Yes there is, this is the bug I was referring too earlier, and the most complained about "hack". It is not easy to tell if you have it either, especially if you have a class that has a naturally high run speed. What you see is you just seem to be running fast. What others see is you are warping all over the screens, and you can be part way across the zone from them in seconds. I have seen it first hand on both my account and my wife's account. Now I know there are people that exploit the hell out of this bug, and I am not excusing that, and hell, there may actually be a hack out there. However, I see it so rarely, or any other exploit for that matter so rarely, that I believe most of the cries of "Haxx0rs" are people just plain getting owned by a better player.
