From the Division Leaders and Council:

There is a glitch on 2Fort involving the Pyro's flare gun. Behind the metal which protects the snipers on their respective battlements, a Pyro at point blank range, at an angle, can stick his flares into the metal. They will not bust and remain whole. You can see the flares continue to burn from the other side on the opposite battlements. Too many of these flares causes taxing on the server's resources and to get rid of them, the map must be restarted.

For anyone caught attempting or doing this exploit, there will be ONE server-wide warning, then the next person caught doing it will receive a GLOBAL BAN. If they are in eGO, then they will also be removed from here as well.

Edit: I've heard this may be an issue on other maps as well, therefore Drunken Sailor has applied this rule to ALL eGO servers.

Here is what it looks like:

Whoa thats pretty cool. Don't have to worry about me, I won't even think about doing that exploit, because I wanna stay in this clan.
 
It's pretty much possible anywhere, from what I've seen...not just limited to 2fort. I've also found that having a number of them on-screen will also drop my FPS significantly. So, keep an eye out for it.
 
one question...y would u even want to do that on purpose...lol. its pointless, and just makes the game lag. ahhaha.
 
bleh

I would like to add: Please do not insult the intelligence of other players or the admins by trying to glitch in more out of the way places like the basement resupply room. I believe Drunken Sailor caught someone trying that yesterday.
 
Does this exploit ban apply for all maps? Or is it just for 2Fort exploiters?
 
If you guys catch anyone doing it on any eGO TF2 servers, it dont matter if you dont see them do it. If you see them sticking in the wall then you issue a god chat warning, for you noob admins thats open up all chat and use @@@ next person caught shooting flares into the wall glitching will be perm banned.

Then you will have to keep an eye out for who does it, ban on sight when you see them do it and post a request ban so that we can do a global ban for the idiots. Unfortunately I banned an e 5 minutes AFTER I issued the warning. He wont be coming back......ever.

Everyone has been warned, this could possibly crash a server. There will be zero tolerance for this.
 
This is detrimental becuase it produces lag... REDUCING POSITIVE PLAY TIME for anyone and everyone on the current server...

clown hackers are the kinda people that will do this all day log in pubs just to try and clear servers becuase of the lag....

Almost annoying as getting poisoned by a medic right in front of your own respawn in tfc 1... heh
 
Ya i saw this on the 2fort server. It made me lag alot. They are very anoying.
 
Understood, these can also be applied to the towel racks in spawn. I've already banned someone for it.
