I will start this by saying that I don't condone cheating or glitching. But anyways, I was wading through all the vitriolic rants on the Kul boards and it got me thinking about glitches, unobvious cheats (not speeders or high jumpers or anything like that, but maybe any cheat that gives a slight advantage, but not enough to truly overcome bad play), and people who are just really skilled. I was kinda thinking along the lines of WHO CARES! I find it pathetic that someone might find the need to cheat on a regular basis, but at the same time I also look at it as a challenge. Because quite honestly, I can't tell when people are good or cheating. If (or I should say when) I get into the mentality of "this is unreal, they must be cheating!" then I end of getting frustrated with every little thing that goes wrong after that. I get angry and unreasonable and that affects no one but me! So I've gotten into the habit of just saying f*ck it and looking at the situation as a new challenge. You really have no control over if the other person is really just very skilled, or is cheating. Either way you are slightly outclassed, so take it as an oportunity to get better. And if you can't get past the fact that you are getting stomped on, then it's time to take a little break from game play, because it is still ONLY A GAME! Ari Who takes being accused of cheating as a compliment, because it means that I must be doing well

Ari, you've expressed something I've believed for a long time. Getting angry doesn't solve anything, and unless you can both prove the person's cheating and have server control, or know someone who does, even if they are, there's not much you can do about it short of finding a new server to play in. If a person is a glitcher, chances are they'll be caught - especially if it's someone in a clan. They grow too comfortable with it, and use it when they should be finding a nice spot from which to snipe. Eventually, it catches up to them. "Game gods" don't need to worry, as they never glitch or cheat in the first place. They can go into a server knowing that while they may be called cheats, they don't cheat. And you're right, it is a compliment.

Finding cheats or glitchers...shouldnt be a fulltime obsession...if its a suspected person and theres a remote actively playing there is only the need to notify the remote once.... anything more just interrupts the flow of the game and becomes a newsence. If there isnt a remote active, fnd another server...in the long run it will save you alot of greif.
As with Ari..I find it a challenge to personally dig up the glitchers and make their stay a living hell by constantly killing them heh....as mentioned they get comfortable with their glitches and in most cases return to the same spot like a dog begging for a free meal. It also allows you to learn to use your extra weapons and dodging skills. So when you are in a fair game most actions become second nature. I will though ask the person caught not to do it anymore as it will eventually annoy me lol.

lol...i remember one time in fun maps someone was on a .50 cal emplacement...i shot him in the head...he respawned there about 15 times in a row...i ended up with 16 headshots ;D
if someone is glitching, tell them what their doing, if they go back repeatedly, either get a SS or tell a remote
if someone is cheating, get a SS, tell a remote (either then or later), and dont say anything...saying "CHEATER" scares em off

Very well said Ari.. I too, get accused of cheating every now and then... I try not to label any cheaters unless I have definitive proof. Otherwise, like Shadow says, it upsets the flow of the game. The only thing more annoying than a cheater, is someone who constantly accuses people without any substance. I usually just leave the server and look for more mature players.
