During my Enemy Territory time since 2004 I can surely claim that I nearly tested like...400 different configs? But why did I actually do that?
I guess, I've always been interested in how the best players played and back in time I thought, that using a "pro" config can influence your gameplay and aim in a positive way.
Most of the time people actually flamed me using arguments such as "a config of a good player doesnt make you a good player automatically!" or "even if you use
mystics config, you wont be aiming as he did back in 2006!"

And then, i tried cfg from good player as lettu, mAus, butchji mainly, was like 'omg its easier''
And finally i tried again my cfg homemade and felt like: god, cfg are so useless, if u are good, u will be good with any cfg, sensi, and every others settings :-D
some ppl dont even change a settings for years, while others need to change cfg every weeks when they have a 'bad day' :P
once u desactivated basic settings ( as cg_bobroll, draw explosion, foliage etc ) others cvars are for ur own taste, so its useless to play with "X" players cfg to aim better etc
2)Use the time needed to tweak it
3)Profit
4)????
ALL WRONG MAN
btw, using ur config since few months, won't change it, but I use regular dot as crosshair
shared this awesome story now bro
If you have a favorite player and want to play like them, using there config gives you a good psychological boost saying 'this is what they use!'. Yet again its a lot of placebo effects and when that placebo disappears people seek new configs and adjustments, then it starts all over again.
you = no oldschool hehehehe
most downloaded config ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PFF
>_>
<_<
I feel your config whoring pain. That said, I agree with you, it's mostly a placebo effect.

Learn the game, not the engine.
Well anyway I guess you are right.
:DD
For example tweaking your r_stencilbits and muzzleflash settings makes it possible to see shooting and dynamite through walls from a distance... There are more useful cvars out there but I got bored pretty fast with switching parameters.
