If people like it then I have no complaints, but I like the system as we have it. Plenty complex as-is.
The meta of TTT here is much different than the default one though. Having more variety isn't a bad thing as long as they don't completely make the older weapons useless.
I feel like the system I suggested would be the best way to keep weapons balanced, and take a lot of the load off of me. Balancing can be difficult, and time consuming, and it can be very hard to find a good spot for a weapon to sit in the meta (as you've said). That's why I'd enlist players that have a lot more playtime than me to help out with this, other than just through suggestions.
The system will track who eddited what, when, have notes the 'adjusters' can leave each other, etc.
So say I add a new Pistol type, and it has completely terrible stats. They would be in charge of adjusting the stats to make it better, but not OP. To try and find a unique spot in the meta for it.
