I play on a 32 inch screen. And everything is easy to see.
The server uses zeroing and this is a weak point for everyone. I'm very interested to see if this mod is removed
We all can only trust the admin. But these are not official servers.
MR snowguy if YOU can't prove it, then that's another matter.
Zeroping is access to cheaters. So we have this situation.
Regards...
And what does it say when you guys spectate sad but true? i did it a loth and i cant say i saw a cheat . Probably u guys see it better but i really didn't . Ingame playing against him isnt always a gift , is he that good or..... i dont know .. offcourse im not procheat who is ? He is certainly a very good aimer he shows that game after game . I ask myself why would you use a cheat if you are allready that good , he has nice mousecontrol so it would be very weird to use a cheat for those few extra frags .
Is he banned from the ukserver for that bouncing snowguy?
There is a lot that has been brought up here. I will try to cover it all but it will take some time so I will answer a little bit here and there as time permits.
Titan It seems your not active playing on your servers, else you would see, that his runs and shots are out of normal players.
Although I haven't been playing much recently, I can tell you that I have played with and against this player for years. In fact, my first 2 years back into UT I played practically every day on the same server as this player both in normal weapons and combogib. So, I do understand what it is like playing against him. I have also spent many many hours watching his play and have watched all videos and demos that people have sent me of him in slow motion at least once. I don't make my decisions based on how many emails I receive or how many players say someone is cheating.
Titan I have a big problem, that your server rules say "Play CTF", and there are a lot of players, doing nothing else than playing death match.
Rules like this are subjective, almost every player will have a different definition of what is CTF and what is not CTF. The rule "The objective is CTF, play it" is more an attempt to encourage/remind players that we are capturing flags here not just shooting each other. Trying to enforce this rule would be cumbersome and most likely push many people away to never return. I'm afraid it is the price that must be paid to have the server populated.
Titan To tell the truth, the server needs a decent Admin, to give players an active warning or just to show presence ("an admin is here").
I have chosen to take a different approach to this. The problem with showing that there is an admin around is that players will just behave only when the admin is there and not at other times. One could get a team of administrators so there would always be one around but this can lead to overzealous administration and once again push people away. I do however warn and ban players you just don't notice it. I used to have banned players announced when they tried to reconnect to show to others that bans do happen but eventually some banned player decided they would use this to reconnect with vulgar and/or disparaging names of other players so I turned off this broadcasting of bans.
No offense intended reg but I have received more complaints about you DM-ing than any other player. In fact, almost as many complaints about you than I have had about pitok.
reg i mean, a server where there is a decent anti cheat
Do you have a suggestion for another anti cheat that is needed on the server?
That's all for now, I'll try to respond to other comments and questions as soon as possible.
This post is not about sad_but_true only, it belongs to other players also.
What you say snowguy is, that you will do nothing, as long as there is no proof. With that attitude, your protecting one guy. But - I can talk for myself only - but what I see also, many other players won't play or leave the server, when he's on.
The list of players causing this situation is longer (sbt, henry, dasein, ....).
You should ask yourself, what is more important for you: the protection of one player (proofed guilty or not) or the fun for the community (for which the server is here, when I understand that right).
I think it would be a good signal, to active remove players from a running game. You can broadcast an admin message into the game, every player can read that.
...and reg.... i don't know that guy. But what i see, he's a very good defender. I never (!!!) saw him dm'ing. But his defense is good. Maybe annoying, but good. Every complain about that is .... ha ha ha.
sbt isnt really the only problem , maybe he is for some of you , but there are much worse players at least sbt is playing ctf in a normal way(cheat or not) , Players like oOo , wfh-deicide , uccello , lou sasolle , dasein ..etc arent even playing ctf anymore just camping , spawnkillin all game long. if you come in to sabotage the game of 17 other players you better get a timeout.
Yea reg hes defending all game long , game after game no grabs , is that allowed ? (thats sound very fucking selfish to me , isnt it) ? i had a few time a word to him about it , but that arrogance of not answering on the server is very easy offcourse . If thats allowed im gonna do the same and thats what you gonna create. All that behavior on the server gets from one person to another thats why the server is so poisened fuckeD up now. So what im gonna do now is full spawnkill games full defending games as it is allowed ? what i suggest is that some players get a little break to think lol , at least a week to start 
cammon lou sassole is quite epic player, don't punish him. He plays a special 4D chess.
There are different things you guys are talking here about playstyles and etc and that is a bit complicated to really manage, I mean, the game has a point set system that benefits camping, it has always been like that. I also do a lot of DMing although in many times i am just doing it because i want to stop the enemy spawncampers or dm'ers
I do think some anti-spawncamping should/could be in place such as: a) excessive spawn camp kills - 30s out of the server or b) spawn protection.
Regarding camping - why not a warning if a player doesn't move after 10s and a kick after 20s - this will force campers to relocate basically turning that stand combo playstyle into normal game style. You can set this minimum movement to be e.g. 100 to 200 unreal units idk, something relatively significant.
Regarding people playing CTF, more points should be given to people who attack. Maybe automatically being awarded 3 pts for entering enemy flag area would create a positive reinforcement for attacking the flag.
The problem in UT is that it always has rewarded fragging playstyles because flags kills = 7 pts (or something like that). So public server playing has always been the entire enemy team after the FC. Also, map designs are problematic as many (especially older) maps are chokepoint based so people can sit in one area and shoot at an entrance or simple spawns that can be pre-aimed.
Many people make a lot of their frags based on these and these are many issues that have always been a problem in public server playing.
zcbz i don't know whats epic about him , you guys supporting his bad behavior is much worse , my thought.
And like you say they even get rewarded for their behavior. Flagkills get rewarded verywell , im attacking a loth so i miss all those points but like i said if its allowed im gonna change my playstyle from now on , and it dont gonna get pretty.
ESUOH i don't know whats epic about him , you guys supporting his bad behavior is much worse , my thought.
And like you say they even get rewarded for their behavior. Flagkills get rewarded verywell , im attacking a loth so i miss all those points but like i said if its allowed im gonna change my playstyle from now on , and it dont gonna get pretty
I feel a bit like ESUOH. I have more + more the problem, to motivate myself to go on playing. So I went to spectate. Of course you get the kick backs like "Oh look, Player X is always running away when loosing". I try to be "over" this litte childs comments, but it doesn't work always :-(
My own experience about "camper mutators" and spawn protection is, that I don't like them. Even spawn protection can be very frustating, when you go for normal attacking, fire an opponent, and he won't die. And 1/2 later, you got killed by this player.
Titan i got the same , i go more and more in spectate mode or even offline , the motivation to get a good game isnt there anymore , or it is for a while but after a few minutes i think , damn same shit different game..
i can't talk about the protections because i never played on a server with it , but it will probably have its cons and pros.
About spammers and campers. Personally, I don't care about such things, because it's all part of the game ... (of course it's annoying) Tell me, have you ever been a noob before? 
(but there's a real person behind it, it's palpable) someone needs a week to learn, and someone a year is not enough. But when you use an extra program to help you aim...
Personally, I noticed two players who are i almost 100% sure that they are cheaters. SBT and a Canadian with nickname "Z"
Nicefu i don't know about that canadian guy with his 101 names , if i spec him he is very accurate and has nice mousecontrol , he stands still a loth and that gives you sometimes very easy shots, you could be right , but personally i don't see it Nicefu But he deserves at least a ban , for his playstyle , not grabbing backshooting etc
After watching your video @Nicefu, I really don't understand how people can still be like "oh no, he is clean for me just good !"
Well, after all, it's not my server, @snowguy do whatever he wants. I'll keep doing what I'm doing, meaning leaving the server when he is playing. That's all. Up to you to ban him or not. You're the master here
