K isn't being hypocritical, he is taking the position that "anything goes". I'm saying "whatever the devs say is bad is banned". Others however are standing upon a platform of espousing "anything goes" but then slipping in their own exceptions as they see fit. That leads to being inconsistent which in turns makes someone look hypocritical.

You don't *really* ban everything on the bug list in your games, do you (is it even possible)?

Sure I do.
It's been like that for along time and listed in Velusion's game FAQs/Rules thread linked on every game. There really aren't that many actual *bugs* that can be exploited, so no one really notices or cares. There are also a select few exploits that can't be reasonably enforced so those are ignored - but not condoned. And it's not like I kick people off for using an exploit, I just give a warning, point to the first post in the game thread and have never had a problem after that.

Also, you ban some stuff that isn't on the bug list. You do this according to some standard you have, which is acceptable (& I enjoy playing in your games, and always abide by house rules).

Hey I'm all for house rules that effect specific games (though I incorporate individual game rules into mods so you can't not abide by them
). However "exploits" are never allowed in any the games I start.

If someone else's standard is "anything goes except for MoD, because it alone among bugs uniquely breaks the combat rout system" why is that hypocritical?

That standard isn't hypocritical, but is that person prepared to keep that promise that "anything goes" no matter what game-breaking bug is discovered next month? If not.. then yea, it's hypocritical.
