I'd say a live area is an area a normal player can access without the aid of an adminstrator.

This should be up to the playerworld Manager, not the PWA. There are various reasons for this. If a playerworld gets deleted, ban the person who deleted it, and reupload the content. The entirety of the situation takes longer on the global to ban the guy who did it, then it does to reupload the backup. Is that why this rule is trying to be pushed?
Im simply grasping at straws or something tonight but it seems you are pushing to make the job as easy as possible, i know you dont get paid but you are expected to deliver a service. Most people who are requesting that service pay for it. Granted Classic playrworlds are frozen, and recieve free time, but (Starting with Zodiac) have paid for awhile to be where they are.
I am going to draft up a bigger reply to this later, for the most part it seems like rather then helping the worlds and letting them have fun, this new layout is ment to govern and control them, and thats something I cant say I agree with. There should be limits yes, but the limits you are allowed to set should also be limited.

It is a serious security issue to have lots of people with full rights. It's a rule in the IT world to never give anyone more rights than they need to complete their duties, and for good reason. If tons of people can do anything, it's only asking for trouble. Lots of people renting servers don't want to bother with managing their rights properly, and I've seen people get burned by it many times. I'd say limiting servers to 3 level 4 RCs is actually lenient.
Many servers also don't keep their own backups and rely on Stefan to provide them when needed. Stefan's pretty busy and it can take days to restore a server sometimes, which results in a lot of lost productivity and angry players.
