My understanding of a powergamer is that of one who loves having the biggest weapons and armor and stats, even to the point of hacking his character up so that he is god-like...which makes running through the game incredibly easy, as the monsters don't stand a chance.

The exact opposite is a person who decides he will try to play the enitre game solo, using only leather armor and a stick. Get the idea??

It is not bad to be one, if you enjoy the feeling of nonstopable power. It is bad, if you spent all that money for a game, and not even attempt to live up to its challenges in a real world way. Why then, did you spend all that money, just rush through the game and not worry abou getting hurt or killed.

It all depends on you level of challenge that you are looking for. Again I say...this is my understanding.
