I never said someone who spars isn't going to know about spar. That doesn't make any sense. Of course there's a correlation between understanding something and being good at it. What do you think I meant? Sparrers are just randomly slashing their swords crossing their fingers for a win?
It's definitely possible to know how something works, without being good at it. Just because someone doesn't have a 1000+ win ratio doesn't mean they don't understand sparring.

There's a reason majority of the spar community don't mind someone like Fulgore patrolling the arena...he's someone who's been in the spar community for a while...I think we'd all prefer more people like him monitoring the arena instead of some random Zanza member...I mean lets take for example lag...i'm sure many people have faced someone who's frozen and when they unfreeze they move really fast around the arena for a small while...someone like Fulgore would probably understand it's just due to lag but one of your random admins would probably assume it's speed hacking...
Not having a go against the other admins but having some people like Thallen/Fulgore/Jack/James/Relic/Kosma/Tego etc. who have been playing for a while as admin to monitor spars would be more beneficial and make more sense than having a random person since they understand spar better. Wouldn't you agree?

In all honesty I don't see how 90% of the sparers that represent themselves on this website would be any better at patrolling than the current staff members.

Majority of sparrers including myself probably probably aren't the best people to monitor spars...I mean lots of sparrers always throw hacking/longsword other accusations at each other in rage, but as mentioned above experienced players of the game who know the spar mechanics well would make better admins to patrol spars than some random sparrers or current admins.
