Wow. So you're pretty actively working on things. I mean, I get that my prediction is incorrect, but what I don't understand is why and also how it's only on the IBIS GG server. I can't think of a single time I shot someone on another server, hit my shot, saw the stain and didn't get credit. I know positively that the back knife issue doesn't exist on other servers - never have I been around back knifed while a person was standing in front of me on my client. If either has happened, it is so rare that I didn't even notice. Both problems happen on GG consistently and to multiple people.

Anyway, I appreciate the response and the explanation. I'm not going to sit here and say the problem is on your end 100% but there's definitely something between my client and the GG server that just isn't jiving. I suppose I could try different video configurations and see if one of the video settings is just too much for the game/the Source engine to handle or keep up with while I'm playing. I'm just so used to the look and feel of where it's at now that it's difficult to make a switch but perhaps that's my next step. That is, if you believe the GG server is functioning properly.

For what it's worth, I've got all my cl_ settings to what was recommended to me by Owns.
