most hackers have personal problems in there real life, like they get beat up etc, so they take it out in a game. i just ignore them, as whingin and slagging them is just paying them attention, and they love it.
Did this thread ignore him?
Anyone know how to add IPbans to a ban.cfg or w/e file it uses?
Cause I never got this working. Even with admin_ipban or console. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

Dont you need another CD key though for a new steam id?
NO NO NO! IP bans are a BAD idea, unless the person is coming from someplace where the IP won't change.. most users have dynamic IP's, meaning that they reconnect and get a new IP.. which means you banned someone who does nothing. Go by a steamid ban, thats almost impossible to change (short of buying a new copy of hl)

Yes u do. It was only in the beginning you could have multiple email accounts with 1 cd key. Now its 1 cd key = 1 email account. Plus they have deactivated all the accounts signed up when you could have multiple accounts for 1 cd key
He hung around on some non-steam servers and would fill it with racist remarks CC spamming and other yummy traits of an idiot.
The guy cheating on our server was using a script, it attacked using gore three times before resting for energy, it probably could of done more if there was enough energy. That let him kill someone with gore with what looked like one hit, but was actually 3, remember that one gore cannot under any circumstances kill a 3/3 marine with full health and armor.... <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
Yea if you see anyone going around with the name "|Px|Sonic2000" snag his steamid and post it up here, he is no longer part of the Px clan and might/might not still be wearing the tag
Steam-ID = STEAM_0:1:1426273

I have a demo, but its too long to post here
A) Take it up with the server admins guys, the NS team aren't the server police.
B) Even if you HAVE to post it here, put it in the server forum, where the majority of players (who aren't ops) don't read, and the ops do.

Last night was the first time I'd seen cheating in NS. It was a bit depressing to get taken down as HA by a gorge with the healspray.
I just left the server, but I'm curious as to how common it is? I've seen speedhackers in vanilla half life and counterstrike, but I left those games to get away from the cheaters and found NS to be a very refreshing change. I'd hate to leave it because cheating became commonplace.
While NS can be a mix of good and bad teamplay it's been fairly cheat free for me for 6 months or so.
I've seen it in CS but it should be the same. Basically the player goes <i>extremely</i> fast in the direction of their choice. It's obvious, you would know it if you saw it.
I complained to the admin and found out that he and Yolt were buddy buddy so nothing came of it except me not ever playing on that server again.
I'll see if I can find my screenshots.
Speedhack; n: A cheating program performing one of the following actions:
Boosting a character's movement speed (ie. running or walking)
Boosting the rate of fire for an attack (as mentioned, knifing a hive in 15 seconds, 3 gores in the time of 1, emptying an HMG clip in 2 seconds, etc.)
Increasing the speed of certain actions, such as reloading.
Speedhacks are some of the most obvious out there - spotting them is no problem if you keep your eyes open.
I'm not sure. I am unfamiliar (read: have no friggin clue) about the HL engine. I have seen it happen though. I have stood next to a guy who emptied his HMG in about 3 seconds, reloaded in one second, never missed, and apparently is real chummy with the server admins. Go figure.
Oh, and his excuse is always "lag" when someone says he hacks, and he likes saying he's in CAL. Just random things I've picked up from seeing him on servers.
And STEAM_0:1:1426273 is his steamID.
