Hiring Process Discussion Options

[*incoherent*]

^ Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. The most obivious issue for discussion would be hiring. So why not make a seperate thread so we can all start brain storming ideas. We can also make seperate threads for other things we would like to discuss.

alright, so kiera makes a good point as quoted above. hiring is what everyone disagrees on. lets discuss what we think here.

to me, endorsements are pretty much pointless. most applicants already interact- they'd have a nil postcount if they didn't. there's no way to make endorsements what your ideal is. they will always just be favors done for friends.




i personally see no problem in a mod who's only active in a select area.

as for the join limit, it's too long. the post count limit, also too large.

put the limit at one month and 250 posts. i mean, the limits don't really weed out bad people, it just chops off a random segment. and because there is going to be some sentient being selecting these- i don't think it'd hurt to drastically reduce requirements.

as far as maturity- don't judge that. it's too subjective. the overall presentation of the application can be judged, but simply asking opinions on an applicant's maturity is too open to bias. and respectful? judge sole based on the application.



the search button, useful as it is, shouldn't be a requirement for modship. i don't see the point.

i've yet to see anyone on a power craze. and, to be truthful, most applicants are at least power hungry.

and the kind, respectful, open minded stuff... that'd make a nice mod, but not necesarily a good mod...


basically what i'm saying is scrap most requirements. like endorsements, they're redundant.

limit with at least 1 month and 250 posts, but that's all.

and even that is simply an arbitrary number.
