All staff positions should be genuine and with an exclusive purpose. E.g. You do not need someone to upload heads when the manager or graphics admin could do that.

Unless you're willing to cite some examples of why servers should not have a PR team to handle uploads, I don't see what's wrong with it. It's very convenient to have people in charge of these things this way other staff who probably have better things to do are not bothered with messages to upload heads. PRs also eliminate the need for an FAQ admin and a FAQ team because they are also there to handle player questions. It's Player Relations, not Head Uploader.
If it's really a problem, Era has a pretty good system of uploading heads. Our GPs that have an RC are basically labeled as PRs and they handle all the uploading. Each GP has their own day scheduled to them to upload. Heads are always being uploaded and I haven't had too many complaints on slow uploading (the ones I do get are just because players are mad their heads aren't uploaded as soon as they send them in)
Even so, that's just a last resort. I really don't think it's necessary to outlaw managers from hiring a PR team. Managers in no way should be responsible for uploading heads, nor should GAT admins. Era doesn't even have a GAT admin.
PRs have been around for a while and I've never seen a problem with it. I don't see what you see so please, explain to me and everyone else why you think there shouldn't be a PR team because I fail to see any negative things that have come out of it.
