What more could you ask for he's playing from a uk educational
establishment, drive down there look for the computer bay go over and
stand behind him watch him play for a bit then break his fingers ;)
problem solved.

But if your a less violent man you could still try e-mailing/phoning his
college/Uni I don't think many college/Uni's in the uk would
let their students play Quake on there networks and even if
they do I'm sure they'd still have something to say about his
actions.

Yeah thats fair enough IMO. Its so difficult to prove who's cheating
in Quake even a recorded demo of the bot in action could be forged,
and I'm sure the Demon team have better things to do than debate if that
lightning was coming out of his ass or not :).

It would be nice if they could delegate some trust worthy Quake players
with the ability to kick, ban.. players perhaps, so long as its not done
like the 3 impulse password system.

As a last resort there used to be some code about that sent a
spoofed connection to the quake server thus disconnecting the player
you spoofed as, I believe it still works.
