Can we stop trying to fix the game and just let it turn itself into a shithole?

But really,

Personally, I'm against this because I actually like the function. And I've always hated the idea of something becoming an exploit just because "it's not being as intended" in my terms. I believe that as long as it's something that gives a huge disadvantage or breaking the game should be an exploit such as unreachable areas and whatnot. The harpoon is something that isnt really game breaking or unfair whatsoever. And besides, it's literally a high speed throwing knife with a reasonable distance that hits only 1 person. Let the damn thing stay as it is. We dont need to duct tape everything in the server

I second the hell out of this. No, it's not intended and it's probably annoying to get a poon in your ass through a brick wall, but the level of coordination that takes on the side of the attacker to actually exploit it like that is probably going to be higher than just left clicking down a hallway, and the satisfaction of pulling something that stupid off successfully gives a critical rush of excitement to the attacker that keeps them playing and keeps them innovating cooler and more entertaining ways to play the game.

It's easy to get into a stride with a gamemode as sophisticated as TTT and start treating it as a fully fledged game. Garry's Mod isn't an ordinary FPS like CS:S or CS:GO; it's stupid, it's broken, it's unoptimized, and it's meant to be played to have fun. People don't play this game because it's a good game, people play it because it has hundreds of quirks and charms in the form of glitches like these that adds an extra layer of gameplay to an otherwise really shit game. Looking at a weird and buggy T weapon or turning into a prop with properties you've never seen before keeps people like me coming back and thinking "What can I do with this?"

Now that's not to say you shouldn't fix broken things, getting fucked by a Locomotive shotgun in one shot and getting stuck outside of the map with no way to play the game isn't a fun experience. But when you remove every single little quirk in a game that's played because it's quirky and stupid, what do you have left? A washed up first person shooter with a pointshop.
