Flew the length of the field as I riddled his plane with bullets, he bombed my hangars, and flew back. Never died. WHAT? Nope, it can't be. Has anyone else encountered this? It would be useful, playing against BluE Max. I'm just saying.lol
I ran into Mellim today and yep, he's STILL bulletproof! Me and another pilot pumped him full of rounds and he just flew on.. he crashed trying to shoot me on the airstrip with my brakes locked.. then immediately left the game.. so I think he KNOWS what's going on.. I even wrote to him in chat during the mission asking him "what's up with being bulletproof?" no reply.....
I will move my posts from the Who Is The Moustache Man thread here for you. I believe this is what we are being hit with. Not just the Stache but several other guys.

Stolen (with my lag switch) from wikipedia
Artificial lag
In the peer-to-peer gaming model, lagging is what happens when the stream of data between one or more players gets slowed or interrupted, causing movement to stutter and make opponents appear to behave erratically. By using a lag switch, a player is able to disrupt upload from the console to the server, while their own console queues up the actions performed. The goal is to gain advantage over another player without reciprocation; opponents slow down or stop moving, allowing the lag switch user to easily outmaneuver them. From the opponents' perspective, the player using the device may appear to be teleporting, invisible or invincible, while the opponents suffer delayed animations and fast-forwarded game play, delivered in bursts.[3] Some gaming communities refer to this method as "tapping" which refers to the users "tapping" on and off their internet connection to create the lag.
The term "lag switch" encompasses many methods of disrupting the network communication between a console and its server. One method is by attaching a physical device, called a hardware lag switch, to a standard Ethernet cable. By flipping the switch on and off, the physical connection between the console and the server is disrupted. The newest generation of gaming consoles has built in protection against lag switches in the form of voltage detectors, which detect a change in voltage when the switch is flipped. Some manufacturers have taken counter measures to bypass or trick this detector.[4] This can also be achieved by simply unplugging the Ethernet cord going to the console, causing a disruption in the player's internet connection. Other methods, called a software or wireless lag switch, involve using a computer program. In this method, the cheater runs an application on a computer connected to the same network as the console. The application hogs the network bandwidth, disrupting the communication between the console and its server. However, one cannot do this for an unlimited amount of time. Usually, having no internet connection for 30 seconds will cause one's character / player to be kicked from the game due to inactivity / no internet connection.
In the peer-to-peer gaming model, lagging refers to a player with a faster connection flooding an opponent(s) using a basic denial-of-service attack outside the game structure.

Hell you can sit and not move through a whole 2 hour game if you want. You may not be able to hack DF but you could definitely induce lag. There are videos on how to build one. My research continues.
I've been getting a lot of games lately where guys are invincible. Like the one Kes put on the Moustache man thread. I unloaded every bullet my Se5 has in a guy flying an EIII the other night and he still flew to my base and bombed my hangers. No exaggeration. I may have missed him 30 times out of all of that. It wasn't many. I throttled back and circled around behind him midfield. I shot him all the way to my base until I had no ammo left. He bombed and I reloaded and shot him probably 20 more times before he died one time. I have probably had 4 or 5 games like this over the last week. All different guys. They may not be inducing like the Stache but maybe they are. Either way the poor signal boot needs to be added.
Here you go kiddies. Lag on. Can we please smoke the Stache and his IP address now? Would it be a good idea to add the weak signal boot now? Or should we all build one of these? 5 minutes, a 3 dollar light switch, a screw driver, knife, & cord are all you need. We can all lag like a beast. All we have to do after that is drop our bombs and spiral around every where. No one will stop us.
Here is my quote of the day. Zup wanted an explanation when he banned him. He wanted him to come to the forum and explain himself. Here it is.

I think we would be silly to think this isn't happening here. We need the weak signal boot. We need it to be quick. Like 10 or 15 seconds of bad signal and you are gone. That way switching it on and off will not help you much. It also needs to send some sort of report to ECHOBOOM when a player is kicked for poor signal. If it happens a lot to the same player then he needs to be banned permanently for cheating and inducing lag. Send them an email that says you have been banned for poor signal quality over an extended period of time. please check your service and device and try again later. Tampering with game quality and server signal will not be tolerated. Have a great day.
No questions asked. Instant ban after say the 10th time the same guy is caught with a weak signal in a certain period of time.
