And at the same time ruining the fun for most people. Even for me, things got boring really fast if you could just wreck everything. Even though I don't really like what they're doing so much I understand why they had to. It's hard to please everyone but for future players I can see it being better for them. I understand why people are upset about it but we just need to move on imo. Enjoy the server for what it is, not what it could have been.
I agree, if they were to do something to change vip gear this would be the best option.
I feel like this is something that a lot of people forget about when donating. The way I think of it is you give them money to help keep the server up and running and you just get the gear as a reward. Honestly if they had a donate button where you could just donate and not get anything I would do that, I want to see the server grow so having gear better than regular gear means nothing to me. I'm sure other people feel differently though.
