Stop bickering and at least give the new system a fair try before you denounce it. Change is always confusing and frustrating in the beginning, but I'd say that the game developers have shown that they are ready to modify pretty much any aspect of the game in order to get as many satisfied players as possible, even if everyone can't be as pleased at once...

As you may surmise I haven't been banned! :-) And while they are no longer maxed out, all of my previously maxed weapons are @ power level 40, while others are capped at 35 while I am lvl 40. And I can use all of my weapons regardless of what level they now unlock at. And as you should have noticed by now, upgrade cost has plummeted from hundreds to tens of gems. I also received a pretty decent set of mods, including three lvl 2s & a lvl 3, plus 250 shards to play around with! It'll be interesting to get to know the system, even if I think that they may have over complicated it somewhat… but I should be able to benefit from it anyway, since my brain is well suited to that kind of calculation. ;-)

And as to "waisting gems" on expensive weaponry, I have spent my fair share on "p2w" weapons, but lately I have bought a whole lot of older Epic (and a couple of Legendary) weapons, like the Acid Pistol, Laser Revolver, Acid Cannon, Death Claws & Crystal Laser Cannon. Sure, they may cost coins now, but it's not like I spent a lot of money on getting them, rather I got the gems from the last Battle Pass.

I do wonder what we are supposed to spend coins on now though… more weapons of course, but I have already gotten pretty much all the ones I want, and with the mod-system, focusing on a few favourites of each category, perhaps with a couple of different elements for different weapons of favoured categories, is the way to go, rather than getting a ton of options, but having to spend shards on every weapon change! (I already have lots of options in pretty much every category, but I have also found my favourites and will be focusing on them to start with).

I'll go and level up to 41 and report back with actual upgrade cost for a single level.
