I really doubt much can be done, unless the cheat involves hacking the Army's servers. Most deathmatch cheats are based on texture manipulation, radar, and aiming aids. This is usually done client-side. AFAIK, hacking your own computer is not considered cybercrime, and although ethically it is wrong, I don't think it is criminal. I play UT alot, and the plethora of aimbots makes most online play suck. Luckily, server includes such as PURE and CSHP keep the majority honest for a little while. Why doesn't the Army put out some client purity check routine?

As for most of the cheats being client side that may be true, BUT those cheats do affect the coding of the swr that you have agreed not to alter. Again its in the EULA and TOS. By doing so you have violated the swr license that YOU agreed and can now be held accountable for such action.

| Don't ya love anon users. But to answer the question it probably happens because that is how they have seen it answered in many other places. I know I have seen the answer that I gave above many different places. Some where it has been explained much more exactly and others where it hasn't.
Happens to people all the time when they are around others. Put a group of people together long enough and they will pick up the same nuances, gestures and language traits as the others. Human nature.

Uhh...going by the name "D1Lazarus" doesn't exactly give away your identity. A registered "D1Lazarus" is just as anonymous as an unregistered "ploobidge". That's all. |
