Phosphorous:
So with every MMO comes thousands of players, and of course they'll find ways to cheat other players; others are just completely rude, and we all know that this MMO is going to attract the younger kids more than anyone else. Anyways it's always important to keep PU safe for everyone, although I doubt there are going to be creepers in the game; again you never know.

So I'm just wondering if the game becomes too big, and there are many complaints; too many to keep up with and fix/handle; will the PU team make some players in the game moderators to deal with such things ?

Doubt it.

What you're referring to are GMs (Game Masters). Every MMO has them and they're far from "players" as you are portraying here.

GMs won't be "just "anybody, their hand picked and often do more mitigating than actually playing. I'm sure most of the current PU team will be GMs and they might get others later. Either way, GM teams usually aren't very large even for huge games.

And thats why, like any MMO... You will have to wait for houres even days to get the help you need, just to complete the MMO feeling ;)

That's not necessarily true. In WoW, I've never had to wait more than 2 days for a response. Which, in my opinion, is fine. Most people don't realize that GMs have a TON of duties and they have to deal with all of people's complaints. Those kinds of things take time.

Alais:
It's generally a good idea to let players choose to be Mentors, for answering newbie questions. A player picks it as an option in the game settings, and gets a symbol next to their name, or a unique name colour, so that people know they're fine with answering questions from random players. As for Game Masters, I am sure we will recruit players we know and trust to help us with the various rule-enforcement tasks.
