    I think that this is an appropriate time to simply say:

    /thread.

    Maybe you should read this part again.

    Yes because grenade jumping as Demoman will fix the problem for 7/8 snipers on a team, and most of the time in TF2 Orange you don't communicate with your team as a whole so you can't adapt to the 7/8 snipers shooting at you all the time.

    Start limiting classes and people start leaving the whole ordeal.

    Don't forget to bring the enforcer with you.
    That is a recipe for disaster for snipers.

    No to this suggestion,
    It's players choice to play whatever class they want + this is a sniper map mostly.
    I agree with @Pruu@Pruu it will make most of the Server population leave.

    Pruu is exactly saying what "don't get hit" means.

    Orange is practically an empty, wide-open map, which means that it is sniper heaven. There are classes to counter that, and limiting snipers wouldn't be the best choice. As a server, you want users, and it is difficult to gain users when you limit what they can do. Don't like the snipers? Harass them as spy. Don't like the snipers? Sticky jump to them. Don't like the snipers? Rocket jump. (insert repeated phrase here) go bonk scout.

    As a, horrible sniper myself, and I also don't play this map, but I'm going to have to agree with the no-gang here
    People would start whining when their freedumbs are taken away, and I think a whole lot would leave if there's a limit.

    How to avoid snipers on orange.
    1) Don't play on that map, it's bad.

    To be honest, considering it's Orange, you may aswell just Limit both Sniper and Spy, because the only people who're playing sniper are either tryhards or more likely, Gibus Pyrovision newbies, if you limit Sniper, you'll probably need limit the other because they'll just swap to that. And being someone who only played Orange x3 for about 7 rounds before quitting forever out of spite for how horrible it is, I'd prefer the enemy team to consist of 7 snipers who can't aim for toss/use the machina, as opposed to them all spawn killing as Engineer or building 10 mini-sentries, since you can actually enter the opposing teams spawn and build there, so if you ever loved spawncamping, you'll love orange.

    Unless we updated the map, that is. Who knows, I don't so why ever my opinion matters on a map I don't play, nor intend to is a little suspect.

    Regardless, I digress. More realistically due to the fact everyone seems to have committed to the "Git gud, and deal with it" "argument", it's probably just better to give everyone permanent crits and be done with the whole thing since then everyone will be equal in the sense of being able to just insta kill someone from the other end of the map using little effort on their part, as opposed to someone using little effort on their part to kill someone on one end of the map and requiring a large amount of effort from the other to even get close.

    It is one of the most visited servers on fog right?
    So that does say something about this whole subject.

    Yes it is:

    Regarding the suggestion itself: I will not implement any Class limtis, as this map is MADE esepcially for Snipers (for practise or just screwing around).
