I've been playing for about 6 years or so (can't remember exactly how long but probably almost as long as the demo's existed) and I don't usually complain about other players unless they cheat. But now I have to say that I've had enough. I'm a good player. Compared to some on demo I'm a Godess This is great. Being able to kick ass is usually a good thing. But lately I've seen a downside to this. You get called a cheater alot. Now I can deal with being called a cheater. I take it as if I'm damn good. But unfortunately many players goes one step further and tries to screw with you while playing. They block you and tk you (well, teamwound you enough so that you easily get killed by opponents, which is just as bad). What can be done about this? There's almost never an admin online to kick them and kicking them doesn't help. If enough people vote to kick them (which doesn't happen very often) then they just come back since being kicked doesn't mean being banned. I actually get kicked more than the players teamkilling me. Is that fair? This has been going on for a long time but lately it's been more than usual and at times I don't even play because I'm tired of being tkd because someone thinks I'm a cheater. Some old players have done this too (though not that much tk) but they usually stop it if I talk to them. So what can be done about this? I'm sure there must be someone here who have experienced the same thing. What did you do about it? Or is this something I just have to live with? Yours, Josephine - Crying in a corner

It's nothing, they are just jealous that you are better than them. You get used to it. When I played demo for a while I had the same problem. I just disabled the chatlines ( /cg_teamchatheight 0 ) Some player we're still anoying by blocking and teamwounding. I just walked around them. You should try it to, it's works really I remember a week ago when I accused a player of cheating because got killed too much.. but I didn't know it was herme. (check his signature) Some players are accusing other players by anger, because they get killed too much (like me )

the fact is- there is bounch of players out there that u/we don't know them and are pure "ownage". I know it can be frustrating when some1 comes from etc. 1.4 and starts to own u, u imidetly think he cheats cuz u didn't see him before But calling ppl cheaters is inmature and anoying. If u have proove that some1 cheats just post it, no need to argue with them. And Josephine- there will always be ppl that will behave like f@ktards- for some there is no help since this is in their nature When ppl will call u cheater take is as complinent- i know i always do And when it comes to tk and wounding team mates, just post their name so when admin is around he/she can keep an eye on them to see what actualy is going on. U can make a demo of it also, or if tk and few ppl confirms and post about it, Richard can recheck the logs for tk and then decide what he will do. That is pretty much all that can be done in this matter- i know it sucks when u have to stand that kinda players in game but note- ppl like that never change so sooner or later they will ran into admin or some1 that can do something about it and go back to playing tetris or whatever they did before they decide to mess with other ppls fun

I've experienced the same as Josephine.. (It is a long time ago though, as I don't pwn anymore ) While playing, its hard to avoid their teamwounding. But there are some things you can do to protect yourself. I do this when it happens: *Change spawnpoint, so that you dont spawn close tho them. *Become a med, cus then you can heal yourself. *Also, sprint jumping away, as most noobs don't know how to do this properly. *Never shoot back. Voting them off is the best solution...

I agree with MrPingu... Since it is almost always some noobs that start wounding u, calling u a cheater etc. it is quite easy to fool them with just running away from them... and if u have some1 stubborn after u keep moving so he won´t be able to get u as easily. since the noobs don´t know how to move on the map either they will lose u after a while! So just ignore the FUKTARDS

Thanks for all the suggestions. Yes, I can just run away but I like sitting around (you know, "camping" ). Anyway. I haven't been tkd much since I wrote this so maybe those ba*tards who do it have given up

Here's another suggestion Jos: Play retail. The retail servers got less idiots and a higher frequency of skilled playes who would be a more suitable challenge for you. Or is it that you just wanna dominate against a bunch of garbage? In that case you might have to take the bad with the good. I guess though, that you would spank assess on retail as well so I can't see why you refuse to do so.

i think people doesn't deserve to be called garbage just because they have been playing the game less than others. You have no right to call them like that, if you are good or not (which btw we don't really know )

Btw, I'm probably garbage compared to you, not as a person but when it comes to playing this game. Cheers. //mathop

It's not that I refuse to play retail, it's just that I can't get the bloody thing to work A long time ago I tried retail but then my cfg from demo didn't work on retail. So basicaly I had to use the basic cfg and that made me play like a complete noob. A few weeks ago I tried it again but this time I can't install the game because my CD-Rom won't take the game-CD. So I don't know what to do

LoL, u are like me - unlucky on all fields Download the game and if u need help with cfg upload it and pm me the link or send it to my mail and i'll "convert" u to retail one ;D P.S. My reciepe for when my dvd/cd rom betrays me is- nice and gently take him out from pc, once out clean the dust on it and then take it outdoor since it probably needs some fresh air and then, TAKE THE DA*N HAMMER AND SMASH IT (it works for me)
