Serenity, you have a few options.

1) Don't download RenGuard. Then all the servers you can play on are where the cheaters will be.

2) Download RenGuard, and know the servers you are on are populated with only legit players.

3) Program your own solution.

But, yes, we do believe there's a way to run a program just with the server to check for cheaters, but it will apparently take significantly longer to code because the details haven't been worked out yet. RenGuard is a solution that can be produced in a much more timely manner.

"which in other words is Spy software" - No, it's not. You're just using RenGuard to prove you are playing legitimately. Is a retina scan spying? Is a password spying? No. RenGuard is a way to prove to an FDS that you are playing legit. The server owners make the decision to use it. If they say they only want RenGuard users on their servers, then that's their call as server owners.

Hope this clarifies.

I'm the bawss.
