Hello from Gun Admin & Gun Changes

[paintballdude956]

Hey all,
My name's Ishmael Soul and I'm the new Gun Admin. I've been playing Era for a while (and some people used to think I was good at it), so I hope to bring some real-player experience to the job. Having someone who has and does pk extensively in this spot is pretty valuable, in my opinion.
At the same time, I don't purport to be anything close to perfect. I'm going to make mistakes, and I'm open to input from anyone.
For that reason, I want to be as transparent as possible. That's why I'm going to be doing gun changes in bulk with as much visibility as I can. Every Sunday, I'll make a post on the forums with a link to the gun changes and a brief summary of my reasoning behind them. Then, on Wednesday, I'll actually implement the changes. This gives people a little bit of notice before their favorite gun suddenly changes.

One more comment: I'm not one of those "grumpy oldbies" who wants to make all guns like the old Ak47. I'm not planning on any enormous changes at the moment. I'm making the current Era more balanced.

I'll do my best to be active on the forums now and read input. Another good idea would be to send me in-game mail if you wanna get ahold of me.

First changes will be found here: http://pastebin.com/SiYiuafH

Not listed, but also being implemented: boomerang will no longer be hotkeyable
Remember these don't go into effect until Wednesday
