I've been seeing a lot of players blatantly speedhacking on servers without administrators playing lately. Speedhackers have the following two abilities: 1) the ability to run around the map at tremendous speeds, appearing as though they are teleporting around or lagging in and out; and 2) the ability to fire multiple times in almost immediate succession. I've seen gorges firing four spits within half a second, and the same thing with acid rockets. A single speedhacking skulk take down a resnode in about 6 seconds by himself. Each bite sounds like CH-CH-CH-CH-CH-CHOMP.
The speedhackers that I've come across have tried to play off their hack as thought they just "lag a lot."
Anyway, if you're playing on a server without admin on it, watch out for speedhackers. They're pretty easy to spot. On most servers you can type amx_who in the console to see if there are any admins on.

But please don't bring it here. Take it to the server owners and have them deal with it.
Pesonally myself I just sent an email to Gibgames to ban of course, a speedhacker. Lets keep these post to a minimum please, don't want the word to spread throughout the entire community.
Well as I posted before, how do you know it's a hack (external program)? Could be a simple variable change or exploit. People are too quick to shout "lol omg hax0r" nowadays.

Paranoia-2MB : Shut up. Players need to be aware of how to spot and report hacks and exploits. This post has no information whatsoever that would help someone find or use a hack. What's more, this post does not concern any specific server or any specific player. It's intended to raise player awareness so they can identify and report speedhackers to server admins.
LOLLERCOASTER : Shut up. Bunnyhopping is accepted almost universally, even in clanmatches. I don't use a script, because I can bunnyhop just as proficiently without one, but I don't complain when others use one. At any rate, that's not the subject of the post.
Paranoia-2MB : Shut up again.
Another bunnyhopper who refuses to respond when his own logic is exposed to him.

Oh no, it took me 3 seconds to google both of those!
Honestly, if you actually want to learn how to bhop, with or without scripts, all you have to do is google it. It's not some dark terrible secret found only on sites with porn popups.
As far as the "bug" goes, it's been present ever since Quake 2. It can be known to the developers if they just look a little, and yet it's still present in TFC, was present in CS for a long time, and Flayra <b>intentionaly</b> left it in for aliens.

Looks like he's going to respond now with something witty like "i refuse to respond to you you don't know what you're talking about LOL".

I believe it's being taken out for the next version. Result.
Also, Flayra accepted bunnyhopping as a good part of his game. If he wanted he could have easily disabled it. It may be an exploit of the HL engine, but it <i>IS</i> a part of NS.
It's not an unfair advantage because anybody can do it. All it takes is some practice... Or if you're lamer, some practice and some scripts.
Is leap-biting an unfair advantage?
How bout good aim as a marine?
Leading your shots with spit?
Now you clearly admit you want to go faster than your opponent. Maybe the opposing team doesn't want to bunnyhop because it's unfair and childish. Have you ever thought about it that way?
He is talking about biting 6 times a second and you guys start babbling about bunnyhopping?
There is <i>no</i> point outside of starting witchhunts nobody should have an interest in and pointing potential cheaters not yet aware of a new tool of malice to such threads.
Oh, and the next time somebody tells somebody else to shut up, I'll see to it that he can't do so for the next week.
