Okay so. I talked to the Creator of Beep-Man, it's counted as Exploiting now as it's not intentional
It was unintentional YEARS ago, and as they updated they declared it an official easter egg.
Unless it's written in specific in the rules that it's not allowed whilist the creator themselves said It's declared OFFICIAL, then I see no problems with using it.
Besides, I think a Mini-Sentry for him is a nice addition. Only exception might be not to build dispensers as him since they have 0 value with the exception of teleporters.
I mean sure, if the community doesn't want it(?), either make a vote to forbid that use or keep it as it is now.
Up until now there was this misunderstanding that it was not allowed because people lacked an official word from the author whether it's allowed or not. But looking at the image above I guess it's plenty.
Since that was never a problem, Koishi/93sHADoW never had a reason to update the post to mention that and their intentions to make it official. Now that I told them about the situation and confusion around the community regarding the usage of the buildings as BeepMan, they decided to update the post to make it clear for everyone.
@UberMedicFully You've shown me an image of a conversation with them 10 months ago saying it was unintentional. They admitted it was unintentional but remained as an easter egg for the players to use on their leisure. So... just make a vote then? A Mini-Sentry is not a game changer. There shouldn't any pent up aggression towards this mechanic.
Look, normally I'd understand forbidding this if it was a pretty strong Hale, but how many kills does the sentry even get? Almost nothing! It gets popped like a balloon and doesn't even threat the enemy team when a Mini-Sentry that does 7-11 damage hits them.
I believe it should be a last line of defense for the hale. The hale doesn't even stun when he rages, only "lags" the players. you have a gentlespy who's headshot does 1000+dmg insta-kills any HP target even with lucky sandwich and suddenly a mini sentry is a problem? I don't really get it.
