Remove Gravelpit from rotation?

[baw]

I suggest removing Gravelpit until Valve releases an update to plug the hole in the map allow players to fall underneath it.

Why? Just kick/ban whoever is doing that and people who still want to play on this server will stop using this exploit, as simple as that.

I second the kick/ban. we can remove some stupid players. Ive reported two already, will do it again when i see it.

[paceman]

There are so few official maps now, I would hate to see one of the best pulled out of rotation. Kick/Ban the exploiters.

[BigTwinky]

I kinda agree with the kick/ban. If we remove the map, regulars may start to get annoyed at the little rotation we have going.

Just keep on reporting them. If an admin is not online, take a screenshot, get their Steam ID, and post it up in the Report a Jerk section so that we can take action after the fact.

[baw]

I agree too. But admins are not on 24/7.

[BigTwinky]

This is the same for all games that have been run at Cain's. While there are mic spammers, racists, exploiters and so on in every game, I think pulling the map would be to the detriment (sp) to the entire community 100% of the time, while the exploiters are there for the map or just the round.

Thats why screenies and steam ids will help get the problem solved. Granted, its an after the fact thing, and in today's world we all want instant everything. In this case, just like fast food, faster service is not always better.

Wow, I so sidetracked myself lol

I support the kick/ban idea. It's true there could be situations where no admins are online, and that would spoil that round, pretty much. However, this is basically the easiest expoit to catch with a screenshot. This is posted elsewhere, but I'll provide the info again to (hopefully) helpful:

1) Drop to spectator (hit escape, click the TV), click the mouse until you're spectating them while they're under ground
2) Take a screenshot (hit F5)
3) Open the console (hit ~, if nothing happens hit escape and go to keyboard under settings and click 'advanced' and then enable the developer console)
4) Type "status" fine their name in the list of online players, then highlight that whole line and hit ctrl+c to copy.
5) Alt+tab and report, paste the steamID line and screenshot. The screenshot is located in ../program files/steam/steamapps/yoursteamID/team fortress 2/tf/screenshots

Alternatively, you can get a screenshot of the deathcam when their sentry kills you - just make sure the "you were killed by the sentry gun of ___" is in the screenshot. However, if there is more than one person down there, you might have to keep doing it to get killed by all the sentries.

Hopefully steam will fix this quickly.

[(DSP)-Bar]

That is pure asshatting at its best. But I think we can make an exception for you. :D

I agree. :)

[mapes]

Umm I hope I'm not being to forward but, it is the only game I play. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't abuse the power

[Jeffro]

lol looks like i started something

[RuThLeSsKiLLa]

BTW: i also notice that the time limit on the maps is 1hr. it think thats too long, i suggest to reduce it to 45min max.

[Evil Tony]

NOOO Don't remove it, I like it.

Don't remove it because Evil_T0NY says not to remove it!!

[Jeffro]

an hour is a lil much. 30-40 minutes at best in my opinion. put a full map rotation also. :P

[BigTwinky]

I've played on other servers while waiting for my spot at cain's that have custom maps and some of these are pretty cool.

I'm also getting used to the instant respawn hehe.

Update:
Supposedly the update that came down from Valve yesterday (11/20) fixed the "getting under the map" bug on Gravel Pit. Can anyone confirm if it is still being done or if it is truly fixed?

Looks like it's really fixed... At least I couldn't reproduce it or get myself stuck at that place :D

I'm also no longer falling through the floor when i die, which I tend to do quite often.
