One of my primary concerns personally, was for instance how the Thale's excessively good zoom pre-Delta allowed snipers to easily kill players from outside their rendering distance. There was no way to identify the location of a sniper shot, even if you survived it.
Uhm... it's called situational awareness and hit markers. If you know where you are it's pretty easy to figure out where a shot came from, especially when you have a red marker that pops up to point out the general direction. Even when you're insta-killed you can still catch a brief glimpse of the hit marker (though Dust is kind of sluggish on my ps3 so that might be why I catch it).

Because for one, you're going to have to get into that range to counter them. You cannot get in range of a weapon you cannot find. And whether a sniper is in the redline or not is largely irrelevant, in my book, when the real problem is often that there's no way to find the sniper at all.
It's harder to counter them now than it was before. Simply because now you have to get so close to them. Before you could counter-snipe from the redline if you wanted to avoid the infantry threat but on the other hand that's where everyone looked for snipers; or like some us you could counter-snipe from within the actual battle zone where you were exposed to every threat in the game but not many would look there for snipers. Now you have to be in the battle zone to counter snipe a sniper and everyone knows it and looks there for you.

Yeah, well we're all entitled to our (wrong) opinions. If you're still considering differing views as 'complaints' then maybe it was a bad idea to re-elect you for CPM. Honestly i dont see how the guy got re-elected in the first place.
He got re-elected because the voting process wasn't explained clearly. Which ended making some votes for candidates shift over to other candidates, if I recall correctly (a comprehensive explanation is on the forums somewhere for those that care to search for it).
