I've read almost every response to this thread, so I'm going to address everything in one big wall of text. I would like you to read the following as if I were a normal player, and not a staff member.
This is my reasoning for wanting a reset earlier this year. Please note that I just copied and pasted this from the old forums. I just calculated the amount of money I've donated, and it amounts to roughly $730 AUD. Now, I know a donation is a donation and I am more than happy to be helping the server I love so much - but we all know that 99% of players donate so that they can receive perks, items and money. I don't blame you, I wouldn't have donated anywhere near as much money if I didn't receive any perks. Since the start of the year, I've spent nearly $300 on item packs. These item packs have given me about $10,000,000 and these items:

I know, we're losing everything - but I believe it's worth it as we will be able to rid the server of most of the glitched and duplicated items circulating at the moment. Keep in mind,
these items are giving other players an unfair advantage over you. I believe most of us have been through that frustrating moment when you step outside of a safe zone just to be gunned down by that player who ALWAYS seems to have full Juggernaut armour. Wouldn't it be great to stand a chance?
Not convinced? Resetting now will most likely make it easier to track legendary items and see where huge inflations are coming from. If an inflation occurs, it would be easier to catch the players doing it and put an end to whatever duplication glitch they could be abusing because everyone else won't have all of the duplicated jugg that they have right now. If this still doesn't convince you, keep in mind that you will still have a month to use your items and money. If you choose not to use them, well, that's up to you but if you use them now it's not like you're really losing anything. Everyone who bought crates recently will be compensated for the inconvenience. As for the players who may leave, we will be able to increase the amount of players anyway as it will be easier for newbies to survive longer, and we will most likely get updates which will encourage new players to join. I personally think that this reset is well-worth the trouble.
Either way, whether you're happy about it or not - this reset will be happening. You can either choose to accept it, or get angry. Although, getting angry won't solve anything. Just accept it, look at all of the positives and move on. Angry comments won't change anyone's mind and we are usually such a close community - Let's get back to that. Thank you.
