Bouncer is a messy weapon

I'm switching my go-to weapon as the bouncer instead of the phaser.
What I've discovered is that it's a really messy weapon in actual use, even by just one person. Now the way I use it tends towards spray and pray, but in bursts: You cannot fire it continuously like a phaser which is very good. It makes the screen horrific

one person with bouncer gets messy fast. I don't know if I want to see everyone using bouncer at the same time.

Raptor wants to discourage newer players from joining the BitTown server. I'd guess because it doesn't really embody the normal gameplay of Bitfighter. It's more of a "for fun" server. Previously it said "BAD SERVER" and I was like "Uhh that makes it sound like it sucks, let's do something smarter" so now it says this. Heh!

I appreciate raptor's concern, but for me personally, as a new user I think I'd feel alienated by the message. Even today whenever there's a new server up that I can't get to, I feel like it's some exclusive club that I'm not a part of. What about changing the message to something like, "Server Contains Unofficial Gameplay" etcetera that is more direct?

"Unofficial Gameplay" would suffice, I think. Or some other similar thing. I agree the current message looks very elitist, which is very misleading as there hasn't really been elitism in this community since _k stopped showing up.

Or even put it in the description, in case character space is a problem.

Rename it to "Train to BitTown" and the description is "ALLL ABOARRRDDD." Problem solved.
