Worst I did when I was still a noob, back when I was a Lance Corporal, was go onto a K&P server. I got my Basic Knife and Pistol, and Vet Pistol there. I regret doing that now, because it's so much FUN killing people with those weapons in regular servers, the ownage is sweet.

I've never padded outside of that, and that's maybe 100-150 points total at that.

I knew how ... but I never thought of padding, as what the hell ... it isn't about how much score you get man ... it is about how much have you earned!!!

I really hate those suckers who do cheat … they ruin the game and if it was up to me … I would make special servers for suckers … so they are not allowed to play with decent people, and oh … they get slow slow points on these fucked up servers …

I used to pad back in the day just because I wanted to get all the unlocks. I really like squeezing all the features out of the games I purchase. Rank doesn't matter to me.

I eventually hit 50K and was reset a few days later. I've since learned my lesson, although if it was "decriminalized" I would certainly do it again.

to get some small badges but soon found out that trying harder and more often I could get them the normal way,

I've not had this game all that long but I really don't see the point in padding. Awards should be an acheivment attained through hard work and skill, padding just cheapens them. Can anyone seriously feel pride in getting a knife or pistol badge on a pistol/knife server or any other badge they padded for. Similar goes for playing on high score servers.

Don't know. Truth be told, I'm still not entirely clear on what statpadding is. Although, I doubt I do it because I suck. haha...

ahaha... No, that's a bad thing.

I wasn't good enough to figure out how to pad. I probably should've learned the controls in single player mode. I just ran at helos, hopped in 'em, died, did it again, killing teammates, etc. Everybody hated me I had no idea the stats were even being tracked until abouot 2 months into it.
Your stats show it.

I didn't really know about the stats until I hit 8000 pts. Since then I have started playing properly but sadly I still suck.

I went on a knife and pistol server once by mistake. Killed a few people with a machine gun and got kicked.

I let some dude talk me into it back when it was the first patch however I ended up being the victim of a rape fest and didnt come out with any points but I had a 49 kill death streak by sgt rampage... I see him all the time in K&P servers. LOL so sad!

If you just play the game and start to progress, and pay attn to spawn points and how people cap flags its easy to score 100k points in this game getting 120 point rounds at the rate of 2 rounds an hour or a one hour round of 300 points it starts to add up just playing 3 hours a day.

The whole quick rank up strategy is gay and when it comes to the knitty gritty you're no better than any other padder and cant hold your own. And so you just stick to cheating because you cant learn how to play, you need a crutch and its quite sad.

All of my knife kills are legit, I just find its easier to stab a guy with a pkm than to go heads with him with my little l85.

I dont have a problem with people who want to play the game they want to play it but there is a difference between wanting to play K&P to do something different and then playing K&P to move ahead in the ranks.

I am ashamed that I did it in the past but you learn from your mistakes.

According to the current ROE and new versions that have yet to be written and enforced upon you every single BF2 player has stat padded.

Not all will be wiped though.   Its algebraic......the chances of you getting wiped are directly proportional to the amount of time you spend playing the game.  It is unavoidable.

Example, Read your town or county law enforcement code book in detail and you could probably find a way to arrest the old lady that lives across the street with the threat of incarceration.  You simply have to find the "right" kind of police officer to enforce that rule.

Read the ROE and follow any random player around for a night of play.  I am sure you can do the same.  Again you have to find the "right" kind of police officer.

I think you will find a healthy amount at the following sites:

www.bfroe.com
www.bf2rankedservers.com
www.ea.com

Enjoy.

sure, any experienced player who says they've never padded before is lying, flat out. whether you knew it was against the ROE or not, whether you were the victim while 2 guys revived and killed your dumb ass, i think it's safe to assume that anyone over 50k points has been involved with stat padding at one time or another
Sorry, but this is complete BS.  Most people I know that have over 50k points got them completely legit because they are either that good or just work long and hard at it.

edit: I'm of course referring to the stat padding where you knife/revive someone.  Spawncamping isn't stat padding, it's spawncamping.

Yep i did - look @ my score with my good buddy Chiggy. Back then I was niave and knew nothing - in fact i knew less than nothing. If I knew nothing then that would be something but it wasnt.

Stat padded my Basic explosives and (I think), knife. Cant remember, too long ago

if u can live with a padded account fine, if you cant fine, personally i love the stats, but id love to scrap the leaderboard. if that was gone ppl wouldnt care about measuring their nerd penises anyway.
Absolutely, love the stats, but they're for me and my mates...don't care about the rest of the world...you want to pad, go ahead. I know what awards I've got legit, as well as the few that I padded for.
