Most new players love the AWP, buy it and completely suck with it.
We're against it, because we want to buy the AWP when we have the AWP, it's bad enough we can't all buy it, so saying that people need a safety net to get the AWP is crap. Just buy faster, it's not hard, it's part of the game, and more importantly part of the learning process. We don't see the need to give everyone a free buy, it's not hard to get one already. Changing the system will make it harder to get an AWP, and it's no longer based on skill. Theoretically, you may never have the chance to buy the AWP more than once a round, which just crimps certain play styles.
While you may not think the polls are accurate, I believe that they are. I asked many players in the scrim servers what they thought of a rule and they all disliked it. It's not popular on the forums, save for a small group, and a lot of our older members/experienced members have stated that they generally stray away from servers that place this kind of limitation or worse limitations.
I remain very against this idea, and I would very much dislike any sort of implementation enacted, for the previous reasons I have stated.

Quote:I was just offered the AWP from someone just standing there when I was just online. I was chatting in steam and look up and a player was flashing there light and throwing it at me. I said no thanks man have a shot at it. This is a daily occurrence.And I guarantee that for everyone 1-2 people of this, there are even more than that believing that noobs shouldn't have awps, and a superiority complex. People like this are rare in CS:S, and hell, rare in Internet gaming.
