time to think about aggro management and pathers and buffs and various other issues.

And, more importantly, communicating with your group. Voice chat was rare, as were high speed internet connections. You need those six seconds between kicks in order to type.
One of the wow-style mmo's I played, there was no time in between mashing hotkeys. The amount of time between pressing "1" and then pressing "2" was at most a second. And you had at least 12 different things to press in the right order. And you often needed to move around at the same time. The game was almost entirely silent. See a PC, click join, wordlessly kill 8 giant rats, disband, go turn in quest.
Even Vanguard was keeping my fingers busy enough that if my group wasn't in the same room as I was, I wouldn't be able to say anything at all.
