But throwing harpoons through walls is one of the more cheeky things that you can do, and should be considered an exploit.

Of course there’s always the alternative of the C4, but that takes a timer and beeps to alert the victim. I say don’t give the camper the out, the harpoon through the wall is fine.

So instead of letting people utilize a legitimate, though unliked playstyle, we take advantage of the harpoon's bad coding and get a ridiculous kill?

IMO the Ts have enough tools at their disposal without the harpoon to kill/wound/send into panic the innocents.

Well it’s not like it’s just instant kill like a knife. The harpoon still requires some skill and cunning. I’ll admit there’s lots of opportunities for cheap and stupid kills, like through t room glass, but to weed out most situations with it it would require knowing where they’re at, which isn’t always an easy thing to do, and hitting a target that knows it’s being hunted is usually a task in itself. It’s arguable that it’s a disliked yet valid strategy to use the harpoon through walls. I know it’s no an intentional mechanic, but it could be argued by the same principal. 
As far as T weapons in a general speak go I think some of the things that should be focused on are things that don’t require half what the harpoon does, like the knife.

I'd argue that it's a disliked and invalid strategy, seeing as the mechanic of throwing the harpoon through the wall is not intentional, and abusing it for cheap kills is therefore an exploit.

I'm not saying remove the harpoon, I think it's a good weapon. What I don't think is good is the harpoon being able to come through walls like the Kool-Aid Man.

It is one of the many things you have to worry about in the game. You can't camp a room in one spot, because you could get pooned. You can't doorspam because you get pooned. My favorite thing was baiting people to throw it to me from within the T room and yeeting it right back. While it wasn't intended, its is an enjoyable addition. Don't make it an exploit and definitely don't remove it. Stop trying to take the fun out of this fucking gamemode. I don't play g-mod to compete or play equal, I play to FUCK AROUND. If you don't like getting killed through walls, don't stand in one place or don't be near walls.
