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.

Again, it goes back to the question of "Are the qualified? Do they have account history? What is there "image" like in the community? Do they have a forum presence?" You can't hire someone just because they would "make good GPs in theory".
While there are times where GPs can patrol areas, usually there's always a bunch of reports coming in that there isn't much time, so usually they won't visit the spar arena unless there is a report there.

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.

Once again,
GPs don't have any sort of involvement with the game engine or how it can be fixed. Since there is no point in talking about that I'll stop talking about this topic since the only people who have any sort of control over that are the developers themselves.

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.
|
No system is perfect. They will all have flaws. If you have a suggestion for how the system can be improved I'm sure the GPs would like to hear it.

"People who will ban speed hackers won't reduce the number of speed hackers on iClassic"
|
As ridiculous as it sounds, it's true. Yes maybe a few here and there will stop, but a majority of these hackers know what they are doing, and thus know how to get around these bans. It's impossible to stop them all.
|
Lol @ the people ITT claiming there's some sort of super high standard for hiring GPs. I got hired as a stupid 15 year-old noob with less than 2k hours of play time simply because I had never been banned and managed to BS my entire application very effectively.
I wouldn't have hired me.

A prime example of how far BSing an application will get you. Yes he got hired, but look where he is now. :x
