Well, some people don't consider killing millions of Bol/Pickets as actually playing the game either. It is a tedious and redundant task that people try to automate because it is repetitious and boring. You do not learn to play the game or your profession any better by spinning all day to make Force XP. That is why people want to AFK macro things to get XP.
That being said I don't support AFK macros at all. I like the game too much so I personally don't do it. I played Asheron's Call since it was released and AFK Combat macro'd many accounts on many servers. That was the downfall of the game so I chose not to do it here. Well, that and being permabanned. That being said, I think SOE has done a good job with the random mobs, spawn times, and missions spawns that you can't really just AFK macro like you could in other games. I know it can be done, but not very easy.
Maybe instead of finding an AFK macro, use other macros to make your grinding a little easier. I havea macro that will target a groupmate, and attack what he is attacking. That way I don't have to target and attack anything. I just start it and sit back. When the lair is done I /dump it and jump on my swoop and head to the next mission. It takes a little of the repetition out of it and allows me to do other things like chat with guild mates. Anyway, just a suggestion.

No one is forced to grind Bols all the time, you still get xp fighting other creatures and NPC's, granted it's not as fast. But whynot enjoy the game? See some content, try fighting some Black Suns. Do something other than sit in a Spin group at the MOP.
That's the problem with todays world, everyone wants everything this very second, they can not fathom the thoughtof having to wait.
I agree with you 100%. That is the reason I am not done with this grind. Too many other things to do. However, there are a lot of people out there that would rather grind Jedi right now than go find other things to do. Just the nature of people.
I'm right there with ya man. I have all 6 quests unlocked. Sure I do spin groups at the MOP, but I do not do that only. I mix it up, when I get bored I look for something else to hunt. And thats why I still have 3 million fsxp needed. But I'm in no rush. When I unlock it, I unlcok it.
For instance last night someone needed help with fighting mellachie, so I tagged along in his group helped him unlock his Jedi. It was different, gave me insight as to what to expect when it was my time to unlock it, and I got XP and some great loot drops.
