FUn I presume.

I thought that all spec chat was saved in the replay, so it would be easy to prove spec cheating...

2 minutes lol, it's a serious lack of luck for sure!

Nothing wrong with that Thrankos, just interesting that you can watch 100 games on that map and everyone will send their units diagonally through the middle of the map as it is the quickest way, so we move our units to avoid the middle, you'll see from the replay trolls makes 3 course corrections to move the transports in a curve to head north and while doing so spots your units on the hill top and instantly presses the D key.

You've already decided that spec cheating is going to occur and so your confirmation bias kicks in, i don't blame you, it's a possibility that simply should not exist and has long been a talking point in the Zero-k community that no one wants to address seriously despite a puritanist obsession with stamping out sub optimal gameplay, oddly spec cheating is always the elephant in the room.

The reference to your donation simply speaks to a conflict of interest within the administration and a reason for setting aside objectivity and is nothing personal. I would want to donate as well however having been around the community for some time i have seen a great deal of unreasonable, prejudiced or paranoid admin decisions and wouldn't want to pay in with no certainty of consistent or professional conduct from those who can remove my ability to participate.

The best part is that it wasn't even a permaban and they went to the steam community discussions to whinge and complain

Well, when you are accused of doing something you didn't do, you have all the right to feel frustrated.

Thrankos is obviously the kind of players that cannot accept defeat, and try to convert his humiliation by defaming people even while the game hasn't started yet!
If he was certain we were cheating, why even play the MM? He could have asked for an exit and refuse to play.

katastrophe "you will get used to it... "

Used to what exactly? If my memory is good, I never disrespected you nor had any issue with you. Why all this hate?

So to all of you, I might better quote Anais Nin who rightly said: “We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are.”

to confirm this: no, we never had issues with each other and i remember a very nice ffa we played. I have not watched the game and have no opinion on the case. I was plain bored when i wrote the post. I love the internet.

There has been a few times been accused me of spec cheating, however i could always prove how and why a certain thing occured with the replay.

This one is not conclusive enough but it's extremely suss... yet I feel sorry for the accused if this was no spec cheat. However, it's a good caution to others of the extreme intolerance of and how shameful and lame spec cheating is... DO NOT DO IT
