I bet he knows a good way to do it. You can log off any time you like, but you can't ever leave.

I assume it's trying to simulate the same effect in most FPS' where your accuracy is changed when you are attacked, but I just find it annoying. As for the centring, Jon & George Lambert's method works, but it is more work than is necessary.
