... yeah but aim maps do improve reactions and accuracy, especially when played with a small group of people. When reactions/accuracy are added to a person's skill, that directly correlates to competitive play. And im not talking about those ridiculous orange aim maps, i referring to the one's like Yosh referenced 'aim_map.bsp'... just a generic flat map with some boxes.
As for the rest of Trudger's comments, its frustrating to see people get pissed off at someone just defending integrity. I find it hard to believe that any one of you wouldn't do the same for a family member/friend, and although the tact may or may not be there, the fundamental core of the argument is in the right place. The key in every aspect of working with other human beings is to not be judgmental, and try to understand what people are actually trying to convey.
Dice, when this went all down, i politely questioned the reasoning... as i read people's rebuttals/responses though, i realized there is a bit of ignorance coming from various people, especially by people that think they are 'good.' It's a very relative term... you can be 'good' amongst your friends, you can be 'good' in a specific pub, or you can be 'good' in CPL matches. In any case you are comparing yourself to something, and rating one thing against another. I by no means think I am 'good' at this game... In fact i think i'm pretty shitty. Sure i've gotten better over time, but Yosh has taught me a little bit of humility and well i think that has improved my mindset in multiple facets of life. At the same time, one of the reason's i cared about this so much was that there are a bunch of stats being saved on this server with my progression over the past month or so... i've seen substantial improvement in my play, and i had a few goals i wanted to meet before i spread my time out a little bit. But to sit here and abuse people of hacking is essentially admitting 'I am not good.' If you need to see a video of people that are ACTUALLY good, be my guest and watch the following link...

In my eyes, to get to that point, personally i must focus on aiming/HS'ing. I have the reactions (.185-.195 seconds) so thats not really my concern. I know HOW to play with an organized team (not that i would get that from a pub anyways), so all there is really left for me to do is work on accuracy. Find a good server with some good ping/reg, decent people, and some stats and i'm good to go.
If you guys don't want to lift the ban, thats fine... If you don't want talent coming into the server, helping to make everyone better... that's fine. This is the internet, everyone has something to prove, especially since they can do it behind a shroud of anonymity... but sometime's you gotta go 8-64 and realize 'Damn, i need to get the fuck over myself...' As for the dilly dally and the bickering, it's getting rather ridiculous.
