Taken from my conversation with Sam:

Why'd you buy all the SMGPKs?:
I bought the SMGPKs because I thought it was a cool gun
to represent Leute. I bought five of them and handed them
out to Leute members three weeks prior to getting Staff.

On a server where people want fast guns with low freeze, the
SMGPK didn't contend with the other guns; it had low fire rate
and high freeze by comparison, so they were easy for us to obtain.

They were perfect PKing guns for us though, because we don't
need low freeze/high fire rate to be effective; and they were rare
enough for us to keep them leute-exclusive.

Why did you buff the SMGPKs?
Since Leute started using them, the SMGPKs gained popularity; I've
been getting PMs asking to buff it for weeks. I didn't change it
because I was completely satisfied with it. Then I got a PM from some
random guy, asking "Why does the SMGPK suck and the PPSH rock?"

I stepped back for abit, because I never compared the two-- Then I thought
about it: Both are previous gang guns, not available at shops
anymore-- they're in the same class. They should be comparable.

In adjusting it though, I wanted to make it different from the PPSH-- I
didn't want to give it low freeze, but I didn't want to keep it at such a
disadvantage that I get more PMs asking to buff it; so I increased the fire
rate, and gave it a little more freeze to compensate.

Trust me, I didn't "buff" it to give myself an advantage-- we were completely
satisfied PKing with it before the "buff". This was just to give the gun more
value to the general public, and make it comparable to the PPSH.

You're really messing people up with the prices, and causing many to lose tons of money.

I never buffed the Famas-- I'm not sure who did.
I logged on, and got complaints that it was lamer than a Sten; so I adjusted it.
