After 26 polls, it's hard to come up with a new one. :P Send me some ideas!



This weeks poll we are asking, "Do you, or have you ever used a cheat/hack in an online game?" Should be interesting to see the results.

Also, if you chose any of the first four options, please let me know what games you play so I don't play on your server! :P

Cheats/hacks reveal the player's true skill. They suck, therefore they need to cheat.

I dont cheat. I would perfer a online game to be a test of gaming skill rather than googleing skill. But when I run into cheaters I look at it this way.

If they beat me. Wow there not good enough to accually play me so they let their computer beat me for them.
If I beat them. Wow. They suck so bad they cant even beat me with cheats.

I dont lose either way.
My sig went AWOL

Then it came back.

So I deleted it again.

Technically my no never answer was a lie, but the hacks we used in MOHAA were wall hacks we used as admins in spectate mode to chatch ppl hacking. As hacks eveolved for that game and many other it get harder to have anti cheat programs be worth a dang and the ones that are 100% restric any modding and since we used custom avatars/skins/loading bars/weapon skins/sounds it was near impossible to get ppl using them.

So yes i have used them to catch hackers, but as fro my personal in game use NO.

never cheated in online play & never will. Nothing is more annoying in CS when some guy goes zooming off and kills the entire enemy team before you are even finished buying your equipment
