I think asking for there not to be a one-click "I win" kill on the portapuke isnt over the top. we got rid of that on crushers and gibbers anyways, and those are stationary.
I've seen a number of rampages on classic with the portapuke. With a flash, with a belt, with a traitor who has a faustian kit, with stolen sec gear, with lube. I've seen one like minirampage on RP with it. it's a great item, it should be big and obvious and scary, and I'd like to keep it viable for people to use it; almost nobody gets a portapuke on RP. Every time I've seen them other than one rampage and one other round, they've been abandoned or stashed by spies who never intend to use it. so, in that case, I think trying to turn attention to some of the things that might make the experience with it better on classic is not a bad thing. Removing an instant kill or removing infinite capacity on the portapuke is a nonissue on RP. nobody is getting to 30-player rampages with the portapuke.
maybe not my place to say but I've enjoyed my time on both servers. I think we do a disservice to each other when we dont listen to the experiences from either set of servers, whether that's generalizing classic players as rude, unfiltered and aggressive, or generalizing rp players as squishy unrobust babies afraid of playing a game.
