    Suggestion: Buffer should be destroyed, and all buffer users have $30-$90 worth in Ecc Coupon vouchers.

    Reason: Lets face it. I myself am a Bfrpp user. I use Bfr every game. But lets face it Bfr has literally ruined SG, it isn't pvp anymore. It's 'who can hit who first'. Buffer can destroy a user in PF in just 2 shots. 1 if it's a criticle. That isn't pvp.

    Any Other Information
    : I know, this is just another 'Buffer Suggestion' but how many 'Buffer Suggestions' will it take before the people in power realizes that this NEEDS to change.

    As much as I'd like his to happen, it won't. Just look at how many players have purchased the buffer donation. If we were all refunded in the form of coupon codes, there would be 1. Way too many "free" donation features given away to replace the purchase of the people who bought the kit and 2. It would take a ton of time for Phys to refund each purchase.

    Look, SG is big part of ECC, it will take time and effort... yet it will be worth it.

    With no disrespect intended, if enough of us show Andrew, enough of us Bfr users, we will convince those in power that We don't want Buffer to continue to ruin our Sg Experience

    Yes it would take a lot of time to give everyone coupon codes but it would be worth it in the long run by gaining more players on the server and potentially more donators.

    Buffer ruined sg, go up and ask anyone why they don't sg anymore, 10% will say teams/outnumber, the other 90% will sayer buffer. SG got alot of builders to join ECC and now that SG is practically gone the amount of builders are going drastically down(along side the fact that they dont spawn in the tutorial and leave the server within 2 minutes). Removing JUST THE STRENGTH POT OR MAKNIG IT A STRENGTH I will fix sg for everyone and it can once again be popular. On the note that it is "too much work" the administrative team had multiple opportunities to fix buffer when not too many people had it, they chose to stick it out and it has ruined SG. Taking a few hours of giving coupon codes is worth saving the only mini game on ECC imo.

    So giving people $90 to replace a single kit that they chose to buy wouldn't be considered free features? Lol

    I'm with you all. Buffer did ruin sg, but at this point nothing can, and will be done about it other than possibly a few slight changes to the kit. Sorry, but that's life. You just need to accept it and move on.

    Just look at it from Phys' point of view. If she removes/modifies the kit, she will have numerous users complaining. If she doesn't, she will also have numerous users complaining. I had a brief discussion with her and a few other staff members about buffer a while ago, and nothing can be done about removing the kit, but there is a possibility that it could be nerfed slightly. Instead of complaining about the kit, why don't you give her ideas that could nerf the kit slightly without making it useless.

    I have already suggested changing the strength potion from strength 2 to strength 1 (which would solve the issue for everyone) but no action was taken upon it, so I suggest you try giving her a good idea if this means so much to you.

    Why can't you just look at their feedback in other suggestions?

    EDIT: there is no feedback

    Thats exactly my point. They don't seem interested in changing anything with SG to improve the experience. Why? Well... I don't really know to be quite honest.

    If the owners gave a care about the players and the community buffer would have gone a while ago.

    I've seen owners take absolute pains to provide for their community. Yes, it would take a ton of time. People do crazy things out of love ya know. Don't know if I'm feelin' the love.

    Money. The world revolves around money.

    You know what could be done? Get rid of the dang feature and refund people half the money even. Spending money on a Minecraft server is like buying food; it doesn't last forever. If people get pissed off and leave? I wouldn't give a crap. Why? Because, they'll just open up the slots for more players to come.
