I dont think it is? For the same reason alting buildings is bannable.
this is a quote in another similar topic from riz
Didn't we have this discussion a while ago?
It wouldn't be bannable if it could be proven as we are of the opinion that when you shoot a tank that is on part of a building that the building takes damage too is just part of the game and not some random bug. warfs, refs and depots can all be driven on and it is just common sense that if a tank is sitting on a building but is getting shot to pieces that the building will take damage too. Yes it is lame to do with 1-2 tanks, but the majority of times people post complaining about it, they would have lost the warf even if they had not of alted onto it. Some people say it is unstoppable, other people say you shouldn't just let a tank drive onto it, and if ye do ye deserve to lose the building or ye deserve to have it blocked anyway.
A maphacker who only plays games with crates is also incredibly difficult, nigh on impossible, to prove*. This does not stop us from declaring that maphacking is cheating. What really stops "alting" from being recognised as bug abuse is the fact that it isn't even a bug.
Consider all of the other known bugs that can be abused. What differentiates "alting" from those is that had any further official patches been developed, we can safely assume these bugs would eventually have been removed.
*Please avoid finding yourselves in this scenario! - either make sure you fully trust your opponent or, at the very least, run XGS to be safe
heres another quote, but I'm not sure if "fixing planes" qualifies to fit the "alting" description...

I ment to say for the same reason alting buildings isnt bannable 
and yea i remember those discussions. But how do they know that when the game was made it was made with that in mind? i.e you are supposed to be able to do it?

I guess they don't KNOW, like in Knit's post he said that we can SAFELY assume the other glitches would have been removed, which is like mcv glitch, spy self glitch, etc. those don't even make any sense to have in game, but alting and fixing planes isn't illogical, so they can't dismiss it as readily.
I never considered alting a glitch, only considered it to be LAME, but I certainly DON'T consider FIXING planes lame AT ALL.

So, if repairing planes not bannable, time to use it.
Well, like I said in my initial post; I fix my planes a lot and quite consistently.
you can repair tanks its a repair depot whats it matter if its a plane or a tank.i see nothing at all wrong with it.
I agree completely, however, some people think it is a "bug" or a bannable offense.

If it was how you say then the plane would get a land/interact cursor when it's damaged and aimed at the service depot.
BTW I recall seeing a cheat report about it years ago.
I remember seeing a ss of a plane on service depot and a naval yard.

As far as I know fixing planes on depots whatever sort on land or on naval yards is bannable.
It doesn't seem to be intended that planes are fixable on naval yards. It's too overpowered to just fix planes like that, they heal themselves over time for a reason.
It must have been overlooked, luckily it doesn't cause an internal error like some other things that obviously were overlooked too.

To say it's overpowered isn't fair or accurate, that is like saying fixing tanks is overpowered.... also, it costs money, so why not?
Also, I would agree that fixing planes on a naval yard doesn't seem logical or intended, but as for on a depot......

Try getting a plane repaired just as you would get your tank repaired. Maybe that'll unconfuse you.I'm still confused how repairing your unit on your Repair Depot can even come close to be considered a bannable glitch.

FACT : it's easier to repair a plane on a naval yard then it is on a repair depot.....
FACT : it is not bannable along with several other "glitches"

Can you direct me to the source as to which you received the latter of the two facts?

1.) go to skirmish and alt the repair depot and alt the navy yard, see which takes on first click.
2.) after 8 years of s-t i have never witnessed this being banned for, only glitches i ever seen banned where MCV, changing color after opponent accepts, desos on bridge.
