As for the rights go:
PWA cant really have a say in the level of rights that are given out. That is a risk that the manager takes when he gives out rights like that. PWA should be able to come and give advise, but not force any action unless the person recieving the rights is a known hacker or so.

The PWA's job is much more than that or we would be "Playerworld reviewers" only as was done in the past. There was a distinction within the PWA in the past with this but today there is not and there are no just "reviewers". We are what the title says we are Playerworld Administration, which means we administer to the PlayerWorlds in all aspects to them.
To put it bluntly and in terms I am sure most will not like but is reality, we are Unixmad's frontline of control the PWs because it is not feasible for himself to try to run Graal and all the PWs too without help. This is why you have Staff to help him do this and in essence what we are and what we do. We are the "advisers, police, enforcement and complaint dept for PWs of Graal." Sorry but we are responsible for much ore than mere PW inspections, it is only a small part of what we do.

Your not thinking here Zell , Graal is made up of all PWs so any damage to any PW
is damage to Graal since Graal owns all do they not? The $ 100 doesn't give you any ownership rights to Graal; it only affords you the temporary space to use to make a PW of your choosing within the rules already set forth for you to follow. It is no different from you buying materials for any other hobbies you may have. Lets take wooden airplanes, you buy wood to make the body of the plane but you don't "own the Forrest" just because you purchased the wood do you? No of course not and the same principle applies to hosting, you are simply buying materials for you to work with. If you don't like spending that much on a "hobby" then don't it's your choice but you still don't own anything and are governed by what you can and cannot do with Graal by the people who do own it.

On a personal side note:
I seem to agree I really don't see a harm on having Staff like GPs or FAQ on a UC Playerworld if they are getting players there. They will serve a purpose if the UC playerworld is getting players even if it is only a few. It will afford the rest of the Staff to do their developing by having those Staff handle what players they get while they work. I am in favor of this myself and I am sure this will be discussed in the PWA Forum with the rest of the PWA sometime soon.

Btw adverstising on the Forums is against the rules so I would remove that from my sig if I were you , it's not allowed.
