On the GP application:

"what guilds have you joined and what ranks have you held in them"

I don't even get how this question is significant for the application.

I'm sure they'd much rather somebody with the experience of being a leader in say, VG, to somebody who has no experience having any sort of power and respect like that. I'm sure that question has absolutely nothing to do with admin favouritism.

Going to change my mind on this one, I think I'd have to agree with you. They also ask what guild you owned, I guess its a 'leadership' kind of thing.

The only way I see this question being relevant is if admins want to see what kind of leadership qualities one possesses. For example, didn't the leader of Venus Gospel become an admin? I'm sure it isn't a huge determining factor, however being leader of a major tower taking guild could show your ability to manage and organize.

Aster has also been known very well, has been the leader of the best guild on iClassic, was in an in-Game relationship with Julius who just got GPA and has always been liked by the staff.
Anything else?

Aka favoritism and fame, that's right kids, it's not who is best for the job, it's who you know and whether you are the owner of a major tower guild that did nothing for the server other than monopolize tower taking. YAY!

Isn't Aster a teacher irl? If she was she wouldn't have time for this fail game XD

It's true. GP's are useless. They have never once helped us with a hacker or glitcher at our forts.

But if you get mad about it and, for example, put "FIRE [STAFF MEMBER]" in your nick name, they will take immediate action and either warn or ban you for "offensive nick name / harassing staff."

Fire all GP's and start anew.

I'm sure your opinion of hacking is how they somehow took your tower. Grow up Bin no one likes you.

I've always noticed that; people who are close to admins end up getting hired to staff. My friend joined an admin guild for that very reason.  

I have never had assistance from and GP in iClassic ever. I had to spam feedback to actually get some help. Then they banned me from feedback >=(

This is the typical experience of almost everyone I know. They communicate to staff via feedback, then are banned from leaving feedback.

If someone at a restaurant and has a problem, does the owner kick out people who complain about the food? Of course not. They do everything that they can to make it right. Graal is a business, and the players are its customers. Stop banning them when they tell you how to improve the game.

Yeah, that happens to me too. Especially when I actually do need help.

I don't recall being helped by a GP when I've asked for help.

Actually, the only time I have ever been helped by a GP was a while ago when I was banned; I was forced to message Matt directly on Facebook. How convenient is it for GPs to have PM privacy?

Better get used to it... That's what live is all about. No lie.  

I also hate when they don't answer important Questions
