I love it when im called a cheater in COD, especially when they die from my tactics. Often im pinned down by someone so i throw a smoke out to distract him while i take a different route and end up knifing him, i dont even go into the smoke or near it.

Sometimes i just get called a plain cheater because ive gotten a few fairly shocking kills (im not trying to talk myself up, they really were pro), like countersniping a well hidden guy, headshotting through a wall by predicting where he is or just chucking a quickscope.

I have been banned a lot in DotA because of how the game is amazingly easy in most cases for me (watch out Demi-God, here I come) and some hosts can't take any bull at all. I called a host a dick and he banned me under hacking than made a game with the name of "DOTA AS >> DOMMYBOY IS GAY". Though my mate who hates DotA wanted to test out some hacks so he made sure to screw him over.

I gave up on DotA as I only ever met any nice people except for about 3 nice people and 1 of them was an actual hacker. It is a great game though the community is terrible. Thank god there are no mics in Warcraft 3 though, I cant stand children that scream "noob".

I've been accused of hacking in Counterstrike so many times that it's sad. I've been playing that game since 1.2 and I don't even like changing my skins, let alone load a hack.

I just look at it as a round-a-about compliment.

I'll admit I've used a hack for CS:S once, this was when it was still beta with like 2 maps available. I never denied that I was cheating simply because it was just an experiment and I kinda had fun.

Anyways, after using one of these things you really do learn a lot about how they work and how to spot other cheaters. One of the easiest to see tell-tale signs of a cheater in CS:S is to look at how they deal with the recoil when they shoot. Like if you see the guy shooting and his crosshair just goes downwards all the time, then yeah he's at least using a no-recoil. Now some good players do it as well, but it's really easy to tell the difference.

Back when I used to play ICTF (Insta-gib Capture The Flag) in Quake III. I would often get accused of cheating. On some maps I'd exceed 60% accuracy with the Railgun. The funniest part is that I hardly ever played without music blasting, so I really couldn't hear where they were, but I had a real good situational awareness at the time (Something which I think I lost with time). I would often times be able to accurately predict where anyone is at any given time in the game.

I've also been accused of wall hacking in CS:S a few times. The best way to shut someone up when they say that is to tell them "I know where you are, that's true. Basically you're NOT where any of my teammates are." Good ol' radar.

I was accused of cheating in Halo 2, about a week after launch. I was driving a Warthog on Coagulation and my gunner (OMG a gurl!) was just racking up the kills. You see, the opposing team would just rush out behind their base and stand there with their SMGs, and we'd gotten bored of waiting for them to either rush our base or come fight in the dry wash. So I got on the wheel and my teammate got on gun and orbited their base, gunning them down faster than they could respawn.

It's like they didn't know there were grenades you could throw, or bigger guns inside the base, or better places to fight from, or their own *censored* Warthogs right there with 'em behind their base... nope, we were cheating because we wouldn't "get out of [our] truck." *facepalm*

The only game I was ever really accused of cheating was Counter Strike. Back in high school I used to play the game religiously, and was very good at it. That wasn't the problem though. I was consistently good, and everyone on the handful of servers I played on, knew and were used to it.

I put the game down for a year or so, and was eventually drawn back to it. Hehe, I wasn't even close to how well I used to play. No problem for me,I accepted the loss ( I just dont have enough time in a day to devote a great deal of it to a game anymore) and enjoyed being average joe player. I picked a server and stuck with it. However, some times I would just get so into the game that I entered a zen-like state (some gaming equivalent to super-saiyin, if you will) , and became just unstoppable. It was the consistency that got me banned from the only server I played on. From the other players point of view it looked like a distinctly avg player was "turning on tha h4x". After a particularly brutal spree I was accused of hacking by one of the server regulars, with most of the enemy team (and some of my own) taking up the cry of "h4xor", I was promptly banned by one of the new admins (whom I was not well acquainted with).
