Just witnessed the most bot team win
It was infuriating to watch is the point of this post. They won because of two things, aim assist, and for some reason having a connection to the server that was obviously better than others. The te...

I dont think you could argue that aim assist is aimbot at all. Afaik they are 2 completely different things.
I play on console, but i am always suprised that m&k pc players complain about aim assist. Theres no way i can compete on a controller against the range and speed of movement and response times on m&k, as an ordinary player.
By the way, clarity again please, what fellow volunteer are you talking about? Thanks

I wrote a lengthy response, but it got deleted, or it's being looked at since it had links? So this will be shorter and to the point.
Aim assist is a form of an aimbot. They can both work the same way depending on what you're using and the parameters you give it. The amount of assist players get now days with a controller, if I had seen that a decade ago, I would have called that a "soft lock aimbot".
How about this, you think Xim is cheating? I don't think you even understand what it does. It EMULATES a controller so that you can use a mouse instead. It can't do anything different then what a controller can do. So if you think aim assist with a mouse using Xim is cheating, then think about that for a bit. It's only doing what's possible with a controller. I'm aware the new one has recoil scripts now, but people still use the old ones, and then there's a lot of people that don't use the anti-recoil functions. Also, you will not get banned for simply using a Xim, you know why? Because it doesn't do anything that a controller can't already do.
If you were actually interested in this topic you could easily search for things like Apex accuracy charts, Halo Infinite, and so on. There's charts for Apex R5 and Halo Infinite that clearly show that there's a BIG advantage to using a controller with aim assist. There's also a good article on the Washington post about the kid that won the Fortnite solo tournament, and when he won, he said "thanks to aim assist" lol.
When you responded to me defending your earlier post, I read it as you were defending a follow volunteer, I didn't realize it was just you again. I do think you were over policing the forums and being weird about the cheat thing. I don't think that's how you should be moderating a forum. You're being a tool is my point.
Simply put, i dont think any cheating is ok, yet it appears you do. Name calling is really childish.
I had a lengthy discussion at one stage with someone who fundamentally understood the difference between aim assist and aimbot and they explained it to me. Perhaps you need to do a bit more searching and not just make assumptions and assertions.
@OldTreeCreeperWho is this person? What is their credibility. Clearly I've done more research than you, and I've given you what you need in order to read up on the subject, yet you never will.
You are overreaching a bit as a moderator. I think it's childish to chime in and say "you better not even hint at cheating, otherwise you're gonna get banned". Then to follow up, "thanks for clarifying that you in fact did not recommend someone to cheat". Seriously dude? Let conversations naturally form, you don't need to police things before they happen. If you didn't have the volunteer badge, I wouldn't have said anything, but you're sporting it, so there is some responsibility with that.
Using a Xim is not cheating, and that's an opinion. Saying that is outright cheating is another opinion, not fact. It cannot do anything different than what a regular controller can do. It emulates, doesn't change the function in any way.
