There is a distinct difference between having knowledge and using that knowledge. Some things can't be helped, but for example I made most of the first generation of mustang spawns and I couldn't tame them until they were found by someone else and my player character was passed that knowledge. I couldn't go search for them obviously I just had to wait until they were found. You think that staffing is cake and we get the best of everything but you're forgetting as Minax has said that we can't participate in any quests or events we're involved in. Having knowledge is a handicap when we're forced to refrain from using any part of that knowledge because it would be considered cheating.

In addition as Minax points out, if I as a staff did not have a player character, I would not be able to address half the questions people page about. I know the answer to most of them because I've had the same issues as a player myself.

Yes we as staff know a great deal about the world that all players don't know but we as staff must hold ourselves to a different standard in that we know not to take advantage of the knowledge we possess. Our staff character and our player character live different lives which don't cross. You can continue to doubt the staff you have here or you can trust the administration in hiring upright and mature staff who know not to cross the limits.

There are numerous more important things that Okan addresses. If you really think staff is going to be prevented from enjoying themselves on a player character after all the effort they put into making the world a better place to play in you are just wasting your time.
