    Suggestion: Get rid of the buffer kit and refund everyone who purchased it a coupon code Equilivant its value.

    Reason: Buffer is just too Op. I see builders leave and rage everyday becuase of buffer. Don't give me a "running the server cost a lot of money" argument, becuase there are plenty of other kits to chose from. SG kits were meant to supplement skill, not replace it.

    Any Other Information: N/A

    +1 There are many kits, and some aren't being used at all due to stronger ones. But is it possible to remove buffer from people without a huge riot? o_O

    Yes, in the suggestion I said they'd refund people who have the kit with an equivalent coupon code.

    You're making the server seem like a for-profit business, which it isn't.

    I'd like to see someone who doesn't use/buffer to be opposed to this suggestion.

    I own no kits and rarely play sg, however, I oppose any suggestion that removes donation features in return for a refund. I have spent a lot of money on donations and think this would be the beginning of all features being removed.
    This time buffer, next time my fly as it is op in my play here. Then what about water/pyro plus - are they not pretty op also. Oh, and next I am sure would be investigator/ext commands...etc...etc.
    Andrew spends a lot of time before making changes or adjusting features (normally) and in time this will be taken care of as well.
    If you can't beat them, join them. Simply buy the kit.

    Its different. Builders and other players rarely notice it, nor does it prevent them from making money, nor care about it. Now notice the person who insta kills you every round? That's unfair.

    I agree that Kuke made a good point, however, the server owner obviously disagrees with him or this would have been changed a long time ago. It is his server and I believe he knows best how to run his server.

    I personally think adding sg kits was Andrew's worst idea to date because of all the mayhem that's come out of it.

    But we're in too deep now and there's not a lot we can do about it anymore except gradually keep nerfing them into redundancy.

    -1 It's a bunch a potions that provide positive boosters to the player who uses them. Users who won't have the positive boosts will say it's not fair until it's literally an equal power distribution. If we're doing this, why not just take off the enchanted kits as well, it's pretty much the same thing.

    The problem I feel is that the first main thing is the sign SG is just there and everyone recognizes it so it's the main thing they see. Builders are attracted to is sg and they assume that if this average mini game is unfair, then the rest of the server would be just as bad. I would rather want builders to try find other options of profit.
    I also want you to realize the amount of coupons that would be spawned from a buffer refund might just cause more problems. I personally feel that whatever option is chosen there will still be problems.

    As a buffer user I really do not care. But I would prefer if it was removed over another nerf.

    However, saying this I do not think it will happen.
