First, if it is all about results rather then intent then just start with that point next time, and leave me with the ban. I accept what I accidentally caused. I just figured that intent mattered at least to some degree based off of the rules and other ban appeals that I had read. If it does not matter then it would be useful to start with that point to save time.
If the post you are talking about is the one in the changelog, then the exploit is not fully fixed. If you can still spawn in any LFS vehicles with the dupe tool, even if it is only one, then the exploit still stands. I would test this (without causing a crash) but cannot because I am still banned.
Also, even if dupe is restricted to member and above, I have still seen and heard of many members abusing (and getting banned) before, so it would not fully protect from the exploit.
Lastly, I was being careful with the dupe tool. I had built the vehicle in question on the server, and it caused no problems by itself. I had no reason to believe that duplicating a 2 component dupe would cause any harm to the server (even though I was wrong). If I am supposed to leave the server to test every dupe that I produce on the server, then dupe rules are dumb and could use some work. Also, I am not fully sure of how to run all of the addons on LFG or even where to find all of them, making testing dupes in singleplayer impossible.
