Removing the grapple from some duel games might not be a bad idea since it seems that every duel server now is running without the mutator just to disable it, which also disables spraypaints and kick. The grapple does cause some problems on public servers as well, so I can see why people might want to disable it.

Its even less fun when ones in the air and the other tries to grapple-poke him
I very much beg to differ. I've fought a three way fight swinging over the pit in Immortal, where all of us were grappled to the underside of the walkway over the pit. It was kick ass.
If you don't like stuff like that, find a different server, but don't try to take away MY fun.
Now, a good idea would be to have any attack that hits the grappling hook claw to cause the claw to disengage, dropping the grappler (in some cases to his death).
May I ask why the grapple isn't a normal weapon? Just so you can use it and use a weapon at the same time? If that's not the reason I think it'd be easier to use if it were made to be a weapon (one that you can scroll to).
