In other jobs they don't have the advantage of anonymity.

I wasn't being sarcastic you jerks. Lying is the only way that I would ever get a job anywhere.

I guess you'd rather have staff be hired who got the job through lying and have no connection to Graal whatsoever than to have people who might actually be qualified and know a lot about the game?

Your logic is astounding.

Every post you've made in this thread is simply because you're bored and want to fight about something. Boohoo, the way they hire people on Graal is unfair to the public. Big deal. You're crying like they are losing customers and business because they aren't letting John Smith apply for a job that he doesn't know anything about in the first place.

Please don't bother arguing if you can't think of a better solution to whatever it is you're complaining about.

Putting an application on their website so that they have to sift through hundreds of crappy applications to find a few that are probably lying anyway, is not a good solution. Hiring people outside of Graal who know nothing about the game is also not a good solution.

Your whole complaint is that the only way staff are hired is if they are friends of current staff. Well guess what? Usually when you're hanging around the staff a lot and you're learning how their job works and you're contributing to Graal, you're going to have a better chance at getting hired.

You're basically saying that, to be fair, they should let people who have never heard of PWA or even know what it stands for, apply for the job of PWA. I also like that you're throwing back the "you're just upset because we have different opinions!" argument.

Right, because you're not upset that Darlene and the others aren't agreeing with yours? Give me a break.

Wrong. I agree simply because I agree, and if I didn't, I wouldn't be staff. Simple.

As far as I'm concerned there shouldn't be anything personal around here, because it's a game.

It's a game for you, yes. For us that are staff, it is also a job, as well as a game. To me, any job that you take on, even if it is voluntary, should be taken seriously. That doesn't mean that staff cannot have fun on the game also.

I read the forums almost daily, usually never post. I guess this was worth it…

I read untill page 8 then skimmed the rest.
Its obvious to me those who oppose are simply jealous, and I can understand why…
They’ve been playing this game for a long time and feel they should be given a chance to tryout or at least a heads up on a possible PWA, why? Because they’re "oldbies" and active members on the forums. But most importantly jealous. Those who claim they wouldn’t of even tried out for the position or would “never” want to be a PWA are just kidding themselves.

Devil is a real negative kid, I don’t know if he has some irl problem that causes him to be that way…
Opposing something is acceptable and so is questioning it… but to me he’s just plain out crying and whining. grow up.

Don’t hate, congrats to Bell.

Why would someone be kidding if they say they dont want to be PWA? I can tell you right now some people just want to play the game. Look at what your saying.

Like for you guys to elaborate a little on why he was (and still is?) what you claim. Maybe in a PM or something.
