Im not blaming you, but i believe you no more than you tell. I know who spawned them, but it doesn't seem anyone cares.

Yeah thank you, at least somone else on his staff team wasn't oblivious to it all.
I had a PR check to see how certain players had become unbelievably rich in such a short amount of time, and I personally went to Chris about it, and he got defensive about it all, I knew from there something was up. The logs didnt seem right either, they were edited by someone.
Chris wasn't the only person doing it though. I'm not going to point fingers at anyone else, but there were 1 or 2 others definitely doing the same thing.

From this moment onward, nobody is ever allowed to say that they miss "old Era" and how "fun and loosebased" it was, because if this is what happens for the extremely minor things Chris did in comparison to the amount of forward development he brought, the community has clearly changed too much for that time.
That said, to fix the problem of "corruption," a staff is immediately hired filled almost entirely with blacklisted people, including previous RC holders who have been banned for malicious use of rights, people involved in many spawning incidents over the years, and people who are known to abuse glitches in other ways, such as duping and scamming. Rather than doing it slowly and testing each individual staff member, the entire trusted staff was removed at once and replaced with a staff of untested members wielding RC rights.
Geo may have been a fine manager, but that was way too fast of a staff overhaul for a time when this much development was happening. You should have slowed your roll a little.
Chris, in my opinion you were great as manager, you had more forward development than we've had in the course of four years and God knows how many management teams. I hope this next-bus stops soon.
Best of luck to Kinetaro too, you've been helping on Era as long as anyone, and I doubt any of the current staff have nearly the amount of development wisdom as you do.

This is from GC:
I keep seeing people complain about the members I hired, yet most of them had no staff rights. I didn't hire TheJames, I sent him Kin's way to be tested and Kin I guess liked what he saw and hired him. TheJames never was given RC rights, neither was Cloyd or rogue or most of the people on RC. People like to jump to conclusions and say OMG HE HIRED ALL THESE ABSUIVE STAFF MEMBERS....and/or OMG HE HIRED ALL THESE GUYS WITHOUT TRYING THEM OUT! I know who they are, I know what they can do, none of them had RC rights and were being tested out, but again people jump to conclusions and fire me while I'm sleeping. Stupidity of people never amazes me...please don't jump to conclusions just by what a PWA has said. Anyway, i wish kinetaro the best of luck.
