Imagine this: you go fishing to a lake, you know there is a lot of fish inside including big ones, but for some reason you are ony able to catch few small fish, and most of the time you only pull old shoes, pieces of wood and other garbage out of the water.
But you really want people to call you a great fisherman, so what do you do? You simply rewrite your dictionary and change the definition of "fish" so that it includes old shoes and garbage, and suddenly, you can tell everybody that you catch a large quantity of "fish" everytime you go to the lake!
This is exactly what is happening with cheaters in et. You can make busts like the ones we are seeing recently, and call them "cheaters", but this doesn't change the fact thet you are unable to catch real fish. And you don't really gain anything by banning people like keran/perfo, just like you don't gain anything by eating old shoes, while the big fish remain free to swim in the lake regardless of what you have written in your dictionary.
:DDDDDDDDD:DD:::::::D

*Edit I totally agree with you... its a sad thing, but not changeable imo :/
The only way (cuz there is simply no alternative) to do SOMEthing about cheaters is with a zero-tolerance policy. Unfortunately for keran, shy and perfo, that means they will be or are going to be banned.
Same as the law. You may not agree it's not allowed to piss against a tree, but you will still get fined if you do.
Same way I think it's not right that I'm not allowed to take a piss against a tree, whereas a dog for instance is. But just cuz I dont think it's right, doesn't mean I will not get into trouble if I do it and get caught doing it.
Nowhere does it state that I think the rules are ok or if they suck or not. It's just irrelevant what you and I think since we don't make the rules but only need to live by them if we want to play in competitions.
We need some real cheatbusters who are able to find players who actualy cheat in CB matches, and not little brothers of EC players or players who test a public hack once.
We should open a cheater league to see which bot ownz more......
wtf is all that mess about? why are people still bitching about banning, not banning and all that shit????
ANY KIND OF CHEAT = BAN. NO MORE NO LESS. NOTHING TO DISCUSS.
you should've not made it into shoes, but into smaller fish. then it would be a fair comparison but then it would also make your post quite useless.
Too bad, they are not cheaters at all according to any decent definition of "cheater". They are big, but they are not fish, they are big pieces of garbage (:DDDDDD no offense), have fun eating them.
- small fish are guys who used it at one point in time
- big fish are guys using it in offi's
keran=small fish???
- Big fish = cheating in offi's between topclans (EC, Premier Etc.)
- Average fish = cheating in offi's of say div 2 or 3 and below.
- Small fish = people that used it at one point in time, offi or not.
- big fish are ppl who are constantly cheating / cheating in offis
- small fish = public cheaters
- garbage are the ppl who tried a cheat once to see what a cheat can do
and it doesn't matter how famous they are
- you've got a visual impairment
- from touching the object you can't judge whether it is a fish or just garbage
What's fish?
edit: I forgot to add: fish lie!
i agree with bans for anyone who used cheats anywhere online
if it was CB matches only, then cheaters would whine: oh i got kicked by pb during the warmup! that wasnt the match yet! i was just going to close the cheats once the countdown started! honestly!
a bunch of bs

how r u?
How are you?
and me, im fine, sun is shining. ;)
In 1 hour im of to a small lan-party/clanmeeting this weekend.
Cya @ CPC3 I suppose :)
ya idd we will see us cpc3. ;)
oO i remember the big big dog.
and whales are mammals ffs!!!!!!
As is "having used the same pc that was used by your younger cheater brother"
But if you mean "it's ok to cheat as long as you avoid being kicked by pb / leaving proofs", I disagree ;)
BUT IF YOU HAVE TO TEST CHEATS then do it at least on pb disabled servers. I think you can expect so much intelligence. Well, and you don't download cheats and put them to your et folder, if you don't want to cheat. And in case of you just named your et config to a cheat config name, then you can send it to pbbans and they will compare the md5 finger print.
(but maybe if you use cheats on a pub just for testing rather than for winning, it would no longer be "to gain an unfair advantage over opponents")
these 3 guys are no garbage... they may cheated only 1 time on public, but thats not interesting. they should have try the hax on an unprotected server or what ever...they have to know it better!! ... they are maybe small fishes... but they ARE fish!!
if u ask me, the biggest fault is, that ET is for free... if not, i don't think we would have such a huge cheating problem ---___---
That was supposed to be my point. They are doing it just to show the community that they are banning someone for "cheating"
thats their problem now if it was worth a ban for 6 months...
u will have ever cheaters... is it a point to stop punishing them?
GOOD FUCKING GAME.
This game fucking sucks.
(btw, kicked from #vaillant because I'm the biggest retard ET has born. pmme if you want a medskilled hated player in your clan)
oh and fishing is obviously for those who have nothing better to do than to sit by the lake waiting for a piece of garbage to turn up .. and once they got their piece of garbage they are more than sattisfied as they know that really there isnt all that much fish in the lake! ;P
