Why is humitek drywall cracking at the joints even with fibretape?

Fibretape has little, if any, structural integrity. If the house frame moves then more than likely cracks will appear. You would have less cracks by using drywall paper tape.
I disagree,, I have been installing drywall for years and , yes paper tape is a better solution but fibre tape has a lot of integrity,, if your joints are cracking , then you have a real problem with structural movement, and/or,, the drywall has not been screwed off properly. I have done many jobs with both and have not expieranced any cracks at the joints at all,, could be how it was applied??
