Of course it shouldn't be banned outright, that's the path of the disinterested and incompetent.
Before I continue, note that I haven't logged any wallbugged times.
You'll understand, then, that the following is only your fault for being logically and ethically compromised.
"It basically just breaks routes on maps. It's also not entertaining to watch." - hkPatently false, care to defend this statement?
That's right, you can't, just as you cannot defend any of your prior lowest-common-denominator panderings.
https://ws.q3df.org/map/BardoK-Rody/This map is only possible in vq3 through use of this bug, and it is totally leet and legit to do so.
There are countless similar examples, and the maps which are 'broken' by the bug do nothing to negate the ones which require it.
"~10 maps vs ~10k maps" - cpuYour shit ability at finding routes means exactly what?
"Why is there even a poll on this?" - lithBecause accountability for a provably destructive and lazy action is easy to avoid if you can point to a poll where every idiot can have their spastic reactionary view represented without them being asked to defend it.
If you were fair, before banning it everywhere you'd seek to have at least one person supporting your position who can demonstrate that they know how it works and can prove that it's bad in all cases.
That at least would show whether or not you're minimally interested in the game you're administrating.
Instead, like every other time, you have a dozen super-serious-defrag-players whining about something they:
- can't describe the mechanic of,
- can't give even the rawest estimate of its effect,
- want banned in all cases because of a few specific abuses.
My opinion?
Mark the times where it is used, in a separate ranking or something, if you really can't figure it out by looking.
Even that isn't absolutely necessary, but you seem desperate.
Then once the whiners are silenced, teach mappers how to avoid it, or (imagine it, if you can)
use it constructively.
