I mean, there are people that ban you because you killed a server mod.
"OMG YOU KILLED ME! HAX - BAN!"
Now is that fair?

So are you complaining about RenGuard or are you complaining about the server owners/admins/mods? RenGuard is a program that attempts to stop people from cheating. It is not foolproof. No one claims that it is. However, it filters out MOST of the cheaters at the expense of some *N00B* mods kicking/banning innocent people; but that is not the fault of RG.
I reccommend that if you are a good player, cannot get RG to work on your computer, and find yourself facing frequent criticism that you listen to what Goztow wrote and confront the owners/admins/mods directly. If that doesn't work ... find a new server with more reliable and less ignorant staff.
The problem is not so much the war against cheating and the use of RenGuard. No. The problem is more the fact that anyone can afford a gameserver these days ... half of them are ignorant ... and another 25% are power-hungry children.
Yes, RenGuard has problems and YES it may have some responsibility for the ignorance out there. But for the most part the community is dying because of the community itself ... the people. And if you have any hope in this game staying alive a little bit longer, you need to be more supportive of people like BHS who slave over making anticheats and programs that help make your gaming experience a more POSITIVE one; not one that kills the game. -_-
