    Sometimes arrows will hit a person but do no damage, but arrows flying through people ;-; what was your ping and how much lag did you have?
    Also what was your frames per second in that match.

    I know Bunny and he just got new internet, good internet. I don't think it has anything to do with ping.

    You actually gave some quite good proof that it's his internet as he never had these problems before and he just got a new connection.

    Wireless internet?

    Maybe he was shooting people with a ping of over NINE THOUSAAAAA- Okay, okay. :rollseyes:

    Were you shooting at the edges of the characters sprites? Sometimes you miss by a pixel or two and it LOOKS like it went through them, or if you shoot the VERY edge of them, it sticks but does no damage.

    This has happened to me, and it's always followed by my client disconnecting from the server. When it happens, I just leave the server and come back. That always fixes it for me.

    Linux man. Linux laughs in the face of viruses. You can watch freaky porn on questionable sites all day, erry day.

    You know, if that's your thing.

  11. Then again, Linux is extraordinarily hard to configure if ya don't know what you're doing.

    And Allknowingfrog, Linux's resistance is purely because of the 9r532084932048209324 amount of distros available.

  15. Try an antivirus that's free. AVG is awful.

    I use Comodo; it's never failed me yet.

    I always liked Avira when I was on Windows. That's been a couple years though. Couldn't tell you if it's still good.

    @LordReudh: A small user base and a variety of distros definitely contribute to the lack of Linux viruses. However, Linux is also a lot more security-oriented. Linux requires you to type in a password when you change how your computer functions, etc.
     
  17. Avira is quite good still, yes.

    And yes, I have heard of the more security oriented Linux. Ran one, just Ubuntu, for a couple of years before I got sick of it.
