Anyone? Options

Today after the server went down, when my miss is loading it stops at the number 20... Anybody know why and how to fix it. Also i'd like for yall to have patience on GanGstA_Viejev0X case. Please. Stop asking him for missionary. You know hes having problems. Hes on it. He'll run it ASAP. I see people like your.yeast.infection, Rush, Whacker, Skiba, etc. Playing with no missionary and the regs only ask us for miss. Why is that? I thought we were cool. I hope you now we hate hackers as much as you do. Thanks.

It amazes me to see these same posts all over the place, questions routinely answered yet ignored. I have been playing this game since it was in late beta, with Druid's help, I have been able to catch cheaters with some regularity.

Just because somebody kills you with regularity does not mean they are a hack. There are so many variables involved including ping, machine speed, network latency, video card, forced models, etc. that it is just not practical to think you are going to always come out on top of every battle.

The key signs of a hack are always pre-fire but this is not absolute. If you think a guy is pre-firing on you, spec him against other players. If he has a better ping/connection than you, he is probably seeing you a split second before you see him. While spec'ing the player, check to see if he is firing into a lot of barriers, as if he can not tell they are there. Last night I banned a player called 'brownie' from MOB4. He routinely popped out of closets on Stalingrad and fired at people, firing rounds into walls beforehand.

Another way to catch a hack is to camp for a minute or two. Yeah it makes you look like a fool but it is an easy test. If you are camped in a closet waiting for a guy and he rounds the corner firing at you it is possible he is a hack. Again, this is not absolute.

Far too often I seen campers cry foul when good players kill them but let's be realistic. Campers are not good at this game and they never will be. If they had any talent, they would move along with the flow of the map. The game has been out long enough that there are no hiding places that I don't know about and I find it funny that campers think they are smarter than the best players in the game when they themselves can't figure out what the 'w' key does.

Whacker was on MOB4 last night and I thought he was a hack along with a few of you. I spec'd him for a long time and IMO he is just a good player. When faced with a lot of opposing players that were campers, his scores went down considerably. He didn't pre-fire, didn't see anything that I couldn't see, and didn't pop out from behind walls just as someone appeared.

As for Your.Yeast.Infection, personally I think he is a hack but I can't tell for sure. I need another MOB guy to confirm it to ban the guy because we don't want the good players to leave our server.

Skiba of course is not a hack. Everybody within MOB will tell you that. If you doubt the integrity of a MOB guy, then this isn't the server for you and you should probably find somewhere else to play. The money, effort, and time that these guys expel to allow you to play on a cheat free server demands a certain amount of respect and if you can't accept that, then again, this probably isn't the server for you.

Skiba of course is not a hack.

He's not a hack, but he's ugly, and his mom dresses him funny.
