    Firstly, the ban was issued for using the vsh_twinfalls exploit.

    You meant to say "exploit". Using a map error which makes you untouchable by Hale. Common sense tells that it's technically "cheating". Now the problem here is that it was obviously a map bug and if you read into our <a class="postlink-local" href="http://www.lethal-zone.eu/tf2/vsh-map-bugs-glitches-errors-thread-t10210.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">tf2/vsh-map-bugs-glitches-errors-thread-t10210.html</a> topic you would see it's an unintended bug which was not meant to be used in the first place. Another problem is that by that stunt you showed it to a bunch of idiots who followed your example afterwards eventhough many players said it's bannable. Luckily only one fell for this mistake, or least doing it in the presence of an admin. No telling who of those players who saw you will use this exploit when there are no admins present.

    We had this problem with arena_dropdown and eventually the frequent admins got tired of begging players to stop using it and they kept using it when there were no admins present, so we decided enough is enough and we wont tolerate exploiting anymore. Players should have enough common sense to know if they're untouchable in a spot, practically invulnerable till they remain there is cheating or more commonly known as "exploiting".

    Now of course I know you're a regular and I've seen you on for some time so I dont even know what posessed you to do that exploit. I banned another friend of mine for it one time for using that exploit and he knew darn well about the consequences. Was a real disappointment.

    Not sure what to do with you... decrease ban time? Unban? Not do anything?

    it's even in the rules so don't see why anybody would need a warning :roll:

    It's your ban, and seeing as the evidence is pretty clear you won't have troubles with either keeping the ban as well as lowering it I'd say. :)
    All narrows down to how much of a "everyone gets a second chance" or "you had your chance, stupid" person you are. :p

    Edit: Your ban == you issued the ban

    Ok, taking in consideration that you're a regular and you "didnt know it's bannable" I'll lower your ban to only 3 days. But the other guy's ban remains 1 week cause he already saw the consequences and saw the warnings as well. And I'll say to you what I said to my friend at the time he was caught... I am severly disappointed in you... do not do it again.

    Cracx, use your brain. Do you really thing using a glitch/exploit would be allowed?

    I am not much of a fan of people who think that they're invulnerable, just because they haven't been warned.

    I request a close on this topic cause he awknowledged the reason, explanation and the extra headwash he got from me on Steam. Nothing left to discuss.
