This does not accomplish a lot in most cases. Maybe in a lan you might see a small benefit copying lots of tiny files. Almost everything supports sliding window size so the tcp window size is not limiting transfer times. 

The people that think this speeds up ping or games are fools. Ping uses ICMP and games primarily transfer data by UDP. Since neither uses TCP these parameters have no effect.

it might help it might not

personally i see some slightly better experience with. Is it placebo???  i dont think so because indeed it clicks a little faster mobs for example. i dont have that half second lag that i have without it

someone can always try and then undo it.

L2 uses tcp, might help, best thing to use battleping though or something along the lines.
