[SSRP] Miners deserve a little consideration

I bought VIP yesterday, finally, after being told by literally every admin that it would be the best option to avoid RDM as a miner, which happens a lot in Server 1 and 3. A couple friends of mine had told me about "Nunu", a player who kept killing them as a hitman on Server 2. But hey, everyone gets a guy who does that from time to time. Didn't think too much about it. I got a spot as a miner there two days ago, before VIP. And I almost lost it, because Nunu killed me as a hitman and ASAP tried to demote me, but I was not demoted. I ran back there and kept mining while he killed a lot of other miners in order to reduce the miners to be able to put is alt in (Nunu himself is VIP). Gnasher The Menace (Tadgee) does this a lot too. He comes around, destroys the base with his Gluon Gun/ACS (as seen in the video below) and proceeds to kill miners for his alt.
I get all the reasons why this keeps happening, I've been told by an admin: it helps the economy, stops gem making for a bit, etc. But the thing is, this is not someone who wants to "help the economy", he wants a spot as a miner. He uses his alt to put the hits, then he takes it. Sometimes they are ducking, he doesn't even check to see who it is, as soon as the hit comes he shots, obviously knowing that he already wanted to kill this certain guy. He killed around 5-6 people. I died at the end of the video, not even knowing by who, pure RDM since I didn't even have a hit.
Please, I know perfectly how most of you will react, with stubborn comments. But I think it's very unfair that people buy VIP and support ZARP to be able to get the jobs we want and then it feels like Zarp doesn't care back, because this is not even something that's done with care, this is blunt loopholing RDM. Put a hit on this one, put a hit on that one, demote them all. At Minute 5.15 they literally told Clarky to put them as miners or they had to kill the miners to get a spot. I bought VIP because I didn't even consider that a viable option. How is harming everyone and their fun a viable option to buying VIP and be able to get a miner spot? This should be against the rules, if you can't be a miner, you're a drug dealer, or a cop or anything else. You don't stop the guy who got there first so you can take his place, it is not fair at all.

This is why you mine long before an update; while i totally disagree with miners not being killed through hits or otherwise, there should be a little bit of control with the hits.
Possibly making a timer where the hit has to be finalised stopping people from claiming it instantly or by informing the player he has a hit, much like the wanted system.
