    I've played Kitbrawl since 2012 after being directed here by a friend. Throughout all this time Kitbrawl had been the best server for me. Great map, great kits, and most of all was NOT pay to win. It shut down once, was brought back up and didn't even meet a tenth of the playerbase it previously had and it shut down again with the admins promising to remake it better, eventhough I thought they had nailed it that map aswell.
    I waited months for Kitbrawl to be put back online and i understood the admins had priorities but it became beyond the joke and I gave up. Only today did I think to try to see if the server was on again (for the first time since November-ish) and I was delighted to see the server exploding bigger than I had ever seen it before.
    However, there are flaws. Many flaws.
    I played Kitbrawl to improve my PvP skill for other servers as I don't usually play MCWAR or whatever else there is on this network (it's just not appealing okay!).
    The server is still unmoderated and hacker infested.
    The server now has gun kits as an option... I'm not sure exactly how to access this feature BUT IT IS A TERRIBLE IDEA AND SHOULD NOT BE IMPLEMENTED.
    And the server is laggier than ever. I mean it lagged back in 2012, was improved a little in 2014 but this is the worst I have ever seen it. Ever.

    It can be argued that it is successful now with these changes as its playerbase is much larger however you have had major success with it before with a basic kit server... why has this happened? You will not be attracting new players but only players from mcwar if you implement the gun kits which again I reiterate is a terrible idea.

    It has become pay to win the donor/credit-requiring kits and because of it's popularity the chat is now exploding with things like "LEGENDARY" and "DOUBLE KILL" which should be removed.

    Just my thoughts from an experienced player. Please don't warn players who may stumble across this thread in several months for grave digging as it is a thread that should have ideas/comments/thoughts posted on it anytime.

    Thanks in advance.

    I made a rant similar to this one except it was regarding my stats. I know kinda of what you're feeling :/ . I lost 25,000 kills during the continuous server resets. And that the fact of that they were planning to add stats NOW angered me (now that I see it, they were pretty right on that...). I was completely impatient on KitPvP being brought back up as well, but now some restarts are being done, and there were some minor changes and bug fixes, it's just that the community hasn't noticed that much, not even I. Such as horses not being able to be damaged, which made it EXTREMELY more balanced to the other kits.

    I tried out the guns server in Beta Testing, it was pretty cool to me, it's NOT AT ALL like some sort of WarZ practice server. There's no such thing as 'comboing' there (probably will use the same code to make DayZ). It hasn't been fully released yet, I would say you should wait and test it out yourself. And just if you were confused, it's a whole new different side-server, it's not part of the same arena. It's in a different arena, you get to chose where you fight, in the regular arena or in the Guns Arena. That's why there's a compass to warp to the "Guns World".

    I recently won MVP and I can tell you KitPvP is NO WHERE close to pay to win. First of all Indian is broken, and in the Beta Testing when it was working it's basically like someone with a bow that you don't need to draw back. The axe just shoots out arrows. Second of all Tank is balanced, it's not at all OP. You may think something along the lines of "Full Diamond with a diamond sword?! That's impossible to beat!" But in truth Tank is the slowest kit in KitPvP, yes it's powerful, but not over-powered. There can easily be fast kits or ranged kits that could beat Tank.

    I don't agree with the fact that Legendary and Double Kill are spamming the chat, I'll first state why, and also I'll go on your side after that. The fact that there are more people, potentially means that there are more people to shut you down. Don't expect all the people on the server to be complete noobs. There's hardly any legendaries and I myself have found out that it's much more harder to get legendary (not hard, but harder). Also, if it bothered you that much, there could be a command that disables them, or simply making it less popping out and more of something that's informational. So make the announcements shorter.

    About the bugs, in my opinion, LOTS of them have been fixed. You just have to stick out and report them, I have no idea if you've done that, but that's all I can say. And like I said, it's just that the community hasn't noticed. I personally don't see any really huge glitches at the moment...

    There have been lots of threads complaining about the server not having staff, and there also have been answers. Well I'll answer to this, I have no idea what time zone you are in, but for me staff are on at least 12 hours on KitPvP. Also there are many ways to help out the staff and report for yourself, I've made a guide on that. Also, the staff have been trying to implement KitPvP Staff, at the moment there is no such rank. But I can promise you once it's done there will be lots of helpful people willing for the job. There are lots of hackers on KitPvP, but some people don't notice those people who stay up at night trying to catch those hackers (mostly on Slack). Also the staff don't have much time to spend on KitPvP, since there is no specific rank for KitPvP Moderators the moderators are busy with their servers that they have to moderate. Also JMods CANNOT ban people. Also the Moderators have to record the hackers, then ban them. This can be a lengthy process and I already know some staff members who have difficulty recording and are on laggy computers. You should sympathize for them ._. .

    It hasn't been lagging at all for me, that could possibly be yours, lots of people complain about lag but I don't really see any to be honest, it only lags when there are more than around 40 people. You can see your ping just to make sure but not really any lag. But there is soup lag which almost everyone knows about, when you soup there are delays of when you can hit the other person. This is a known problem to the staff and when they completely convert their hacker-catching-plugin to 'KNoHax', they are hoping that will be fixed.

    I've put all my comments on this, I would just like to inform you that this was no offense to you, and if you disagree with any of these I don't mind to hear it.

    literally the most one sided reply to any forum post, ever.
