This thread is in general because I want EVERYONE'S opinions about this because this will include EVERYONE. Recently, or should I say for a while now, the reviewer applications section has been in disarray. Too many applications are coming in and too many recruiters are not checking them. It is time to propose a new plan that will involve everyone. Even you privates.
This new plan will be voted on in the LL, but before I put it up for voting, I will give everyone a chance to sate their opinion about this. I want this to be done in the best way possible, and that requires everyone's cooperation.
First off, all current recruiters will be demoted. We will then choose a new base of recruiters. I know that most of the current recruiters will get back in, but I want to insure that they stay active within the reviewer applications category. This also means there is a chance for new recruiters. Recruiters will also be given a special rank that will allow them to close denied applications in the category.
Once we have the new recruiter base, we will move on to the privates. Applications will be judged much differently from now on. To achieve a chance at acceptance or denial for your application, you must have a 2/3 majority vote from the PRIVATES to be voted into the next stage. This gives privates the chance to promote applications they think are worthy. They cannot vote on their own application. ALSO, IN ORDER TO VOTE ON AN APPLICATION, THE VOTER HAS TO WRITE AT LEAST A PARAGRAPH ON WHY IT SHOULD BE PASSED ON.
Once an application achieves 2/3 majority, it will move on to the recruiters. The new system means that at least 2 recruiters will have to check an application. This will also require a 2/3 majority vote. This insures that an application is looked over thoroughly and more recruiters agree on the decision.
In addition, the waiting time between applications will be extended to 3 weeks to make up for the voting process. Everything will be more thorough and fair to the privates. It won't be just one person's decision.
This system will hopefully make the category much more active than it is currently. I realize that not everyone is willing to give the privates a chance at doing something, but I think we should.
This will most likely be a complete overhaul of the current system. New guides made, new fused threads, more centers, etc. I cannot guarantee that something like this will be sure to happen but I surely hope it does.
