Opening Remarks

As of the start of this meeting, this channel will not be publicly viewable until we conclude.

I feel that community input on the contents of meetings while they are still occurring creates distraction. I am pleased that Community Members feel invested in our meeting contents! However, comments outside this channel on subjects which we are still in the process of discussing can lead -- and has led -- to diversionary discussions outside of this channel.

This distracts Staff, increases difficulty for future readers following discussion, and prolongs our meeting duration. I cherish the time that I am with you! However, I suspect Staff would like to keep meetings as brief as possible!

Additionally, discussions created by the community during these meetings may give the impression that decisions we make are subject to concurrent debate. They are not. Community input is valued and Project Topaz will always strive to take it into account! However, it is ultimately Staff which decides the undertakings of Staff.

Community Members who wish to be active participants in Staff meetings are encouraged to apply! Should they be successful they will receive the additional privileges -- and responsibilities -- of the role.

This channel will again be viewable by the entire community once we conclude.

Closing Remarks

I recognize that this is a very difficult time for Project Topaz.

Please always remember that I have the utmost faith and confidence in your abilities.

However, please be certain to take care of yourselves!

None of you are being paid for the time you volunteer to the community. Do not feel obligated to devote more time than you would care to give.

On that subject, official project activities are paused for the duration of the Return Home to Vana'diel campaign.

You may use this as an opportunity to acquire information from retail -- or take a well-deserved break!
