I don't mean to offend anyone, but it doesn't take a master chef to know when something is burnt. In other words, hiring people to stand around in the spar arena all day and ban/warn like, two or three people every couple hours or so isn't a good usage of their time because honestly, it is easy to tell when someone is hacking. They may as well be actual GPs. A GP could do the same thing while making dozens of other bans/warns and respond to all of the other reports that are happening. And then at that point, it circles back to if they are qualified or not.
The problem would be fixed if there were more qualified GPs, because that means more GPs can be online at certain times of the day, which means reports will be answered faster. Situations where a hacking is hacking for over an hour or so are unfortunate cases, but the only reasons nothing happened is because, more than likely, a GP wasn't online to deal with it.

Well then hire them as GPs. It's already been stated that there've been many responsible, qualified, mature people in the sparring community who were all ignored, except Fulgore.
edit: Also David's point is correct, require the current GPs to spend a few minutes here and there in the arena just patrolling, rather than responding to a report.

This is something to discuss with Dusty or another developer and even though you won't be telling them something they don't already know.

PR related issues aren't something to discuss with Dusty, fp4 or another developer. PR related issues are partially the responsibility of Xor but moreso the responsibility of the admins assigned to PR tasks, in this case the GP team. I only used the comment about fp4 and Dusty and the code to give you a parallel example to how somebody can still work and make positive change within a restrictive environment.

Again, we cannot look into a person's brain and see their true intentions. People lie, people exaggerate, and people will say things to get hired. There is no possible way to tell if somebody will go rogue in the future.
As for "corrupt admins", I can't really think of anyone who has abused their powers in the past couple of years (except Soren but that was almost three years ago I think).

I'm still agreeing with this point as I said last time, but my point is and has been that there's methods to mitigating/preventing these exact problems, some of which you're already employing. If there's still problems maybe you need to change the way you employ them or try some different approaches.
