anybody can do it, why shouldn't it be fair? it has the advantage of getting out of sketch situations, but comes with the disadvantage that you can't aim/shoot/kill while doing it since you need to cap your fps.

its a movement technique openly accessible to all whats not fair about it? the fact that some people dont know how to do it?

It’s like saying driving a car isn’t fair because it got you to your location faster just because you don’t know how to drive a car

yes, it's fair

takes a good bit for them to get up to speed, if they fuck up or someone breathes in their general direction, all their speed is killed

Bhopping without capping your fps is fair. With capping your fps it's abusing a game mechanic👾

I think there is a fine line between it being a fair thing to do, and a dick thing to do.

Its fair that people use the skills they have trained for, we cant really tell em not to use those skills, it would be the same as telling people to not use any other skills for TTT that thry learned.

But is it a Dick-ish way to play? Most certainly, make yourself hard to hit, can easily delay the round by hopping around while the Ts cant catch up etc. Its not fun at all to play against, but it is fair play

The better question is, Will they report if you try to shoot them?
- If no
practicing on a fast moving target is always better then hitting those flowerpots to test your accuracy ;)

- If yes
Say they moved in front of you and your wallshot

wait you mean the bhopping game mechanic that basically has been known about since 1998, with readily available resources, servers for beginners to learn how to bhop, and how people across multiple games in different genres play their games only just to bhop, is an UNFAIR advantage? Well, I didn't know this, I can't believe these freakin exploiters!
