Spawn invulnerability?

Spawn invulnerability = 3.0 feature. This was on Lunixmonster... furthermore I don't think I've seen invulnerability work in Classic.

Wasn't an admin, and besides, glowing goes away when you die.

I think the response you're looking for is OMG HAX.

No, really. I have no clue what it could be. Maybe just a random bug? As long as the skulk isn't moving at light speed and taking down HAs with one bite, I'm not going to leap out of my chair crying foul.

Heck I probably wouldn't even then. I don't move from this chair unless nature or an angry girlfriend requires it.

This from the same guy who ran his onos into the middle of 6 heavy armor marines, devoured a guy, then ran in circles getting shot :D

I was cloaked right behind you guys, stuck in the corner. You were all welding each other and I was afraid I might get uncovered by a weld so I just said "To hell with it!" and tried to do what horribly, horribly little damage I could do.

I heard if you type "there is no cow level" as a skulk, you can get invincibility which is observed as a curious glowing.

One of NS's lesser known secrets.

Yes I'm sure it's as useful as typing GG HMG in the console.

Doesn't every mod have it's silly newbie jokes though? I think my favorite in NS is still the 'hey, check out this secret in the ready room' trick. (runs at wall, jumps, hits f4) Watching reams of marines bouncing up against a wall is just too funny.
