Can You Tell?

Mercior, a friend of mine and writer of stratplan has recently become disillusioned by apparantly easily attained cheats for ns. Which imo is standard in most mods, the problem is, as with any cheat is its damn near impossible to tell. Now I personally find it interesting watching demos to see if I can or not, and frankly I cant. This depresses mercior deeply, I however just see it as another problem of the game that can be played around. Can you tell in this demo(of him testing cheats on a public server)? (CAUTION strong language, tired individuals and drunk dutchmen)

I am also interested as to peoples tolerance policies on the subject? I know that cheats have nothing to do with the game itself but it is a topic that seriously reaches players. So, what do you find acceptable?

edit: 5am spelling mmm

    OK, all I saw in the first one was a guy who kept bunny hopping behind a guy who used some sort of script that obviously didn't help his efficiency much.

    The second one, I saw absolutely nothing in... Just a skulk running around, biting, dying, parasiting, etc...

    Now, is it just me or does anyone else see none of the HUD except the health and sometimes ammo?

    I've seen alot of marines with aimbots in servers... killing a pack of skulks all around him with his LMG without reloading.

    Don't tell me it was skill,cuz the guy's turning speed was uber high.

    Not ingame, I meant in the demos. I play it, and nothing shows up except the health and ammo.

    Basically it's like r_drawviewmodel, but I cannot force it to show the stuff.

    There's really no excuse for "trying out" hacks... either you're hacking or you aren't, it's that simple. If you want to see what a hack does, load up a LAN game with a friend sometime. Absolutely no excuse for ruining other people's fun on a public server like that.

    in demo 1 an aimbot is used constantly, in demo 2 a wallhack is used constantly but not an aimbot at all.

    Now if only VAC wasn't so bloody useless that they still can't detect hacks which are more than 1 year old...

    Type sensitivity 14 and voila.

    Many NS players are age old CS veterans you know.
