Sounds like a majority to me. And when 2.0 came out, the cries of "omg spores pwn!!" were way more numerous than "I miss lerk bitey".
Note to readers: Despite my misconception, this thread is <u>not</u> a discussion about whether Lerkbite is good/wanted by the community or not. My apologies.

I personally prefer Spores over Bite. Cos back in 1.0, early lerks were slaughtered easily.
kwikloader is right. You'll have alot more fun with the SuperLerk plugin. You can get alot of MetaMod plugins for NS <a href='http://www.modns.org' target='_blank'>here.</a> You'll need MetaMod to use them. <a href='http://www.metamod.org/' target='_blank'>MetaMod</a> is really complicated, so I really suggest that you get to know how to use it first.

the lerk has been n00bed. anyone can use it. in 1.0, it took skill. Dive biting was my favourite past time.
spores are nice, but they get very annoying and its not half as fun as a lerk melee
Since this has turned into a discussion anyway: Yes, a 1.x early Lerk was not just gunfodder. With carapace it was a minitank (and a hard one to hit at that), and the bite did a good job of killing marines. However, I think the reason why the bite was removed was because the Lerk was intended as a support role, and wasn't played like that. And that's what it is now, a harrasser/support unit.
