Okay,
1. I would assume it goes along roughly the same lines as DPI glitching.
2. I wouldn't have thought so as in a real car you can hop across the seats to get out the other side?
Don't quote me on that but I'm sure 1 is exploiting.

exactly my thoughts, but sometimes you do it accidentally without even noticing you're going ham on the X key

1. Expand further, maybe even provide a video.
2. No, unless you’re going to ram into someone, which is bannable anyway..

DPI = Spin really fast, Spam X = go up and down kinda fast.
Not similar in any way.

Just think of it as real life.
1. I would say yes as when you are shooting you wouldn't crouch then standup the crouch ext. to avoid bullets.
2. You can crawl over to the other seat in a car in real life so I wouldn't see why it would be an exploit.
if you're unsure just think can I do this in real life. But follow the server rules aswell xD don't ram into someone when the shoot at you cos you would in real life xD not the best advice now thinking of it

Both make you move unnaturally fast, both can be used to avoid being shot.
So kinda similar!?

DPI is known as a glitch and is exploiting to do, if a person spams x its doesnt mean you cant shoot them.

Thanks for clearing it up for me, I'll try avoid it at best but sometimes it just happens...I believe spamming X sort of messes up your hit box on arma so i would say it's a no go.
As for changing seats in a car, i don't personally see an issue as you can climb over the seats anyway IRL

Actually I need to correct this missconseption of spamming X!I believe spamming X sort of messes up your hit box on arma so i would say it's a no go.

Here is a really good explanation how arma hitreg works:
Making this movement has nothing to do with the actual hitboxes or avoiding the hitreg as the hitboxes are moving in your computer making the user spamming x m8by lag abit more, but if you try it it wont be anything bad.
Thing with the X spamming however is that in arma the hitboxes have their own HP but the player has also a "general HP" or whatever you want it to be called (you see this in your bottom right ingame). Shooting someone to his arm reduces the HP in the hitbox of arm, but also takes some amount of his "general HP". Either arm's HP or the "general HP" hits 0 and the player dies. Pressing X simply makes you change stances thus if the player is shooting in your center mass you might get some hits on your arms making you tank more bullets instead of taking all of these bullets into your chest. IE, you shoot someone to chest with MX 2-3 times he dies. Shooting someone in chest 1 time and then spreading other hits to hands and you can still survive. Simply put the idea behind spamming X is just to spread the DMG all across your body, instead of one spot making you essentially have more HP. Thing is that by doing so enables easy headshots and given if you dont have helmet and the enemys weapon caliber is high enough it might lead you getting your head blown off.
Like with any there are pros and cons with this tactic. It does not work all the time and obviously if you are against 7.62, just dont do it, you will die. However it is relatively effective against lower calibers in CQC, even more so if you have a helmet to protect your head.
