>>I use wireless LAN to connect my comp with my router. Probably because of that i get "endshot kick" from time to time. On public servers i dont mind, but on match servers its not good. I dont cheat, so i dont see any reason why i should get kicked. The endshot credit limit is 7, so imo thats senseless. Either its called cheating and should be investigated or there should be no kick like that.

hi again
of course theres no endshot kick with "hardwired" connection, but using a 20 metres cable is no fun, so i use wireless.In some forum i read that wireless is probably the reason for the kick.
Very short packet losses because of wireless, which you cant avoid if someone uses cellphones of similar frequency, result in "wrong end shots detected", although theyre that short they arent visible to the opponent normally.The strange thing is that there were matches, i played with 1% consant packet loss without any kick.
Normally (99%) i play on duc and pb servers, so dub 5154, 59998, 59999, 60001 and brad 59999 and borrego hepcat 5154. In each of these servers i already had endshot kick. I think ive never had endshot kick in "non-league" servers like norange or mofo, and i think neither on pimpi. Anyway, it doesnt happen very often, so on public servers its np, but if it happens during official matches its annoying.There are several reasons why i think endshot kick should maybe be removed at least from match servers.
1) In leagues there are less cheaters than on public servers
2) endshot credit limit is 7, so you can "cheat" seven times before you get banned
3) I havent heard of any cheater being discovered with endshot kick
Correct me if im wrong, but i think all duc and pb matches are recorded. Endshot kick means, as far as i know, that your bullets leave your tank at wrong direction, in the most obvious case backwards. Everyone is imo able to recognize if bullets fly wrong, so cheating like that could be discovered easily in replay.
Gilly told me that from time to time he gets "too fast" kick in GU for no reason.
Thatswhy i wrote my problem to you, because you were involved in the developpement of the cheat detector in gu as far as i know.
tnx for helping me
