General J July 11, 2004 Share General J Member July 11, 2004 Ghosting is just about the same as having no walls. Maybe even better sometimes... Good call Shaw! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwEEziL July 11, 2004 Share dwEEziL Member July 11, 2004 ok well, be that as it may, i only did it one time, and a fair warning would have been nice :| You have been in enough trouble before to know what the server rules are. The fact that Mmmm let you back should have been your fair warning IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General J July 11, 2004 Share General J Member July 11, 2004 I don't believe Mmmm would give someone caught using ogc a 2nd chance, and they do let a lot of people off easy. Ghosting is cheating, it is not allowed. It should be in server rules and if it isn't I would suggest that it needs to be in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGSHaW July 11, 2004 Share BIGSHaW Member July 11, 2004 How many ppl out there don't know that ghosting is cheating? really? isnt it just plain common sence? Its like putting this in the rules: "Don't forget to breathe, it delivers Ox to your brain" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PDO July 11, 2004 Share Guest PDO Guests July 11, 2004 Ventrilo makes things confusing when people are bad at describing, much easier to just use ingame.. . If you wanna do it just go to a random pub or download OGC, same deal and you don't get banned by people you know o_0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All Kill3r July 11, 2004 Share All Kill3r Member July 11, 2004 How do you determine if someone is ghosting though and wheres the limit ? A LOT of regulars use Vent/Teamspeak, even in our public server. I'm not bringing back a dead horse to beat but really, this guy was booted for ghosting and thats 100% the right thing to do. Ghosting is cheating, but i haven't seen the regs getting banned for it, some of them are just as obvious about it as Migrane Boy probably was. Others aren't so obvious about it, their the ones i worry about, they do it so often they are getting good at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All Kill3r July 11, 2004 Share All Kill3r Member July 11, 2004 I like ghosting AFK's ghosting is ghosting. It can't be that some ghosting is ok and some isn't. You obviously have the capability to ghost non-afker's if you ghost afk's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGSHaW July 12, 2004 Share BIGSHaW Member July 12, 2004 Well this is what happened in detail if u wish: Ryan is alive and camping, Migrane Boy is dead, all of the sudden Migrane Boy starts talking on voicecom to Ryan saying that there are ppl coming etc. ( I guess his ventrilo key is same bind as CS voice) Ryan obviously hears him as he acts on it...then when he dies Migrane goes on saying "Ryan u fool I told u they were coming and u still died" or something like that.... Thats when I decided to clear this thing out by asking if they're are on ventrillo or something...and they just came out and said "yes we are shaw " ...w/o futher delay I banned them both for cheating. As for regulars that might do this...well I never cought anyone but sure if I did there would be exactly same action taken w/o any hesitation...I recommend u make a DEMO if you anyone do it...because as we said IT IS CHEATING.

Lunk July 12, 2004 Share Lunk Member July 12, 2004 BTW, you two are not the first to be banned due to vent. About 2 weeks ago I banned a couple of leb| guys for the same thing. You got caught. Accept the consequences of your actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PDO July 12, 2004 Share Guest PDO Guests July 12, 2004 I like ghosting AFK's ghosting is ghosting. It can't be that some ghosting is ok and some isn't. You obviously have the capability to ghost non-afker's if you ghost afk's. 1) You took that out of context. 2) No, I don't. I know for a fact that over the past year I haven't done it once, and further more that I've yelled at people for ghosting for me. Ghosting AFK's is not ghosting, it's saving everyones time from watching 2 people sitting on the bomb while an AFK is sitting at T-spawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All Kill3r July 12, 2004 Share All Kill3r Member July 12, 2004 heh, calm down i never said you have ghosted people, just that you have the capablity if you ghost afk's. Ghosting AFK's is not ghosting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
