Events and gps vs Hosted section?

[excaliber7388]

I've heard multiple people say that having events team or GPs as staff before you are hosted, you may hurt yout chances for getting your server on the hosted section. First off, is this true? If so, this is a rather foolish rule. I know that while in develope mode, you shouldn't have that kind of staff because you're developing, but that doesn't make much sence. The events on my sevrer are responsible for making events, as well as hosting them. In fact, the old events admin recently became good enough at levels and scripting to get the Co-manager possition. If it weren't for the fact that he was an events member, he never would have gotten this far (in fact in the beggining he only wanted to be events). He's contributed a LOT to the server, and if he had not been with us as an events member, he never would have helped us out with our levels and such. My GP chief has been on DR for more hours than me, and has contributed, gfx, heads, and bodies, as well as levels. So yes, it's a dev sevrer, and all staff members server to make the server better in some way. If you have only dev staff, and you have 10 staff members who work on ONLY dev materials, you're not doing as good as a server with 10 dev staff, and 7 events or gps, who also contribute. My non dev staff have helped push DR on a lot, and have made it fun (as DR has been playable for some time). We have a good events system, coins, and prizes, as well as a good jailing system, why waste them? So, if this is a real rule, I would like a good explanation for it, and why i should get rid of some of my staff, just because they would rather host an event than make levels (and all the events or GPs have uploaded something to the server anyway). So why make these rules that would only slow me down? Please clear this rumor up, and if it's not a rumor, help me to understand why it is a rule. Thanks!
