Step 1 : First, you must be capable of strafing, dodging, crouching and a little dexterity of the hands. If you are not capable of doing this, or refuse to learn how to do so, then don't waste your time reading this.
Step 2: Ok, now you will need to set your keyboard up in the fashion that your crouch key is easy to access, and comfortable to use. My personal settings are right shift for crouch and I use the arrow keys to move forward, backwards, strafe left and strafe right. Next thing you will need to do THAT IS ESSENTIAL for making this work is disable your sticky keys and filter keys. This can be done in control panel under Accessibility Options.
Step 3: Ok, now that you have done this, you WILL NEED TO PRACTICE HEAVILY. You will not pick this up overnight. It took me years to perfect it to the point where it is engrained in my playing style. The only description that I can give you (that is not confusing or ambiguous) about how and why it works is to continuously hit the crouch key and strafe (or move forwards and backwards). YOU will have to make the determination of what time intervals are neccessary to depress the crouch key and move (slide). The easiest way at first is to strafe left and right while depressing the crouch key at the time intervals that you find acceptable. It will take some time to "Feel" those time intervals, so don't give up if it doesn't work right away.
Step 4: Ok, so you've practiced and practiced and it still doesn't work for you. All I can tell you is, tough luck. You either don't have the motivation, patience, dexterity, or your configuration set up properly. Sorry.

Step 5: Ok, so you've practiced and practiced and it does work for you! Well, brilliant! Give yourself a pat on the back for being open-minded, determined, and not ignorant! Now you are ready for the next step, but not so fast, this is the final and most difficult step.
Step 6: This next step involves maintained crouch sliding, but with dodging included. This enables you to cover an extremely large amount of distance very fast, while being invulnerable to headshots. Most newbies will call it a hack when they see it, but it isn't in any way, shape, or form. There is nothing involved with your Unreal.ini or User.ini. It all comes down to how fast you can process the images in your brain and make them work synchronously with your hands and keyboard. This last step is up to you to figure out, because quite honestly, I only know a handful of people who can do it CORRECTLY, me included, and I have a hard time with it.
I seriously hope this will END all confusion and me being called a hack/cheat/exploiting turd

I don't do it as bad in Newbies as I do in other servers where people are either doing the same thing or running hacks/scripts. This is the intellectual way of escaping a cheating players script/hack, but without cheating back. It is a loophole to me, I don't care what you want to call it, OR how you interpret this procedure because I spent alot of time and effort to make this for you guys.
