"Professional", I hope you're referring to people that play leagues and earn from the game. The reason you see them getting 5 kills in a round with MP5s is because it was a save round of the opposite team. All you need is 2 hits to the head with an MP5. So there's no reason to get an AK/M4. In pubs, players don't really care. They'll buy whatever they can afford.
tl;dr you cant compare professionals to pubbers.

I think, more people who favor AWPs would stop playing on our servers if this were implemented. I'm still leaving my vote as no.

You missed the point I think, The post where i quoted stated "In the hands of a good player, any gun is deadly. In the hands of a newer player, the p90 & Autosniper are also just as deadly" I was agreeing with it in the sense that at the Streaming Pro CS players and events(twitch.tv). The pros are better with a mp5 then I(and prob 95% of average pub players) am with a AK. It was not meant to compare the MP5 and AK47 as identical guns that have the same use and recoil. I do agree with the bottom statement, I favor the awp and voted no. With the current settings I do not have allot of trouble getting one, And if I feel the need to play 3 hours of awping on office I just go to a unrestricted Awp server. No server is going to please everyone, but since our server do a pretty good job at holding a population I would say don't change it. Just make a second 24/7 office server with unrestricted awps and I bet in a short time both servers will maintain a high pop.
