Okay, here's hypocrisy back at you. Look at Valdoth's back story application for how he was accepted. 

[i]With a goal in mind the young Barbarian trained long and hard before he finally made his way from the foothills of the Cahladren Mountains in the land of Thaln where he petitioned to be a member of the Iron Rose Knights. A year later he was accepted...[/i]

A high ranking barbarian got in with a petition. Barely a paragraph, if at all. That's literally it. How the hell is that more effective than what Zande did? 

Is there some sort of sickness going around making everyone nuts? Should I donate blood to help find a cure?
