The problem with managers (among other things) is that they let unsuitable people run the staff divisions and don't take much prerogative to correct any of their antics. Luca is a prime example, that has done horrible things in 3 different managements that were let slid away because Luca is a scripter, and the bad things can be looked over for that value. Is Luca the only one? No, but he is a big factor why UN development is in such a pity state as it is. I had never put faith into Luca when he was given his co-manager spot, and still won't after he tries to be proactive with hirings after having his job threatened.
In no way am I thinking Cron-Star is doing a bad job. He is still relatively new to his management slot, but he does have to rethink on who he should let administrate things, for the better being of the server, as well as what he thinks is good for the server. He may have not been acting ideally in situations like what Kevin stated, but I would like to assume that is corrected as one gets more comfortable with their position. The server was in a bad state way before Cron took over, so he doesn't deserve complete or even most blame. He just needs the staff team to work with him. Also, unjailing BlobZ for that shield was done by Vicious. Even I think that BlobZ didn't deserve a jailing for that.
Otherwise, I would suggest Unholy Nation go UC like Classic, until it decides on what it wants to do with their staff structure. (Edit: meaning for only a very short period of time, and yes this is extremely subjective of me.) At this point, it doesn't deserve to be on the playerworlds list. Why people still log on despite knowing nothing currently is coming to the server is beyond me. And I don't even think a management change forced by the PWA would be a good idea. They clearly failed with Backdraft. The changes Backdraft made still are negatively affecting this server.

And for the record, absolut_crono was one of the people that players were supporting for management. Maybe just not the group that you were involved with at the time.

The loudest people are clearly the ones who take the initiative to express their beliefs. You have to speak up if you honestly feel very opposed to what is going on.
