it is sad is it not.

i've been playing for 5-6yrs now, it wounds me to see it degrade so. yet such is the morality of men. we have become and Godless and Amoral world have we not?

lol, Baron you should change your name to Shakespear...lol

sid6.7: the release of 1.10 is in the midst.....you won't have to put up with it much longer, and if you played on any of the CTF servers (ducati style) these problems don't happen very often :)

Secretplace is one of the best servers to play on though you do have alot of people playing there and 10 shots is a little much. Ducati is also a really good server. Other than those two I just have to bounce around to different servers to get away from cheats and players that have *problems*.

the people who claim everyone is cheating are absolutely hilarious. they make up the most fun new variant of bzflag: see how fast you can get someone to accuse you of cheating without actually cheating.

getting to the point that I wish there was a master silence or silence all command...with the option of siliencing everyone except those few have earned my respect.

It is bad enough with just the lag, then to have to put up with everyone screaming "Wolf, Wolf"...

when in reality they don't have a clue....

Most of the time I try to help out the moral of all players - even if I can get one or two "lol's" out of other players - anything to help the atmosphere on the battle field.

i don't think game has sunken to an all time low, nor is the world one of hopelessness baron. :) the world is only relevant to perspective eh?

anyhow,
the servers out there are like channels, if you don't like it, then CHANGE SERVERS.

last night i played for a bit a cruised a couple server i have never been on, freedomlives.net and some other one in munich germany i think. on the german server there was a person cussing and saying things that are best not repeated. so i left.

then i went to freedomlives.net and there was a cheater, pausing, flying, the usual cheat crap. once i started scoring many points, this cheater starts grabbing weapons and chasing me around and simply not a very good player because he couldn't catch me. it was pretty lame, so i left.

why people play on these servers is beyond me, but there are so many more to choose from. don't let it get you. try irc.freenode.net -> #bzflag maybe someone can help you when you spot a cheater/abusive player.

One of the stupidest things about many of the cheaters I have seen lately is that a fairly advanced bz player with a normal client can still beat them. I really wish people would stop trying to improve their client and start trying to improve their gameplay. I totally agree with sm, if there is cheating/abusive language on the server you are playing on...change servers.

Saw a cheater the other day that was bragging that he was religious. Hmm, I wonder if cheating and bragging are sacraments of his religion.

LOL......Im thinking
Dear religious guy (cheater) if somebody destroy your computer for a religious reasons ,what,which is your reaction?????
Dont play with the religion but play like a real man without cheat code....and use your skill for help people not for to be a Superman.

When i told him to stop or i would kick him, he replied "for your information i am blind" lol, what an idiot. Anyway, i was talking to DeadMeat about it and he said that same guy was on doing the same thing w/ the blind excuse...i will have to admit, he was an ass, but a funny ass at that...lol
