Server Preference With or Without Grapple and PowerUps?

Do most people prefer to play on servers that have grapple enabled or disabled? I know there can be some good battles on the grapple, but many lamers on hte grapple too that just hide up high all day. Same with powerups, although there is no mutator yet for disabling powerups (at least not that I've found) I wonder if most people prefer to play with powerups off, i think they do, but lets see.

I'm going to assume you mean Duel , anyway the only way to play without grapple is to play without the Chaos Mutator on. Then you don't get the kick , the spraypaint , the grapple ,or the tombstones.

where's the no graple, don't care about the kick, yes powerups option?
I'm no graple fan, the whole swinging idea just doesn't appeal to me.
The Beamer from Real Tournament was fine for me: all it did was either atract or propel you to/away from the point you were aiming at. Now only if it used a form of rechargeble ammo so you couldn't play Tarzan forever and it would be perfect for me

Yes I meant Duel, and No, i wasn't asking how to make a server, I wanted to know people's preferences. Ive been running my server 24 hours a day for 2 days and many people like it because I have the only grapple/Kick server, at the same time, they also agree that powerup removal would be great too. So I wanted to get more of a feel for how I should set my server up based on people's responses.
Also want to let other server admin's know that they need to also enable the Chaos mut to enable grapple and kick. I dont know if others dont run it because they dont want it or if they just dont realize that grapple and kick in the duel game is a mutator separate from the mod itself.

What happen to
No Grapple, Yes Kick, Yes Powerups
I think the grapples kind of interesting, but needs to be faster to be useful. But, like the translocator, it does spoil some game modes.

Ok, i've managed to find an old ut2k3 mutator for No powerups that works with Chaos. I've also found a 2k4 mutator that allows you to change the value of health/shield packs.
Would it be preferred to have Double Damage still but make health and shields worth less? or Better to remove all ?
