alrighty then, i have three votes to keep spectate the way it is...that's enough for me, so therfore, i won't screw w/ it.
it seems like what you people are telling me is that you use "spectate" to avoid white-disc or losing the next round...well, what if you fell late and the code knew that and spawned you in at the appropriate time such that there were no problems w/ either? you would still be upset that you couldn't send a spectate command to the server?
frito pointed out something interesting to me and that is that the spectate command doesn't actually cause the exploit. i'll start looking in that direction then.
btw, i have a key bound to "spectate" too to avoid the same issues, so i know. but, i been playing and i know about these things...noobs don't. wouldn't it be nice if the code did the work for you so you don't have to furiously jab at a key when things go awry?
