Without monkeys jumping over the counter, we'll just do what we always do; grapple one of the handful of people at the hop line and use that to get over. Just as easy to see coming and only slightly more of a time investment (2-3 seconds tops). If we're worried about them hopping over things, why not just remove the feature if almost everyone doesn't like how we can grief with it? We have other easy methods to grief, we don't really need them to hop over things to be fun.
If the community had a choice between:
+ Being able to spawn as a chimp with a translator and no table jumping
+ Late join/genetics with the ability to jump tables
...I'm positive we'd have a landslide vote towards it becoming a trait and removing the jump.
Some people pick chimp because they want the desk jump, but most people do it because monkeys sound funny, look cool, and they're wildly cute in their little people clothes. If translators are a big pain in the ass, make them spawn as genetically/surgically enhanced monkeys. NPC monkeys already speak English out loud without translators when they steal shit, it wouldn't be stretch for NT to hire some of the really clever ones to work for them and get paid in bananas.
