Notes Intro First off, Viral and Sotori play gachi music using the discord bot, driving away most of those who joined before the conference even began. To those who haven't heard, Donkie and Rick are splitting off from Devinity. Bayrock introduced his list of staff to demote. Most of the Devinity staff were inactive before they moved to Exhale. After the conference, said staff will be demoted. Discussion A new message will be sent out, and we will be actively looking for new staff to welcome to the team. Bayrock explains the deal with Donkie, and tells the conference that Donkie and him are on good terms as well. Balancing and prop changes were brought up. Events as well. A consensus was to change the health of props and/or damage done by weapons, as well as the stats for the guns individually. All of these statistics were compiled by both Viral and Sotori and brought in to question. An extensive list is below. More will be added among discussion in the staff chats. Spoiler: Changes Dual Deagles will be vaulted Newer players will be given more weapons. Suggestion such as heavy weapons and grenades. Weapon skins were brought up as an idea, but not an action. Weapon categories will limit X amount of weapons per category. Pistols/Smg's/etc will now have a limit to how many guns one can carry. The SMG's will be extensively reviewed and most of the recoil for them will be bumped down as to fit the essence of the weapons themselves. More VIP weapons will be added/vaulted, to bring a sense of exclusivity and balance so they're not OP. Weapons dealing decimal damage will now be rounded based on the weapon. The eviscerator's price will be changed. Closure Counter talks about a dildo and screams at Bayrock like a chimp, interrupting anyone and everyone trying to contribute. The title of "Community Manager" will be changed back to "Super Admin" Counter brings up an overhaul to the christmas drops, as well as the weapons given out. Some of the channels in the discord will be renamed, such as staff chat back to jrmodpub. Current staff applicants have been promoted.
