'Munchkin' is a derogatory term a lot of AD&D; players used to employ, describing typically a younger player, who wants the best of everything. A chaotic good paladin/magic user half elf (half dwarf) at level 18, with a +20 sword of Slay Anything I Damn Well Like.
They don't realise that this ultimately makes the game pointless and dull. In the multiplayer context of AD&D;, it also frustrates all the proper players who like to earn their rewards properly and exercise their brain a little. Finally of course, a character's power doesn't really have anything to do with enjoyment of roleplaying; playing a role... not necessarily that of a demigod.
So in EV:O, a munchkin plug would be one that gives you something that makes life too easy, such as giving you extra money, solving puzzles for you, speeding up your jump time, making the player's ship better or the AIs worse... or whatever. You know the kind of plugs I'm talking about.
