Its up to the ET hosting. They follow most of the same guidelines but it is there interpretation of how it should be enforced is what I think you are questioning. About Anubis hosting with appripers. It is up to him what weapon he hosts with it doesn't matter if trials can use it or not. Trials are now kicked from events by the server if they go into observer mode now I believe. A trial can upgrade if they don't want to be kicked by observer mode.
