    Yeah I've had conversations with @Sharpe too. I won't go divulge what was discussed. The difference is I don't butt heads with him because of his skill. And you'd have a difficult time proving that he somehow wants or believes differently than I  or any of the other players up in arms over this post do. I will point out that he was interested in cod5 at one point and if you think for a second he wouldn't be dealing with the same issues as the player who was previously banned did, I want what you are on. 

    Since you responded to me Ill give my 1/2 cents worth.. First I really don't care what you have discussed and wont divulge.. And second I'm not going to worry about problems he might have over in another server ,That is his problem and he is a big boy and can take  care of himself..  Third, I can already tell from the fact that you are still here in this thread worrying about stuff that you  can not change or trying to persuade peoples opinions that have been in here since day one and also trying to tell one of the founders how to run his server which has been running very well for many years, is very entertaining... For me its simple, Giving educated opinions about something you understand is one thing. Giving opinions about something you are new too or servers you have not been in for very long is another.. Playing well and getting along with others is one thing.. Being a arrogant and other qualities is something else... Good luck trying to figure out where you are in all this..

    The difference is we like sharpe and snitz and boobies.........Most of the time.? I can say this , I have some of the strongest feelings about Sharpe and his game. Him and I have talked and yes butted heads many times... But I do believe for the most part he wants the better for the clan.. I will say if you need help he will give it.. DO i fell like he can totally fuck up a game or round or match.. Yes!!! I guess i just wish we were able to have places for him to use his talents and settings where it didn't affect the majority of the other players or the certain servers... Just being honest and he will appreciate that....

And also make  judgments about some one that might support someone else over his long useless ranting... lmao..  Sounds  like the thin skin to me ... LOL  I'm glad GG and I have a life outside in the beautiful sun and away from the keyboard.. Some of you should try it, Before it's to late.. LOL < Now back to my Monday morning..?

    Having been banned in my previous gaming life from numerous COD2 CTF servers - including being kicked out of, at the time, a major COD2 clan - for being too good (aka "cheating"), I have some personal opinions on this.  Guess where I ended up?  Here - playing on XI COD2 CTF servers where most of the other players were also "too good" - haha.  

    I do not support banning players for simply being "too good."  However, that's just my personal opinion.  

    My admin opinion:

    In a lot of our games, there are programs in place to mitigate cheats.  COD4 does not have these types of programs anymore, so it is a challenge to automagically catch people using "hacks."  Our only recourse is lots of spectating and the help of the OTHER CLAN MEMBERS to help police and provide evidence.   

    There are a handful of people that I hear complaints about regularly.  I have spent time watching all of those players and have played several hours against and with them.  I have yet to see any evidence of cheating in the form of using an actual "hack" like an aimbot or wallhack.  What I have seen - and see regularly - is that it appears some players are intentionally lowering their video settings or using configs to remove foliage, and I think this is perhaps our biggest issue in the COD4 servers right now.  It renders large, sniper-ish maps with lots of foliage essentially useless as maps.

    We won't ever get people to stop complaining about other people who are better than them.  That's part of the human condition.  All we can do is be reasonable and apply logic to our decisions.  If it's in the best interests of the server to eliminate a player because they 1) play on the server super frequently, and 2) cause a majority of other players to leave the server, then yes - I do think we should do something about it.  We have attempted in the past -with marginal success - approaching the player and asking them to "tone it down."  I personally hate this, but "it is what it is."  When that doesn't work, people have been banned in the past.  If I recall, at least two players come to mind who were banned for "being too good," so to speak.   In general if there is consensus on banning someone, I am supportive of it as in the best interests of the gaming community.

    I mean out of 12 years I've been here, that's not a bad track record.  The clan should be given some credit for running COD servers that have been regularly populated for over a decade with minimal headaches to the player population.  I think sometimes people need to take their blinders off and look at the big picture.

    Wow... That took a lot out of of you I'm sure.. you better go rest now for your next months input.. Actually good words.. Don't let it go to your head though.. :P ??

    Well since I'm admittedly one of those players that might something about a player here and there and how they are ruining the server i will give my 2 cents worth..Agreeing with  @RobMc ,crazy i know. But true certain players can come in a totally change the game and mood from a great even match and fun to a cluster fuck in no time.. The sad fact is that most of the people playing here that we might be thinking are hacks are simply players that exploited the game and things that can't be stopped.. Not wrong, but true sign imo of people that care more about themselves than server.. Should they be banned for it, no. I actually like some of these people ,and playing with certain people with better skill can always make your game better, Just like I try to claim in my golf  game. (still working on that) I do feel it has gotten out of hand, But there is really nothing you can do about it.. Sad fact ,there are people that get off on making others unhappy or trying to be something they are not..Shame we don't have a server with different perimeters that they could play on and let there skill ,cough cough and tweaks be used without disrupting the rest of us... Bappy Friday and Cheers!!
