I Was A Very Very Bad Boy... (cloak Bug)

<div class="IPBDescription">but holy shamole was it ever fun!</div> OK, had a good match going, except our gorge decided to make sensory chambers early on. Ugh. It was fun surpring marines for a while as skulk, but they were slowly pushing us back. We got a second hive up (got carapace) and things were going along well. As the third hive was going up, some sneaky marines set up siege on the second hive. damn damn damn
By this time I was a fade and had cloaking, some other people took out the sieges, but not before the siege took out all three of our sensory chambers and the hive (I was off defending our old hive which was also under attack). Long story short, I was cloaked when the sensory chambers and hive went poof. When I started moving, the cloak didn't drop, it stayed permanently.
At first I was ready to kill myself, but like I said, I was a bad bad boy. I couldn't resist. The dark side was simply too strong a pull for me, and I slashed a few marines in the dark. I'm sure they thought I was just circle strafing behind them so that they never saw me, as none of them complained.
Suddenly, I see I have 70 resources... Should I? I know it would be mean to be a permacloaked Ohno, I know I shouldn't, it would be very very bad of me. Yet, before I knew it I right clicked, watched my cursor float to the top of the screen, and before long I was a big cloaked cow.
Now, it was just tooooo much fun. I'd let marines run past me, then I'd paralyze them in the back. As they'd stop in their tracks, I could see the sweat dripping off them as they realised they'd soon be dead. But I toyed with them, letting paralyze wear off.
Maybe they just stumbled they thought? Maybe they got stuck on something? Then I'd paralyze them again, and the fear would grow in them. After a while, I'd approach and give 'em a little nibble... let 'em know I'm there.
My team had more or less already won (we got our third hive and everyone else was an Ohno anyways), but still, I did something I shouldn't have. Do I feel sorry? A little... but do I regret it, probably not <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
Anyways, it would be a good idea to fix it, I'm sure I made the marines sad (even though they felt the need to fight us 7 on 4-5 for most of the game).

And it MUST be a bug. Do you really think Permacloacked Fades/ Ohno's are fair to the marines? I'm talking permanent, when you move, you are still cloaked. You are completely invisible until you die.

as a terran commander, i sensor sweep like no ones bidness. not a problem for me <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
Cloaking is supposed to stop when you move. So yes, it IS a bug.
Also, 7v5 is NOT uneven teams in NS. (some ppl might argue but this is what I believe.)
The only problem with that is, perma-cloak is not affected by scanner sweep, heh.

Rephrase or edit typo? plz?
I'ts unfair for a gorge because structures and webs appear out of the air? But it's fair for alien team?
The correct meaning: Although perma-cloak appears enjoyable I believe it is unfair to do this. Example of this happening: You evolve into a gorge and marines can suddenly see skulks spawning and weapons appears out of nothingness.
That clear it up?

EDIT: Amazing, I even double-posted. Not good luck on the forums t'night.
lol, i love to get to unreachable places and become a gorge... then drop offence chambers out of thin air and the marines would be freaked out <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
well of course it wouldn't kill them but it was fun <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
but for web, man, i couldn't tell you how many times i've owned a single Heavy Armor guy with just a gorge, singlehandedly, 1 on 1 <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> webbing is like the best thing there is...
Actually the name Terran existed before StarCraft. We really ARE terrans... Earth in latin= Terra

I have already contacted the moderators with the request to have this thread removed for this reason.
Kudos to those who reported the bug and did not keep it to themselves for their own advantage.
