Honestly; I can see all arguments in regards to basing etc with overpowered weapons, yes it makes it unfair for players, especially with unreleased and unbalanced guns - stuff like lightsabre are pretty irrelevant because they're not exactly hard to kill x.x
Staff turnover on Era is very high, this is because the job because extremely repetitive and boring and very stressful at times, if we're not able to have any fun beyond the normal of players, you may as well be a player and be without the stress and aggro of players begging constantly and wanting this and wanting that.
End of the day, you're merely complaining for the sake of complaining, can't say i've ever heard people complain about me pking with unreleased things, they usually take it as a challenge to kill and have some fun.
Things wont change in regards to weapons and admins, so you may aswell give up in that respect. If you want robot staff who give you default answers to everything, pretty sure we can do that, we'll make our services to you as boring as possible.
