Managers can manage their server how they want. If they want people who get in trouble still representing their server, then that's their thing.

there is nothing to stop a manager from being abusive as hell on their server. if they wanna run it as an absentee-dictatorship, then go for it

if they wanna close down the server regardless of community protest, they can do it

For UC servers, at least. The PWA are supposed to keep a check on things for Classic servers. Though, it can be pretty difficult to get a manager fired; just look at Valikorlia and Clash.

Making it against the rules for players to represent their server for misbehavior is stupid?

What? Could you possibly stop trying to start an argument just for the sake of causing an argument?

I don't think this is actually the case, GraalOnline should be taking a much more active role in presenting a professional image.

A good way to strengthen your argument/suggestion is to provide recent examples that support it.

I don't know how other servers do it but I fire people who are troublemakers. If the server you login to doesn't write an email to the PWA. There's no point implementing something that a Manager/Admin should be making sure doesn't happen in the first place.

It's also important to note that due to Graal having such a small community, everyone knows everyone and doing a background/idiot check is simple as asking your fellow staff on RC.

You have this silly belief that jailings actually mean something.

If a staff member gets banned, chances are that they'll be fired anyway. If they get jailed, there's actually a high chance it was something petty. If they keep their job, then either their wrongdoing wasn't that big of a deal, or it was important to have them around. Justice on Graal is silly. People get jailed and banned all the time for little, petty things.

There's no reason some rule should be implemented that says if you get jailed for saying Brad Pitt is sexy, you lose your Level Admin job.


Look at it this way. Tig manages GK/PWA. He doesn't have the cleanest of histories on Graal. If he gets jokingly pillored for playing around while people are kart racing, he's not going to get fired. And he shouldn't. If he gets nailed for hacking and spawning items for friends, he might get fired. And he should. Not because of this rule, but because that's common sense.
