So because other people can do it, it's not an exploit.

By that definition every exploit isn't an exploit.

Exploit is the use of a bug or design flaw including glitches, rates, hit boxes, or speed, etc. by a player to their advantage in a manner not intended by the game's designers.


However it has been stated that on EMU it is not an exploit to do so. Even the idea to do so came from Holocaust hiding behind the zone line (Tibberz etc) healing/nuking.

If you are asking me if it is an exploit and should be fixed then yes i will agree.

But i am not going to rag on a guildmate that is using the exact same tactics as people that are trying to PVP him.

I believe you that Holocaust did this first because I know one of them was whining about being banned from K&B for nuking people from behind zonelines. Add to that the screenshot of holo guild chat where someone was explaining how to exploit behind zonelines. I just don't agree that two wrongs makes a right.

This argument would only work if holo were using these tactics at the time. From the screenshots that doesn't seem to be the case. If you have to go behind a zoneline to fight someone else who's already there, that's one thing, but doing it so you can avoid getting killed and rez more easily is so hilariously illegitimate that I don't know how you can continue to claim any moral authority over holocaust. If you agree that it's an exploit, just stop doing it.
