Sadly, you've accused him of cheating when he wasn't and probably meritted your banning.

It's a glitch where any one player can appear invisible to you and you alone - It's totally a local error. To fix it simply type "vid_restart" in the console and it should fix it - failing that reconnecting will fix the error (for you or the person who is invisible).

Your friend who spectated him would have been able to see him so it would seem that you were making it up.

Sorry, that's all I can do to help you - if you really want to be in the clan still then I'd suggest contacting them and saying sorry and that you now know what it was that was causing it.

Other than that, they were well within their rights to kick you really - Never accuse or confront someone of cheating (especially a clan mate, lol) until you are absolutely 100% sure.
yes that is true but he could be a skilled modder making his own mods and crap for himself ed:
It's a local error, or clientside. This means that happens because your (you being the person who can't see the other player(s)) have a fault on your game that prevents you from seeing one player (or model as PAS pointed out).

In no way can another client force you to see, or not see, anything (besides models like the submarine and other weird things). They cannot go onto your PC and make the model they are using (stored on your PC) invisible. It's just impossible (in any game).

The only way they could make themselves invisible to you is by using an invisible skin that you have also got on your PC. Which would be stupid of you biggrin:
