Right.
The thing that made PPA "exclusive" was the guns that they had.
To get a grasp on how much faster guns have become, take a look at mainstream guns and compare them to the PPA guns that have(for the most part) been unmodified since their reign.
In the hey-days, yeah, PPA's guns were considered to be the "best".
People would often say, "PPA's only good because they have those lame guns", etc, etc.
PPA was a small group of people protecting people given any situation. Respectively, their guns were slightly faster than guns available to the common player.
If you compare them to today's guns, they're not so great.
In fact, the three years or so of gun "development" has buffed mainstream guns so much that they're puny in comparison.
If I were to give PPA guns the edge over mainstream guns that they once had, it would be beyond lame. Their guns would fire ridiculously fast, with walling capabilities out the kazoo, doing at least 20-25 damage.
Needless to say, the bar for PKing has been drastically lowered over the years.
It's all about speed, speed, speed; spray, spray, spray.
As much as I would love to "tune down" every gun on Era to increase the demand for PK-skill, the trigger-happy products of New Era would complain, simply because they're too dependent on the gun than their PK-skill. As guns admin, this realization is depressing to say the least.
Point being: PPA now needs more than just the guns to make them "exclusive".
About the large amount of NoPK-zones, well, hopefully Angel's suggestion of making one centralized safe-zone would debunk that.
