I don't know what all the fuss is about. I didn't suddenly turn into an unstoppable killing machine. Opponents didn't run in fear as I fired thorns at them. I got my ass kicked in PvP just as much as I normally would. And you can't say it's because I'm not skilled enough. You can't claim this gun is OP and then claim I'm not skilled enough to use it properly. If that's the case than this gun isn't OP. My understanding of what over powered means is that some piece of gear is too easy to use and allows players to kill opponents too easily. The way everyone talked about Thorn it was as if this gun could be picked up by anyone and that player would instantly unlock God mode. Not true. Not at all. That didn't happen. So the moral of this story is that Thorn is not OP. It doesn't turn bad players into great players. I got gunned down by many guns that were not Thorn. Maybe you crybabies are just awful at this game. Hell, I didn't even notice players running for cover after I hit them the first time. They just kept running at me and shooting. You nerf herders are idiots. [b]EDIT: I'm abandoning this thread. The sheer lunacy of the "nerf it" crowd is overwhelming and stifling. Usually I'm all for angry bantering back and forth with people that I think are incompetent. But the ideology of the "nerf it" community cannot be reasoned with nor appeased. It's the definition of a "mob mentality," with torches, pitch forks, and all. Good bye and good luck. I just hope you "nerf herders" know what you're doing, but I don't think you do. You all just want to catered to like spoiled children.[/b]
