Video Evidence (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Um8o-JDACy8)
He used the ladders-exploit for several maps. In the end he pissed me off enough that i took the time to record him, found&added cheesy music, edited it then upload to youtube, while writing this topic. Instead of playing :S
I do not ask for a long ban, i just wish people could be more aware on how their actions have consequences. By literally skipping the first line of defense, by placing ladders in tin-air, you have cheapen the battle for the defenders. Fair-play used to mean something..
There is one part in my evidence, where he showed intent on exploiting the ladder-through walls bug, which i have gathered is bannable (atleast ive seen people be banned for it).
The two other parts are a bit more vague in the rules, when i asked on IRC, i got a mixed answer. If its allowed to connect ladders in the air to skip the first walls/gate, and by that the first line of defense..Then surely making a drop-ladder would be allowed too (ladder from attacker spawn -> flag, just high enough that no-body can destroy it, but you can jump down without losing health).

This guy fails badly. He should get banned just for being so bad at exploiting.

This is different from the construction site exploiting, for the simple reason that ladders can be destroyed.
The ladder trough gate "exploit" is fine, if the defending team does not want to defend gate, it's their decision. If they defend, they hit the ladders 3 times and are fine.
The ladder-laddering is not that bad, as it's perfectly possible to get the same result with 1 well placed ladder (atleast on that map, that can not be reached by defenders except when jumping down that is)

Just to clarify;
1. we are allowed to ladder-ladder on battle/siege?
2. we are allowed to ladder-through gate/wall?
3. What about ladders-over-gate? You can still destroy them, so should be fine?
It just goes against my common sense, it is cheap bug usage and should be prohibited.
Done being mad, locked.
