What do you mean? VB.net is a GUI language, but something like perl isn't. The only thing it does for you is create it's own controls from the library to save time. Any other bad habits you have from programming in VB.net should be blamed on yourself. Just like in any other language. You still are required to create their functions otherwise they don't do anything, whether you copy and paste it or think of it up on your own. Intellisense will also help you remember and get you into the habit of proper syntax which is why I'd recommend it for beginner coders.
If you suggest that Intellisense is basically automating a copy and paste method, then it can be turned off if you're familiar with syntax, but i'd suggest beginners using it anyway to get in the habit of proper syntax to start.
