Quake / Re: invite! spam

Demonstrates Exceptional Knowlege of the Game

It's 2025, and some people STILL do this. 

I don't play anymore, but for the sake of others, I'm gonna do something crazy that probably won't work, but you never know until you try: I'm going to simply ask nicely and hope they're excellent enough to listen. And so I humbly ask this person to please cease with the chat spam and just play the game and enjoy the miraculous fact that this many people still bother coming to these servers to play this very very ancient game.

Bot Drop / Re: Lets kick things off

DEMO OR STFU

Yes a demo is considerably more useful.  This is much better than a 'wallhacks' said on server, but a 12 second clip isn't remotely conclusive of anything.

If there's a demo of someone shooting when rounding corners, only when someone is there, and not shooting when it's clear.. sure that could be suspicious.  Someone rounding a corner shooting once and then not shooting when rounding the next corner when the opponent is actually there is far from suspicious on its own tho.

Quake / Re: Hackusations on dm server

Appears Not to Comprehend Game Fundamentals

Oh where to start.

First admin unbans KNOWN 100% proof positive cheaters like .skyline then has the audacity to set up that stupid DM auto message.

If known cheaters are going to be unbanned and not even forced anticheat, They deserve the criticisms they are going to receive don't you think?

Now that being said most of the time it's just muck around nonsense, however there are many suspected players mainly coming from europe who no doubt use euro hack paks. All you need to do is look at Davids youtube videos to see what's out there

Item timers, damage count downs, weapon timers, ammo timers, loud water sounds, loud elevator sounds the list goes on, And these are only modifications he shows in his videos. What else has he got that he isn't showing? Some of the things he uses i have actually never seen before or knew existed

If somoene is going to go to such lengths to gain an advantage and hell yes all those things are an advantage, then there is no doubt they are willing to go further. And if there is any doubt euro cheat this was on a euro server not long ago....


(rul): i need to send you my model's folder
(myrmidon^): that would be nice, thx
rul): you will just put it in q2 directory
>purri: did u get kicked out from US?
>david: yes
>david: too much timers and too good at quake

I don't know of any US server that kicks for item timers. David was kicked multiple times for an unknown items in his quake folder.


These people deserve the scrutiny they get

The intention of the message is to address the constant cheat accusations against people who aren't actually cheating. It was getting to the point that anyone who gets a frag gets called a cheater by certain individuals. We have seen numerous times where admins and good players were getting accused of cheats every time they join the server and those certain individuals were on.

Trash talk all you want in the server, that's expected. The cheat accusations that go on for days against people who don't cheat is what this is about.
