In any event, I understand your point.
How you act toward players is important, seeing as your job is Player Relations.
That being said, all of the PRs hired as of now, were poor when it came to player-relations. I think a majority of the ones who knew them beforehand still dislike them to this day. Even as PRs, they are stuck-up and pompous, believe they're "better" than regular players.
I mean, if your judgement character or behaviour toward players, where did MontyPython come from? Shoot, even before then... Gabriel? Lets just say his FAQ Admin carreer was a less than reputable one (Being nice). Squirt as of late (past few months), as I've seen and heard has been purely antisocial.
Furthermore, their opinion should not play a big role. Simply because its just that, opinion. Easily-biased, and if you can find me an unbiased PR Admin, I 100 agree with you. Players are people, people generally have bias in all that they do. We all try to be practical, if a man wrongs you... and you can obtain revenge with impunity, you will take the opportunity. Its human nature.
Squirt can deny a player PR position because of a personal reason and mask it with another of no significance. I mean, I heard he fired Erik for attempting to Fix Dunez's mistake. As I know, from our conversations... he's been planning to fire Erik for quite some time, since his dislike of him. Perfect example.
So please, never ever rely on the opinion of a single person. We're all biased in our own way, my point is... if he's going to use bias to hire. Skip the application step, its a waste of time. He can simply hire who he knows he'll hire anyway, rather than being understaffed in order to setup a "front" that everyone will read right through.
To Gabriel: That is such a political response, save it. Lol. Funny kid.

I have been more inactive and have been playing less in general since school, my assignments, and work. Therefore, you won't find me be as active in a gang/raiding or even going on Ventrillo like I have done so before. However, that does not mean I won't answer peoples questions/concerns if they have one. They can leave a support ticket, message me on AIM, forum PM, and a whole host of other things to contact me.
Now, in regards to PR applications. I would say out of the three people going through the applications I was the most lenient with a persons prior history. Just because someone has a big ban history, or has a bad reputation since how he acts does not mean that I won't hire them. If they show that they would be professional and show that they REALLY want to be part of the team I would be willing to give them a chance.
Also, I never fired Erik just because I dislike him. I'm good friends with Erik (still am for what I know) and I always went on ventrillo with him and etc. His removal has nothing to do with my personal opinion with him.
PS- Lexus has no grounds in making his accusations. He didn't even apply for PR in the first place.
