30/20 is the default orangebox settings iirc, but anything lower than 100/100 will reduce their hit reg as well as YOUR hit reg on them.

The main problem with forcing 100/100--although a much more minor problem now than when cs was released--is that not everyone's connection can handle the extra traffic. There are, believe it or not, still people out there with sub-1mbps connections.

I know zblock can force rates, and I'm pretty sure there's a way to force them without it, but I don't know how. I'll read around and post what I find in case zero is interested. (Then again, he probably already knows how)

even sub 1Mb a sec should be fine for 100/100, it does not take more then 35Kb up a sec, a 100/100 will compleatly max a 56k modem due to overhead and download

yeah but i mean some ppl have smthn like
rate 1000
cl_updaterate 30 000
cl_cmdrate 7000

i mean seriously? and i would freeze them and tell them that i will ban them if they dont fix their rates bcos u would shoot them a serious HS 10 times while they are camping and not moving, and it doesnt hit them!!!

Forcing rates is like forcing safe sex.
