The Cheaters make me SICK!

[lempkee]

i have tried to become a better network player with quake , quake 2 , heretic2 , freespace and shogo (yes amiga versions) , and everytime i play on the net (official servers) i get wacked in the most strangest places and all the time.

i dont want to sound like a bad looser (though i do get like 3rd place of 18 players etc)  but i am pretty sure there is some heavy cheating in the games (especially quake 1 , quake 2 and shogo) so how to eiter cheat?  or make the cheaters go away?

any tips is welcome , i use 3.21 of quake 2 , and 2.40 ? of quake 1.  (2.2 of shogo)

cheers

thanx for all posts , i must say that i normally get up with the 3best even if i have 200+ in ping and playing on my amiga.

in quake 1 blitzquake i get 40fps in 800x600 on my setup (a1200)

in quake 2 i get 26 fps in 640x480.

i suck in quake 1 really and i find quake 2 easier to win a fight, problem is to find an active server where my ping is low.

and yes i have broadband and more than most normal users so my guess is they cheat (seems to use auto aim or simmilar) + the rest is like 200 pings in front of me , the servers i used untill now has very constant kick ratio due to its supposed to be an Amiga only clan (any hw allowed)

anyway how to spot a cheater? , one that doesnt die even if you launch 2 missiles straight in his head and then he kills you, a cheater is one that runs in lava and jumps 2 times as high as any of the other players and ofcourse most of all one that always has good weapons!.

we doesnt host the server so i cant check if its allowed, but i will tell the lads

thanx .
