Artificial Lag / Latency hacking

In the peer-to-peer gaming model, lagging is what happens when the
stream of data between one or more players gets slowed or interrupted,
causing movement to stutter and make opponents behave erratically. By
using a lag switch, a player is able to disrupt upload from the console
to the server, while their own console queues up the actions performed.
The goal is to gain advantage over another player without reciprocation;
opponents slow down or stop moving, allowing the lag switch user to
easily out-maneuver them. From the opponents' perspective, the player
using the device may appear to be teleporting, invisible or invincible,
while the opponents suffer delayed animations and fast-forwarded game
play, delivered in bursts.^[3] Some gaming communities refer to this method as "tapping".

The term 'lag switch' encompasses many methods of disrupting the
network communication between a console and its server. One method is by
attaching a physical device, called a hardware lag switch, to a
standard Ethernet cable. By flipping the switch on and off, the physical
connection between the console and the server is disrupted.^[4]
Other methods, called a software or wireless lag switch, involve using a
computer program. In this method, the cheater runs an application on a
computer connected to the same network as the console. The application
hogs the network bandwidth, disrupting the communication between the
console and its server. An example of such an application is Laggsta.^[5]

i have a name for this shit.... DISCRIMINATION!!!!

voted nr 3.this is a stupid rule , what is next : u cannot play a cw if u dont pay 100 euro per year?

Voted for option 3. Now all the conflict liking clans will abuse this to eliminate good players. Since I have wifi and I know that I can't move for few seconds sometimes I can be easily forced to spec because of that? Especially when the q3 engine is ages long and the netcode can't be optimized that much.
Bullshit.
