There's jus' no fking way it is humanly possible to lean all the way left and all the way right (like 40 degrees form what Ive seen, each way) while running and shooting! You'd fall over the first time you'd try it in real life. I've seen plenty of war time footage of WW2 soldiers in real live combat (I'm a History Channal junkie), and NOBODY ran in those situations like some of the folks I've seen (leaners) playing on-line in MOHAA gaming.

Does it make them (leaners) a harder target to hit? Sure. Is it an effective tactic? Maybe. Does it look totally unatural and take away from the gameplay and sense of realism for others? Yep. When I see leaners of this type, I play long enough to kill them over and over (when I can that is), and then I find a game where ppl don't try and defy the laws of physics (too much anyway). I realize that the 'A'/'D' key combonation, left to right side to side 'dance' is also impossible to do in real life, and I'm guilty of doing that. It really isn't possible to do THAT either, but somehow it doesn't look as goofy.

Bottom line (to me anyway) if you lean while running, (the completely left and then right type of running), then to me you're gay, and deserve to be shot on a regular basis. But hey, that's just my opinion.
