Using a keyboard is cheating mango!  For example, with my joystick I get full anologue control of my soldier meaning that if I push the stick slighly forward, I will creep and I have to push it all the way to walk at full speed.  Now let's say me and you meet at close range and we both start strafing; if I want to go left and right I have a delay in my soldier speeding up left, stopping then speeding up again to go right (this is realistic!!!) whereas you can spam the a & d keys and move left and right at stupidly fake speeds with no delay........

...although I could just set up a macro that makes me strafe at full speed I suppose
You and others keep comparing apples and oranges.  BFS2 is played using peripheral HARDWARE.  There are going to be differences in the response times in those peripherals just like there will be with any hardware config.  The same will be true of connection speeds as well.  External SOFTWARE, i.e. macros, are completely different.  The only leeway I'm going to give you on this is for key bindings and that's it.  Tying key bindings together into one key is cheating, plain and simple.
Prove it!  Show me the rule and I'll give you +1 karma

=OBS= EstebanRey you clearly are a nub.

MACROS ARE FOR NOOBS, get some skills

RSI = wanker, press the keys yourself, 'don't help' BAH you are clearly demonstrating your simple nature

note: you don't have to worry about ammo cause your kdr is less than 1! ROFL
I presum this is you http://www.bf2stats.nl/player/44395526/

I really wouldn't go slagging anyone else off with stats like yours.  Let me guess, Panderiz loads up game selects US team, Spec Ops, gets in tank and repeat.  Man you're the most one dimensional player I've ever seen!  At least I have a good mix of kills/time with other kits and armies you just use one kit, one army and one weapon - the "K improver for utter noobs" the tank!  Man you have 13,000 kills with armour I would be embarrassed!!!!
OMG are you retarded, or just 12?

You may play across most kits, but your fucking useless as ALL OF THEM!, EVERYONE OF THEM, oh except the noob tube.

You don't even have a overall kdr over 1, so basically your a waste of bandwidth and don't help your team.

Hmmm does it matter if I play US a lot, is there any advantage on the majority of maps for US? maybe only karkland but hell yet again you demonstrate the floor in your point.

Also asshat, I havn't played spec ops since around march, now I generally play assualt or medic, and depending on the state of the round AT or the odd sniper.  Also I hardly use armour any more, if you explore noob boy you'll see almost all my game play is now based around inf and capping flags.

I'd like to see disabled lables next to those players that use macros.

Finally, I don't play the game for stats, just to win the round and have fun, stats are just the result.
You have spend nearly half your game playing time in vehicles so your "stats" are irrelevant in my eyes.  Easiest way to build up a good K and get easy kills. So what if you haven't used a tank since March, your stats are based on your gameplay since you started the profile so if you can show me recent stats than I might be impressed.  As with my profile which has on it all the time played when I first starting playing the game and has had a massive effect on my overall stats.  Maybe I'll start a new profile and see what I'm really like but then I don't want to bow down to people like you who think they can gauge exatly how good you are by comparing stats without any regard to the fact they may include the players "learning period" or even if the same guy uses the profile (I have friends that use a joint profile as one is good in a tank and one is good on foot so the stats make them look a good all round player).

P.S That is how you post a reply without included pathetic, childish insults..........

Well I could see some good use for this tool.
I am looking for a way to do 2 things...
1: spot a plane from my jet... this tool could bind the following string to one of my joystickbuttons Q, mousclick.

2: switch from my primary gun to pistol and back with one button. Used to have this set up in my Urban Terror days... worked like a charm... Now I bave set up pistol and primary on 2 mousebutton which is a waste of one perfectly good mousebutton (which could me used for grenades). Don't know how this tool could help me with this?

Um what?  So let's say I get arrested for eating a chocolate bar.  I go to court and ask them where it is in law and they would have to release me as it isn't.  In you view, it is cheating but no where in any EA/Dice literature does it say that it's cheating so you have the authority of the game makers do you then?

This isn't a court of law, this is a court of opinion and you have been found guilty.  The only reason the macro hasn't been definitively outlawed is because there are legit macros that can be used.  You're arguments continue to not hold water. 

But for arguments sake I'll answer your question.  Identity theft, internet scams, and computer viruses didn't have any laws against them either.   They became illegal because they were wrong.  Since you want me to be as specific as I have to be with my 5 year old, here you go:  you're macros while technically not illegal are still wrong.  There...now you have been vindicated...now you are justified to use your macros...but you are still a cheat in everone else's book who tries to build the community with fair play and integrity.  Congratulations.

It says right in the ROE that the use of 3rd party software is a cheat. I'm pretty sure someone already pointed that out to you, but I guess you failed to read or understand what that meant.  All you are trying to do is justify your use of something that without a doubt gives you an advantage over a player that is not using a macro.  Pushing and holding a button for rapid fire is much different that repeated pressing a spacebar and analog controls vs. "a" and "d" (you more than likely have keyboard too and no one is stopping you from using it) so your whole keyboard is cheating thing is just dumb.  Basically you are just spouting off a bunch of bullshit. Macros are cheating, but if you need them then use them. I haven't looked at your stats but what I've read about your stats, those macros don't seem to be helping you out all that much.

That TOS is bull.  Firstly it applies to EA Online and not BF2.  BF2 uses Gamespy for online accounts so you need to post theirs.  Nice try though

Give the guy a break seriously.....

if you don't like it, leave it, it's his business, if you consider it cheating he's "only cheating himself"

it's not techinically illegal so just let it be, he's just making use of what he has and using that to his advantage



THE END!
