Apology accepted for the time you did it to me too... You don't have to say it, I know you feel it.

It did seem insulting, intended or not.

Hi fscott,

I'm sorry I did not explain right away, but I did explain. I guess you missed it. I couldn't help laughing at first because you were so intent on "exposing" me in such a public fashion, and you were so certain that you had uncovered a cheater.

I don't recall the Vehicle base number, but I simply clicked the northwest direction from there, and poof! I magically appeared where you saw me appear. That is a spawn point.

Generally speaking, if you believe that someone may be cheating (it's happened) its best to use "alt s" or "alt r" to get a picture of it as supporting evidence, and then either e-mail the suspect for an explanation, or take it straight to AH administration.

No harm done here. I can understand why you thought I was cheating you.

<S>  Cheers, Gunthr

Thx Ripsnort   yep, was good clean fun. LOL Actually all this confusion is your fault for getting me laughing with your comments "Gunthr be 'splainin", etc so I couldn't tell fscott in a timely fashion what the deal was...

Antix I'm sorry if I insulted you too.
I know Fscott is new so I am just trying to help him help us.  

I had a chat with Ronni about the bug report forum at the Con.  HTC really does use that forum - if you look at the bug fix lists and the posts on that forum, the similarity is no coincidence.  

So I say this to everybody, if you find a bug, put it in there.  That will maximize the chances of it getting fixed.

Thanks funked  

I will say though, and this is probably because they have no idea whats causing it, but I posted a report in the Tech Support forum... (as per funkeds idea in that other post) And Ronni asked me a couple questions. which I answered, and its not resolved. They're probably trying to figure out how to recreate it, or how to solve it. But a little note would be nice. Actually solved would be a lot better.

I destroyed a spawn point once. Was in a canyon on the current terrain, trying to zero in on an enemy panzer (I was a panzer too). Got a near miss with an AP round just to one side of him, buffer came up with Host: Spawn Point destroyed

dunno if it stopped people from spawnng from there tho, I was killed 30 seconds later.
