1) Too much of a learning curve

Now, of course, you may dismiss this as "Lvl up yourself", but the truth is, new players can't do it. See, high rankers keep stealing kills from the newbies with their OP weapons (ex. AK-47, Chainsaw,etc.), and that makes the learning curve longer than it already should. Then, the newbie is an underpowered Zombie, and the cycle continues. I have to say, everything there is true. I've experienced the pain and terror in debug. It's not like before, somewhere where rambo knives weren't there, I could get an M16 in a matter of hours, unlike today's situation where samurais and military trained generals roam around the apocalypse just for fun.

"Help! I'm getting attacked by a smoker!"

Then someone just runs up to you and says "Fudge you, you're no value to my survivability."

Sometimes it's the community we've gotta deal with in a situation like this.

To add, I've been saying this a million times now and yet Place still lets arrogant lazy bastards get rank 29 while helpful community members of the Wikia get crap and that's all they can use.
