Approved HighFive taunt glitch on TRADE | US server

[MiniTrukr]

There is a glitch on the TRADE | US server that allows players from one team to "pull" players from the opposing team in to their spawn, causing lots of friendlying and lots of freekilling.

The glitch is done by backing up to the wall that seperates both spawns. With your back facing the window, you activate your high five taunt. A player that is on the opposing team that is facing the window can high five you, and you effectively "pull" them through to your spawn, with them landing slightly in front of you.

Is this a known glitch with the map? Any plans on fixing it?

I tried to reproduce it and screenshot it, but it happens quickly. Hopefully this gives you some idea of how it works.

It's not only TRADE | US

I see. It's a Valve problem, huh? Lame. Nothing like dropping in on a game with a sentry directly behind you annihilating everything in sight and having everyone go "WE R HAVING FUN FAGIT LEAVE IF U DONT LIKE IT"

Just for the record, friendlying is not against the rules on trade.

This used to be an issue on trade ny, although it usually never work because the enemy team kills them.

Neither is free killing

Freekilling? Is that even a thing on Trade?

If a bunch of people are friendlying and someone kills them sometimes they call it freekilling

Ah, that's silly.

I would argue that having someone glitch you in to the other teams spawn and putting up a sentry is certainly free killing. But I guess trade is a fuck all. Mic spam must be allowed as well. I mean, its just a trade server after all, right?

Also, I looked at the rules list and it doesn't seem to distinguish the trade server rules from any other server. Only other rules I see are for jailbreak. Perhaps that should be updated so that everyone is clear, because clearly there are some unspoken differences between trade and other servers.

Mic spam isn't allow anywhere only in idle where it's more lenient for mic spam.

Exploiting glitches or using hacks is though.
