brink? there's only like 13 people playing that game on steam still.
(google brink steam charts)

very good finding though. I'm sure if we added all of his game playing hours together (especially his time playing red orchestra) then we'd quickly see why barely anything has been achieved in ql in 4 years.

it also showcases just how little oversight there is on these 2 guys running quake live.

ok so i have not been playing since the 90's or even early 2000 but i enjoy this game and to see you on this hateful campain is... well not upsetting but somewhere between upsetting and annoying.

you had your fun with quake, now let others decide for themselves if they wish to do the same. many people will happily play 100% for free for many years so there is no financial investment only time, time which should be enjoyable for them, if not then they can leave.
the game has moved on fromwhat you want it to be, it is now time for you to do the same. sponge/sync/saprillo whoever else are not the devil, just a few people at least doing SOMETHING with the game. not "dick riding" or whatever some nerdds might say about anyone saying anything at all in their favour (i dont much like some of the new changes either) but to hate them so passinately and to go on a madman internet rampage screeching of forum oppression and thinking you are doing the gaming world some favour by preaching about how evil those in charge are and what a terrible game itis, well it makes you look very bitter and, well, i hate to say it but butthurt.

just how long will you plan to do this? will you continue the tirade until you are an old man or whenever the game will finally close down? if your efforts did actually succeed and the game closes, this will make a lot of people sad. it is very selfish to do this to obtain what? you wont be any happier, you will still be bitter about what happened to your game but you will have upset many to achieve this.

you had many years of fun with the game. please move on and let people like me enjoy it now.

wow so selfish very bad community. Much hate. Blah blah.

Except you turn it from the other side, and we WERE the community, we stood by the game for 15 years and now we saw extremely dumb decisions destroy most of it. I'd say a few angry forum posts for any member of the community is more than warranted.

In other's minds, for some reason, id doing something excuses them from all crtiticism, because look, they did something! Yeah, I should do something too and write an angry review... Lucky for them, I'm too lazy, but I completely understand anyone who does. Fuck id.

PS. Imagine any big sport changing, and put your arguments for it. Hey look, I don't care that you're angry that football now is a shitty version of rugby, let people who enjoy it enjoy it! There's no reason for you be angry! Move on!

well yes it is selfish, and you do not have to talk like an internet meme to disagree with me. what he is doing is not just criticising, or simply stating his thoughts about it. he is actively trying to discourage anyone else from playing it, getting banned from the game, getting banned from the forum on multiple accounts, and getting moderated here also. dont try to downplay his actions as some kind of mild criticism when it is clearly a spiteful tirade of malice.

yes, it is good they are doing something with the game. apparently it was do something with it or shut it down. maybe you and diabz etc would have been happier if it would have "died with dignity" or something, but i am glad it is still running.

you know, big sports have changed, a lot. years ago, "football" was a very brutal event with none 11 players per side, it was half of the town vs the other half and they would go through the streets kicking a pig bladder and beating the crap out of each other. look at it today we have these grown men rolling on the floor crying trying to get free kicks. maybe somewhere is a 300 year old man posting an angry rant on a football forum trying to deter new people from entering manchester united fc or buying fifa games? good luck to him.

and it is like if you were to start a new hobby, you really do enjoy it and want other people to see how fun it can be too but some person is there first trying to convince them not to because they... because they had 15 years of enjoyment out of it already :s

and yes, i would move on if something i once did enjoy changed.

You missed years of great community advice that they ignored because of their delusions, only to go with these not-so-thought-out changes they came up with on the fly. It's not about dying with dignity, it's about doing things that make sense.

If football really changed (making it a sport has good arguments for it, noobifying doesn't btw), people would be mad. If they had circles of people that they used to talk about football with, the topic would come up and they would be angry at those who made the changes. Makes perfect sense to me.

Are you serious or trolling? It sounds like you're trolling because there's absolutely no logic in what you're saying.

I've been playing since 1999. I have competed in hundreds of tournaments, starting back in 2002. I have played thousands of hours of Q3 and QL.

12 months ago I download a hack and use it in private server with friends to reproduce the aim of a known hacker who has been hacking in competition.

I'm encouraged to hack against the hacker so do and win convincingly.

I've never deployed the hack in game ever again, although I did stream a hacker with the hacks on to show his hacking (he since disappeared LOL).

I get permabanned for the above.

Are you going to stand by your assertion?

"no cheating" is right, in whatever form or shape, including item timers etc. (I suppose a good thing that the timers are in QL). And no one should ever be tempted or succumb to temptation. It is also a game problem imo. in q1 there were quite a few cheaters, but, in CTF which I'd say I played the most, there were so many other elements of the game that made you feel like you had achieved something and had FUN. The fun factor was so lol most of the time, that there was little need to cheat. Unless that arrogant little nub, who couldn't get there, wanted to knock you down. But mostly as a team you could over come these players anyway. So the cheaters got overrun. and had to cheat more, and then got caught easier. :)

It's only the ones who strive their hardest and cannot achieve some part of the game that are tempted. I am shit some games, but just work harder, and accept my fate :)

-no one cares what pushed you to make an incredibly stupid decision to hack nor does it matter even if anyone did
-you cheated, got caught and banned, what's illogical about that? should the other hacker be banned? sure, but by installing hacks you stooped to his level, broke the license agreement and got exactly what you asked for. SURPRISE! you have only yourself to thank, no one else.

3. Prohibition against Cheat Programs. Any attempt by you, either directly or indirectly, to circumvent or bypass any element of the Software to gain any advantage in multiplayer play of the Software is a material breach of this Agreement.


it's not 'an advantage in comparison to specifically whom (or what) you're playing against' and the rest of the description goes into more software specifics anyway.

I'm not arguing semantics with you because you're already wrong. The definition of advantage is possessing something the opponent doesn't, which doesn't apply in the case of hacker vs hacker.

There's nothing specific to my case in the policy otherwise you would've quoted it, end of story.

1. You're wrong.
2. I just did quote it right there.
3. "the rest of the description goes into more software specifics anyway"
4. Only in delusional cheater heaven can that description be twisted to mean '3rd party apps aren't banned if you're playing against someone using 3rd party apps as then it's not an unfair advantage'
5. You installed it to try and beat him, don't try claim you were going to use it to not get greater accs than you yourself could do half asleep, ergo, you aimed to gain advantage over him beyond what you were capable of yourself, ergo your logic is entirely flawed and the EULA does in fact still cover it.
6. Non of that matters because ."the rest of the description goes into more software specifics anyway"
7. By your logic people using aimbots tuned to 5% accuracy are exempt from bans as they're not trying to gain an advantage. PS. Lol no.

1. You're wrong (see, works both ways)
2. I systematically invalidated what you quoted.
3. You didn't quote any specifics, therefore there are none.
4. IT SAYS TO GAIN AN ADVANTAGE
5. I installed it to reproduce stuttery aim, any other assertion you make is patently untrue and you WOULD NOT KNOW ANY DIFFERENT. I set the aimbot to 100% in the duel. I didn't hide it. I didn't lie about it. I didn't use it in competition. I didn't use it to gain an advantage. Any assertion you make to the contrary is patently untrue, and you could not possibly know anything to the contrary.
6. None of what you say matters because you have not quoted any specifics, because there are none (I have read them)
7. I woun't say "by your logic" because you're demonstrated you're unable to apply logic at all.

I'm not a lawyer, but its still damn obvious even without the first caffeine of the day, here's a simple break down of the tldr paragraph you seem to be struggling with :
3. Prohibition against Cheat Programs.
This declares that Cheat Programs are prohibited. This is enough in itself to ban you.
Any attempt by you, either directly or indirectly, to circumvent or bypass any element of the Software to gain any advantage in multiplayer play of the Software is a material breach of this Agreement.
This clause attempts to identify what a cheat actually is in broad terms. You installed and used a program which is designed specifically to gain advantage in the game, the fact that your intention may have been to prat about with it set to 2% accuracy against someone of Cooller or Cyhper's calibre or even someone using a 100% acc aimbot is completely irrelevant.
The clause identifies what the software IS, not your personal aims for using it.
It is a material breach of this Agreement for you, whether directly or indirectly, to create, develop, copy, reproduce, distribute, or otherwise make any use of any software program or any modification to the Software ("Cheat Program") itself that enables or allows the user thereof to obtain an advantage or otherwise exploit another Software player or user when playing the Software against other players or users on a local area network, any other network, or on the Internet.
This just clarifies that you don't even have to play using a cheat, you will be banned if you're found creating or distributing etc as well. cunning use of the word 'or' also introduces the idea that to attempting to 'obtain an advantage' isn't the only thing they're banning. But each of these quoted sections stands alone as it is anyway, breaching any single one is a breach of agreement.

Hacking into the executable of the Software, modification of the Software, or any other use of the Software in connection with the creation, development, or use of any such unauthorized Cheat Program is a material breach of this Agreement.
Self explanatory, carefully note the "or" that makes it clear that any use of what they consider a cheat program is a breach of the agreement, you don't have to have done the work on it yourself.

Cheat Programs include, but are not limited to, programs that allow Software players or users to see through walls or other level geometry; programs that allow Software players or users to change their rate of speed outside the allowable limits of the Software; programs that crash either and/or other Software players, users, PC clients, or network servers;

programs that automatically target other Software players or users (commonly referred to as "aimbots") that automatically simulate Software player or user input for the purpose of gaining an advantage over other Software players or users;

or any other program or modification that functions in a similar capacity or allows any prohibited conduct.

Oh look, here's that "rest of the description goes into more software specifics anyway" bit I mentioned three times already that again clearly shows YOU ARE WRONG.
It further defines what is considered a cheat program, don't forget that it's already been stated that this clause is a prohibition against cheat programs, thus anything that can be identified by this (or absolutely any other section of clause 3. Prohibition against Cheat Programs.) as a cheat program is thus in violation of the EULA.
It doesn't matter if you can attempt to twist one sections intent to try and vindicate yourself, if any single other section can be used to invalidate that claim then you're in violation still.
In the event you breach this Section or otherwise breach this Agreement, the license granted to you herein and this Agreement automatically shall terminate, without notice, and you shall have no right to play the Software against other players or make any other use of the Software.
You are banned.
Goodbye.

Any attempt by to circumvent or bypass ant element of the software means that any attempt to change the parameters of the original gameplay is considered cheating and gaining an advantage.

In short, your were both in the wrong and should be banned accordingly.

Seriously?!?!?!?! What has happened to you is very simple. Even if you used hacks due to pure love of the game, you;d still get banned. "proven" yourself and used hacks, same result, banned.

Methinks it is your own logic that is flawed.

Ironically for you, is that you're telling people not to play QL, because you got caught out and are annoyed.

I fail to see a flaw in IDs logic here. Catch someone using hacks, ban. Simple.

"hacking against a hacker"
The actual truth of what he did was a little more complicated than that.
I don't exactly condone what he did, and I told him at the time, but he didn't try and hide it. He used them to stream someone else with wallhacks on to demonstrate his suspicions of another player.

I've been playing since blah. I have competed in blah blah. I have played blah blah blah of hours of Q3 and QL.

Past achievements do not warrant an indulgence for any future deed.

I used hacks against someone ONCE, when he had been using hacks constantly for 18 MONTHS, and my friends KNEW THAT I WAS HACKING AGAINST HIM.

So someone was cheating and yet not banned. You basically had these options:

a) Ignore this and continue playing the game. Consequences:

+ You still get to play the game
- Your pride might be hurt from forcing yourself to accept the fact

b) Stop playing the game in protest. Consequences:

- You can't play the game anymore
+ You can return later if the situation improves
+ Your friends understand this decision

Instead you chose option c):

c) Install a cheat too. Consequences:

- You prove nothing, the cheater doesn't care
- Your account gets permabanned
- Your in-game friends slowly avert from you

By choosing option c), not only did you lose to the cheater physically, but also mentally.

Now let's return to your review.

I'm doing my duty as a consumer, warning against a poor quality product and bad customer service.

No, you aren't. If you really did care about other people, you would have published a proper review instead of an aggressive rant. And stopped playing after that. What this is really about is that you had a bad experience with the game and now are trying to get back at them. Just as in the previous case, you can't just let it go. You need to show 'em.


TL;DR You had your candy taken away and now are trying to ruin the fun for everyone else.

Why the hell would you do that. Cheat and tell about it. At least keep it your dirty secret. Did you want to be crucifixed because that what was coming to you or did you want to share your story because your conscience forced you to?

Why were you hacking against a hacker? To hack him more? Overhack him? I don't get it. It's simply crazy.

I think - a friendly suggestion - that you should stop defending the case of using a hack and let it go. If you had a self-preservation instinct you would've let that one about hacks slide and maybe all would be well.
Now we've got an entire thread filled with references to you hacking.

Quite the opposite of what you wanted to achieve.

Probation placements aren't a two-way binding contract, especially considering you had to exhibit some sort of history of negative posting history in order to end up on probation in the first place.

Although you're right in regards to #76 being nuke-worthy, you're wrong on the reasoning behind the nuke: it was done on general principle (and not even by xou - I did it) of "dude X crossed the line swearing at dude Y", identities of either of you are merely semantics).

Also I could see your line of reasoning if you wrote something like "it would have been hypocritical to let other people write abuse towards me", but you're taking some sort of "entitlement" bullshit line instead. I'd suggest contacting the Geneva court of Human Rights, and starting an inhumane treatment "Diabz vs" class action lawsuit against id software, ESR and xou in particular.

By Denmark sothis 
While I get why diabz wanted to replicate jittery aim and what not in the interest of science, and even more so that he wanted to do it against another hacker (has it been proven that the guy he was trying to replicate was hacking or is that an accusation without anything solid?), I don't know why he actually did it.

Since theres been an abundance of whatabouteries and weird examples, I'm going to continue that trend and go on to say the following:
Even though I want to prove that getting shot in the foot hurts like a motherfucker, I wouldn't actually go and shoot myself in the foot to try and prove it. Namely because it would suck to be me.

I hope I don't need to clarify the stupidity involved in that example, but that is my impression of what Diabz did, in essence.

Diabz needs to deal with the consequence no matter how much he's done in his life for Quake.

Now, on the topic of the reviewing; sophia said it best that this sounds mostly like a case of extreme butthurt.
Though I'm all for everyone having their opinion and voicing it freely, no matter how it was influenced.
The icing on the steam-release cake was the part about being banned, and that was, in my opinion, not needed in the review.

Best course of action is to deal with it as it is, and come back strong when and if the ban is lifted. It doesn't help the case to be a dick about it, as it was a clear case of doing something you're not allowed to do.

Well the thing is that he believes "using a cheat" was not "cheating" in his case.

From what I get from his replies, it actually was cheating, but not to gain an unfair advantage; his purpose was to "even the field" and try to teach the guy something(?), because id never acted against cheaters in AU (corroborated by other AUers) after months of reports and flaming threads.

New QL review: A bastard child of QL that was a bastard child of Q3A and Q3TA stuffed together in a blender.

What theres to review here? Read Q3A review and remove half of the points and youve got original QL. Remove one point after each update. You will get a decent review score at the end, trust me.

I talked to a newbie player lately who shared with me these nuggets:
1) No one from the noobs cares now for Quake lineage because it wasnt ever advertised or made "sellable" to younger generation. Therefore for newbies this game is like Warsow, Xootic and other arcade shooters.
2) Yeah, he said "arcade shooter". Imagine that.
3) Noobs go in, get killed and ridiculed even faster than before (loadouts, hmg, ammo etc allow a veteran player to make a meat grinder out of any noob opposition now) so they quit as they feel the game is pointless.
4) They dont care for getting better in QL because they have other games like BF COD etc that don't have QL limitations or quirks and are far easier to learn and not nearly as punishing.
5) So: He wouldnt pay a dime for QL and he told his pals not to buy it because its weird, archaic and full of unfriendly people.

There you go.

So Spongebob and Sinkerror can post whatever they want, this game wont sell good.
The only thing that could save QL is being a niche hardcore shooter. But they blew that away and aimed at mainstream that's already hevily saturated. They probably have a monkey organize their game development and marketing by flinging its feces at walls and then devs interpret the patterns and use them as guidelines. No wonder it all looks like shit.

I can review that, I went through beginners portal at start of training. Although I modified crash model skin, to be Pam Anderson Baywatch version, so enjoyed watching her walk around.

hey guys, diabz keeps deleting my comment so here it goes again, the guy got banned for cheating and is now salty so he tries his best to defame the game and id software.

That's untrue, but I expect nothing less than shit to flow from fingertips of ignorant buffoons.

think about it, if the game had no anticheat how'd he get banned then?

LMAO does this guy know anything about Quake Live? HAHAHAHA

other things he wrote are equally bullshit as the no ac argument so don't mind him and just play & have fun

Equally bullshit?

So it's bullshit that Quake Live has no LAN?

It's bullshit that all the "new content" is repackaged decade old material?

Bullshit that there's no matchmaking? Bullshit that the Quake Live staff are only two devs and a support person? Bullshit that the development cycle is slow? Bullshit that suggestions from the community are ignored?

You're either an idiot or ignorant. Either way, you're the one that's full of shit.

Once again, shitty troll, shitty bait, 0/10.

full of bullshit.

because for 1, i never played q3 aand same goes probably for majority of steam players, so yeah... they are paying for NEW content.

also, quake live DOES HAVE a lan. community suggestions are taken in to consideration, just not from morons of your caliber. etc etc. could go on forever.

anyway you're an idiot. hell, you're even from australia and if i dislike something that's those aboriginal peasants trying to act smart just cause positive discrimination/affirmative action from the government gifted them a few diplomas. why do i even think you can understand something is beyond me.

still salty?

I don't accept your presumptions, your assertions are patently untrue and it's obvious you are uninformed and ignorant of the reality of the situation.

Also, "doing the right thing" (a term that can't be applied to reality since reality is relative) is propaganda usually empoyed by delusional religious people or right-wing politicians.

IE full of shit.

AMAZING LOGIC FROM THE EPITOME OF INTELLECTUAL RIGOUR, ESDF!


because for 1, i never played q3 aand same goes probably for majority of steam players, so yeah... they are paying for NEW content.]

Not even going to address this because it's fucking RIDICULOUS. All the content was provided over a decade ago, for free, BY THE COMMUNITY.

People not having paid for it or seen it before doesn't make it NEW CONTENT.


[q]also, quake live DOES HAVE a lan.

Point me to the last LAN... oh that's right, ID SOFTWARE REFUSED TO SUPPORT THE LAN SO WE HAD TO PIRATE THE SERVER, LOL


community suggestions are taken in to consideration

Show me one community suggestion that's been implemented. Go on.

On the other hand I can show you this:

"By Weird
Although these are valid points...
It's too late now. Before such community features (which I asked for in 2009 through to 2012) actually make it into the game all of the new players will have left.
That being said, some of the functions are actually in steam (I think) which might make a few of them stick.
Also the gameplay itself is very hard to destroy (although ID is trying really really hard). So a few players who didn't know about QL before will stick around anyway."

#rekt


anyway you're an idiot. hell, you're even from australia and if i dislike something that's those aboriginal peasants trying to act smart just cause positive discrimination/affirmative action from the government gifted them a few diplomas. why do i even think you can understand something is beyond me.

Oh, you're an ignorant racist too. Chalk another mark up on your riveting personality.

last lan was quakecon and lan servers were in full effect there. ctf lan as well. tdm lan as well. what's up?

as far as community suggestions go, i can tell you that mine was to add auto bunny hopping and majority thought it was an ok feature for new players. so there you go. you got your example.

as far as content goes, id had to PAY for that content to original map makers so they could make it available in quake live, so it's only natural they want a RETURN ON INVESTMENT.

wow. so uneducated. I guess that chasing dingos with your fellow tribesman aboriginese left a dent in your head.
