Ya, the whole hours to be staff thing is a bit dumb. I can understand... a little... that you wouldn't hire someone with 2 hours as GP. But how exactly does hours equate to trust or skill? Especially when this forces the person to most likely idle. Want a job as an ET? They should have you prove you actually know stuff by testing you. This stuff should be done by testing your knowledge, and letting you prove yourself via trial positions and such.
Hours should be taken out all-together. All it does it encourage people to idle, which lags others who actually want to play.
