Re-Work Prop Ban List

[crab meat 3]

Description: Re-work the banned props list

Reasoning: As someone that builds a lot on the server, I've run into many cases where props are banned without any obvious reason for them to be banned. One of the clearest examples of this is with the plastic plates- There are several instances where different sizes of plates are banned, while other larger props (that would be easier to minge with, if that's the concern) are unbanned. It makes sense for props with absurd dimensions (like the 24x24 plates), but there's no reason that a 0.5 x 8 plate should be banned. This is only the tip of the iceberg, as the whole prop spawning menu is full of examples just like this (triangles, spheres, tubes, various CSS and HL2 props, rails, gears, any of the props with teeth). I'm sure there are some specific cases where these props need to be banned, but the majority of these banned props don't make sense. I know finding specific prop names to be removed from a prop ban list is insanely tedious work, so I'm happy to put one together myself if it helps this suggestion gain traction. Thanks for your consideration. 

 

(Also access to larger props keeps overall prop count down since we don't gotta splice together smaller props, wouldn't be bad to roll out with the prop count suggestion if it's approved)

I literally ran into this issue YESTERDAY lmao

it doesnt make sense to me why some of these props are unbanned, like the cylinders for example

it would make it alot easier to build things if we had the right props

I run into this problem all the time with trying to build round objects, with most round(circular) props being blacklisted.

I mostly just want that 1x1 metal tube back which was perfect for gun store builds.

I understand banning destructables and overly large props.
But there's SO MANY good props out there jsut in general. 
So many beds, couches, unique items - etc

I always try to build my psychology office and it's a shame it's always so limited.

+1 Most my bases were built years ago with old prop list, unable to use them via ADV dupe due to the current banned prop list

I rarely build anymore because of all the props that are banned. All my dupes got ruined by the prop bans it would be nice to have access to more props.

This would make building bases much more simple. Most of my dupes don't even work because they have banned props in them.

+1 almost EVERY css prop is banned and i get some of them because of them being overly large but theres fun ones like cars and actual beds that are banned with the css props and it would be nice to build with them since mostly everyone has css textures

This suggestion is just far too vague, feel free to request a handful of props to be re-whitelisted in separate suggestion posts, that was I can more easily explain to you why they are on the blacklist (IE: gears and 360 props being able to crash the server), or in the event that they're incorrectly in the blacklist, I will happily whitelist them :D.
