So the only reason you hate plus cfg is because you can't move?
Make a demo of a move you can make with a cfg other than plus and i'll be convinced that plus sucks. Before you decide to ruin all respect i have for plus cfg, remember that quake has 9 weapons.

I disagree that it's pointless...yet

Sorry, in the test above it's possible to cheat

And do you know why most non-europeans don't like it? Because they play on the other configs, play once on plus cfg, and discard it because it's DIFFERENT. Not because it's better or worse, but because of three simple facts -
1. Only servers they can play it are the european ones. There are better players there, so they get their asses kicked.
2. They ping badly. Dosen't matter that it's stable (usually).
3. They are so used to play their own uber-fast switch time z0mg configs, the couple miliseconds of switch difference makes it very hard to adapt for them.
I'd like to say i personally have absolutely no problem with movement on any of the configs, be it bro, e5, plus or whatever. It takes a few minutes to get used to it, sure, but it's really no big deal. Saying you hate a config just because you can't adapt to it is just silly. How much did you play it, anyway? Five minutes? ... And how much did the people that say they hate it play it?
I'll agree with one thing - this is pointless. You say you don't like spam, but are defending configs which promote it. :roll:

On the (off) topic of spam, plus wins in spammage thanks to the slow rail, hands down. I pick the 190 ping american servers over seeing my opponent change between his entire arsenal between two shots of me, any day. Also I haven't put an awesome much thought into it, BUT something feels desperately crap in plus weaponswitching when being used to the faster configs that feel more like they do what you want them to do. And yeah that's even with the ping difference included.
Don't think it's really fair to say Dakini only thinks what she thinks because she's used to the other cfg's, since isn't it the exact same thing other way around aswell...?
What I will say though is that it is probably a lot easier coming from plus than going to plus. Just not sure that's a good sign or means it's more skilled since it's frustrating, slow and spammy (for real, but I'm not sure what some people's definition of spam in here is, I'm using the commonly accepted out there one) rather than takes faster reflexes or anything.

Well, apparently my reaction time is faster than even the .150 seconds it takes from switch to grenade to the time it will fire. I switch to move and it won't fire, by reflex I switch back and then my intended move is lost.
It only takes a fraction of a second.
And the digs at my skill and the amount of time I have played the config are cruel and uncalled for. I haven't made any digs at any of your abilities.
And I've been playing on the plus config off and on for the past several months trying to get used to it. I've put quite a few hours into it. I play 3 to 4 hours a day during the week and 6 to 8 hours a day on Saturdays and on Sundays. an average of one hour a day has been devoted to playing on the plus config when I can catch other ppl playing on those servers. They stay empty the majority of the time.
I think at high speed, I move at high speed. I'm impatient and hate waiting. Part of being bi-polar even while on medication I guess.
@ Tor, Thank you

Ok, i give up, lol. I've been playing on 2!s servers for the past six months. Ever since higher switch time has been introduced, and the rail load time has been increased, there hasn't been even half of the spam there was earlier. But sure, it's spammy.
I've been playing on Deex's, the CTF servers (CtD and CtT), some random FFA ones for even longer than that, and 90% of the time there is a wall of spammed projectiles waiting for you on every corner. But plus is the spammy config. Unless you're refering to servers like Seen your huevos?, who have such high switch time, it might as well be rail only :roll:
Pff.

Yeah, I hate Geriatric Testicles (seenyour huevos) too.
I won't play on it at all. It's a noob magnet.

As much as I like huevos, can't compare with that obviously xD
But yeah nobody's neccessarily "wrong" here but it just seems really strange people have such completely different experiences, I mean like I can't see the logic why there would be less spamming on servers where rail is slow since my experience is that people use that time to go fucking parkinsons on their weapon switches... But yeah again, I do think we're kind of off topic. Is anyone still discussing if there should be One Cfg To Rule Them All?

part u dont understant or dont wana understand, the move u making [combo] are not reflex but lerned combination of keypressing couse yors reaction cant note as that fast, and if u let this fact touch yor mind u realise u must change yors combo to adding some pauses couse if u try to do te sequence u lerned it wont have the same efect here, thats why im writen u must use weapons weisley couse they will nor react on yors damands in 1ms as u get used to presing all u want in the same time.........
with the spam thing i will strongly disagre, there u got twice faster reloading wepons with 1ms switchtime and with treaning u can spam there much more comparing to plus.cfg, and the mater u can kill esier yors enemy by one weapon there its only u shot more and what we do call if u shoting twice faster ? in mine eyes it 3 times more spamy.... playing there i do use sg and rg as one weapon...

Oh I still agree that there should be one universal config for CW/FW.
Just not Plus the way it is presently.
A group of ppl should not be forced to play a certain config because that is the way another group of ppl like it and vise versa.
There needs to be some middle ground, a compromise if you will, between both sides. Once that is done, a standard config can be agreed upon.
Also, taking a poll on these forums isn't sufficent to determine what a majority wants. There are far more players in E+ than there are registed here. And a lot of those registered here don't browse and read much.

as u wrote "e+ players" and i do agree, so plus.cfg are mayoriti in e+ so biger amount not registered plus.cfg players are around 
to make it fair just use "%" insted of pure numbers of souls ']
