misc. bugging – glitching– exploiting ... allowed ?

since there still seems to be some ignorance and confusion amongst admins, with regards to certain bugging, glitching and exploits, i’ll post examples of a few of these, which i may have performed in simple fra in the past

they're nothing special, mostly basic beginner noob moves, 2002 style

unless any admins say in this thread, that some of these moves are forbidden and ban reason, i might continue to do them in the future in simple fra. if admins then “catch” me ingame doing these and ban me, i can then refer to this thread and show that no admins protested against them, and that all the bugging, glitching and exploits from this video therefore should be considered permitted

so, here’s your chance people .... are all the following 100 % allowed in simple servers ?

00:00    using big nametag fonts
00:12    using wide field of view
00:42    the hangar window exploit has been modded away for all hangars in simple fra, except the midway one, so bullets, nades, etc. can pass from the inside and out, but not the other way, so one is unhittable there, but can damage enemies
00:56    several other materials in various maps, besides the hangar window, also allow weapons to pass one way, but not the other. i won't list them all here, but some of them are : the hangar staircase, some carrier stairways, the church balcony, the windmill lower wall.
02:36    throwing nades under a fence
02:46    involuntary glitching through roof, caused by splash damage from tank / artillery shell   
02:54    one of the infantry spawns in omaha will result in an involuntary spawn inside the bunker wall, if the spawnpoint is blocked by another player. it happens very often. the involuntarily glitched player is unhittable there if he doesnt move, but can hit and damage other players
02:59     in c5 in berlin, there's a poorly designed pathway, where players often unintetionally half-glitch when they pass through. if one prones there, it becomes a full glitch
03:26     glitching through kharkov windows. can also be done in kursk
03:39     jumping through the barn hole
03:46     entering vehicle from height without parachute by holding enter vehicle key
04:04     no damage from hitting hangar or sandbags
04:29     avoiding fall damage by pressing against walls
04:47     climbing a normally unclimbable slope by following a specific path
04:57     picking up a kit that's on the other side of a wall / fence
05:06     hiding in the narrow space behind one of the berlin closets
05:10     deliberately using the nametags-visible-through-objects-bug to spot / locate enemies
05:39     proning up and down stairways
05:49     shooting enemies through small holes and cracks, and being almost unhittable there
06:18     deliberately passing through out of bounds areas

Re: misc. bugging – glitching– exploiting ... allowed ?

I am by no means an authority here. I will however comment on a personal belief, not just for BF42, but for life. Character. Integrity.
The day I need to use ANY glitch or exploit, I personally believe I better take a break. Justifying any of them, for any reason, seems like a compromise of character strength. I cannot find personal pride in being a weenie for any reason. I will take my losses as they come, as well as my defeats. Almost all of your mentions I don't think of as cheats or hacks but the thread is a GOOD one to get confirmation to, from the true folks who know.
Again, this is ONLY my opinion and belief. Nice job on the question. Tips the hat.

...

In Kursk, when you shoot with a Tank from the other flag into the Sidedoor, left of the Sawmill, the shell disappears in the ground, no harm.

Just when you shoot at the beginning of the door it regs. From the middle of the room to the end, it disappears. (I saw that with T34).

Not a hack, so yeah - allowed.  Similar to players obtaining ammo/med from beyond walls, etc.
If not mistaken, the proximity radius can be modified to prevent it, but think of the inherent
bitching which would follow when a player can't hop in a vehicle from it's usual distance.

You can make the heal/ammo resupply radius smaller server side I think.

1st thing, Hi gio long time no see!. 2nd What are you even trying to prove? without a patch anybody can still and still will bug if they really want to. Kicks/Bans dont always discourage bugging just btw (:
