Why doe? Why would you get rid of a very good QoL change?
Not interested in repeating the same thing over and over.
It was an exploit that went unpatched by Mythic on live. We figured out how to fix it. Done and done.
Some exploits are good. Things like rocket jumping, circle jumping, bunny hopping were all exploits once.
Fixing something just for the sake of fixing it, eh.
This has got to be the dumbest statement I've heard in regards to development.
Fixing something for the sake of fixing something. Way to describe essentially what we've been doing here for the past 5 years. No one has to fix anything and you can live with broken crap. Or we can fix things for the sake of fixing them, and you get to roll with the fixes you don't like, along with the ones you do.
There's lots of QoL addons that did terribly unfair things. Some of them were outright broken on RoR, so we fixed them to prevent pretty major exploits. This is one of them, although it wasn't the worst of the bunch that we broke. It was still giving a massive advantage to people that have it over people that don't. Those are the sorts of things that we've consistently chipped away at. This latest bit should come as absolutely no surprise.
