I know I will get a warning for not being a witness or anything, but I will say it anyway. Stake spammers ruin siege. They definitely do. Mostly they will throw around a thousand of them. They spam them around so much that you don't even recognize what map you are playing on after a while. Also a lot of stake spammers use the very low tactic of instantly throwing stakes under your feet to lock you in place or stop a relentless charge. Most use them to jump over normally unreachable walls too. So in brief, I don't blame strudog one bit. Pepe must have deserved it (I saw how well he spams stakes myself earlier, which means I have a good idea of what happened).
I also know a ban thread is not the best place to drop this opinion of mine, but I will do that too: Throwable materials like stakes, siege shields and construction sites should be removed for good from siege. It is either that or we should have clear rules set in place. Spammers of these items like Pepe usually get away with a light verbal warning and they can get so cheeky that they end up opening ban threads for the same matter just like a spoiled kid. It is downright ridiculous.
