Hi guys,
Recently I've been seeing some players in our server (headshot) with a ridiculous m_pitch (very low). If I remember correctly, it isn't allowed, because a long time ago someone posted a cfg with it and John replied to it being cheating and not allowed. My idea is that it should be restrict it to to 0.015, no one should have less than that (default is 0.022).

Since it`s just a setting, it`s not seen as a cheat or anything. Ofcourse it can be annoying to play against someone who uses that. But you are able to use it yourself too.
M_pitch close to 0 brings its own problems aswell

just try to jump shoot him..
Still your biggest nightmare on ET

No it doesn't compensate much if you have the right settings for it, you have to play between it and sensitivity and m_yaw... Dutch ofcourse I can use it, but what about the people who don't know about it. It's kinda ridiculous to see a player dominating others just by a setting and others thinking oh he's just too damn pro. I'm basically trying to say just remove this shit and get on with more skills. I'm defending my opinion 'til death here :P :P

Well its wás always a pb setting but became outdated when gaming mice came on the market. They all have these settings and if you dont have a gaming mouse you can get software for it that.
And what Dutch said. tweaking this settings creates a whole new problem shooting players at a different height as you are.
To be short. its a rule that can not be maintained if you wanted to

might as well ban /sensitivity too, since some players don't use it!
(ET is a game thats highly configurable, It's the other players' disadvantage if they don't know some settings. Therefore; it's allowed. Plus it's not a cheat cvar, like r_shownormals -_- )
