Theres nothing wrong with VB, it can do the job fine in most cases.
Don't let anyone tell you how to program, do it in what feels comfortable and right, there are plenty of tools/languages out there, use the one you feel will do the job...
Usually people that bitch and moan about one language or another do so for one of a few reasons.. 1) Its the only one they know 2) Their friends told them it sucked, so you should use something use 3) They dont want to have to try to support it...
Plenty of tools have been written for eqemu using VB, don't let anyone deter you if thats the language you feel like writing it in. Personally, trying to do something in C++ that could easily handled in VB is a waste of time and effort in my honest opinion. VB is an excellent, rapid prototyping and development language, its abstracts the things away from you that you really shouldnt worry about (ie the windowing componets and event listeners)
