first off, telling lies will only make things worse. As a lie always returns. The only possible thing BBs can do is being honest with the community. Leave the lies to the cheaters.
I don't think a BB will get the same treatment as the 'normal Joe'. And the same goes for all BB staff. They are treated a lot harder, as they are the face, and the flag of the game. They can not afford to have it spoiled. Where people accept there will always be cheaters among the 'normal Joes' they neverwill accept there are bad guys among the crew as well, and they are very right about it.
Where normal Joes often get second chances (after waiting a certain period of time and with the promise to be good, and keeping it) I don't think it is fitting for a crew member to get such a second chance, as they actually already made a promise to be good by joining the crew...
So don't count on special threatments here.
They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.
