I have not seen that much abuse. of course, i do see a lot of people complaining of cheats, that are not cheats just very poor lag, or packet drops. both of these issues are variable and hard to quantify. on rare instances, i have seen blatant cheats......and the admins have all reacted very quickly...

I am personally an anonymous admin and anonymous player for that matter. If you actually see Grumbler playing, then it is most likely not me. The reason.......I like to enjoy playing.
