Comments (that I can't be bothered to read 45 pages to see if they've been addressed):
Fixing weapon dropping shouldn't take longer than a minute if you have a competent scripter
Being equipped with a pistol, and going against a team equipped with automatic shotguns and op grenade launchers isn't very fun
Any idea what's causing people to lose weapons? That seems like half the talk in chat.

Yeah. The losing weapons things is making me a little ticked. But, it's a good reason to take HUD shots of pts and weps.

These can be faked quite easily

EDIT: 5 minutes after buying a weapon I think I know why weapons are being lost, and it took me another 15 seconds to think of a solution:
The save and load layout buttons are right next to each other, and when you have to load every time you die, it's quite easy to eventually misclick.
I suggest either:
a. Using a scripted solution to store weapons on death
b. Modify the save/load layout to save when buying a weapon, and load onPlayerTouch with the spawn

I recently discovered that all of my bought weapons in the store have been cleared, and that I have to rebuy them if I want them again. I currently have the default pistol and knife saved, reported this problem to your admins Joffrey and Tenshi, and told them that I had lost 1910 points worth of weapons along with a screenshot of the weapons.

The admins decide to say I have not earned those weapons, and that they cannot believe me. I wanted to know if you could get them to refund me because I'm very frustrated that all of my hard work is gone.

Thanks,
Gypsum

Gypsum if you are going to post in this topic asking for points, I suggest you not twist around what I said to you. I specifically told you that while you did give me a picture of those weapons, how am I supposed to know you earned all of them fairly? With the 'weapon dropping' thing that happened earlier yesterday I cannot simply give you the points for those weapons knowing that a good deal of people are carrying around items that they did not earn. Also on my mind is the number of people that figured out they could get the rpg without buying it by getting in the corner and crouch jumping into the rpg weapon spawn - which was fixed btw. I gave you 450 points, which given what I've just mentioned plus the overall lack of proof that you gave me, was a pretty nice sum of points. To see you come on here and complain more makes me think you are ungrateful for me helping you. I want you to think about just how many players do the exact same thing you did, complain about losing weapons and asking for points, and they actually DIDN'T earn those weapons fairly. You have to understand the view point of the administration.

Headcrab Zombie:
Yeah this looks like a pretty decent server, there's just too many issues, many of which take no effort at all to fix.
In fact, allow me to offer you a solution to one of them

If I were in this situation, I would implement this (or a similar solution), fix the weapon loss issue, and then reset everyone's weapons and score
