It's a kinda of bug. Use charge and then switch to stomp and when charge kills them it will be credited to stomp <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
The strangest kill sprite bug is where I 'killed' someone with a weapon I didn't have... I was using the G3A3 (or was it the M16, I forget) in Firearms mod and I got a pair of kills, one showed up as a G3A3 kill, the other was an M16 kill. I think that beats this little story <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

yeah, has this bug been squashed? because I'm rather sure I've killed people with charge while I had gore selected, and it was credited to charge, not gore... I've never seen a stomp kill :>
interesting statistics page anyway... not surprised bitegun is first, but I'd have thought LMGs would have the second highest number of kills... but shotguns account for almost 2x lmg kills...
oh duh, nevermind, this is ns: combat, where shotguns prevail :>
I am unsure if or if not this bug still works, but here is how to reporduce it. Enjoy, this is probally one of the oldest unsquashed glitches in NS, dating back to the first 1.0 release.
1. Be an onos.
2. Get adrenaline (not needed, but increases potential for repeated amusement).
3. Get the weapon you want to create an amusing kill sprite with and charge on a hud_fastswitch or lastinv. You should have charge as your current weapon and the one you want the amusing sprite for in memory.
4. Charge. Note the loss of energy.
5. Find a hapless marine. He may or may not be willing to assist you depending on the status of the game. Some may try to fire back, and disrupt the experement, so beware!
6. Use lastinv or hud_fastswitch to change to the other weapon. You can also use mousewheel or number keys, but this is more clumsy.
7. Kill the marine using charge before your energy runs dry.
8. Ta-dah! Stomp kills!
Note that this technique works for ANY weapon. Simply turn on cheats, and use give weapon_weaponname in order to load up, then use the same technique. This allows you, for example, to get PS kills, web kills, meta kills, and so on.
NOTE: This can not be reproduced with leap. Sorry charlie.
I know how to have unlimted energy as onos <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo-->

ah the old wrong wep sprite thing i was on CS 1.5 and shot some one in the head with the magnum(it was a beoutful shot) any the pic that came up was a crowbar lol i gota alot of shouting at on the server and have temprely renamed myself crowbar luancher.
Weirdest kill sprite bug I have seen is a gorge getting killed by a marine and the game crediting the kill to suicide with offence chamber(non-FF server as well and the marine definetly killed him).

suscinct to say, you own all
^^ I R L33TZ0R H4X0R!
1) sv_cheats 1
2) give_weapon *weaponname*
3) killall
Console commands in the order to do them.
Of course, you should only do this with people you know, and on servers that allow sv_cheats.
