@MonkeyIsland ye not the best way to comunicate.


I know you dont aimbot that just too much for this game and ridiculous, just got angry because you said Shtaket cheat.

I just got angry because you said Shtaket cheat.
So how he cheat?

I said Shtaket cheated because he did in fact cheat. It was confirmed by CyberShadow, you can read more here:

What we know for sure, 100%, is that Shtaket cheated, however developers won't share HOW they caught the cheaters because if they shared that information it would only help cheaters hide the fact that they are cheating.

Rumor has it though, that Shtaket was using scripts/macros, the same thing Corujao uses except Shtaket was using it more subtly, but still got caught.

I don't understand angus why you get angry at me for helping to catch cheaters?

Wow Corujao, you believe cheaters should die? That's a bit harsh.

I think cheaters should be severely punished but I don't believe they should die, you've taken that a bit too far Corujao.

For a while I thought you shared such thoughts. I am glad I am no longer confused.

No, I said cheaters are scum and should be severely punished and permenantly banned, I didn't say they should die. That's what Corujao said.

Lol what the f@#! a macro can advantage you while roping?
Probably only in big rr scheme maybe? That sux? Back in the days only noobs was playing it?It was tower race ?
Who f@#!ing cares.

Tell me how he can rope better than us in ttrr or roper or wxw with macro.
I just want understand the way of cheat, im not getting angry on yo komo.
THeres a kind of thread dated 2011.

And back in the days alot of players on tus was using macro on hysteria, like lots of players was using a famous AHK

@angus most of the people will use roping cheat in a harmless way. They just look like clowns while spamming spacebar in unnatural manner while not getting any advantage from it. Although, there are serious ropers that would use script in a way to gain edge over others. Gaining edge in terms of getting through map faster in occasions where most non-cheaters will lose momentum. Shtaket used this cheat against me in cup game few months ago (and probably lot of other games). "Trained" eye can notice these perfect momentum gaining during his turns. Non-ropers probably wouldn't. That replay was sent to devs and they determined he indeed cheated. Don't know if that replay is still visible on tus, but you can check it yourself and then come and give your opinion about it being legal or not.

In my opinion, your average player who uses macros is not going to get any distinguishable advantage, as they haven't reached the top echelons of rope skill in the first place to take advantage of the speed macros/scripts provide.

It's like the Wooting keyboard I have, being able to set the actuation point and rapid trigger actuation so low is only beneficial if you're actually fast enough to use it and have the hand-eye coordination to control it.

There's very few players who would benefit from macros/scripts.

However, and this is the most important reason, in my opinion. If we were to make macros/scripts legal, then more people would find ways to make them more powerful and easier to use for the average player since you wouldn't have to worry about trying to hide it.

Also, I am aware of players using AHK in Hysteria, it happened against me in a TRL Season many years ago.
