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.
(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...
