Seriously though why the fuck do you open something if the only person with experience on the forums to take on the role is denied? What’s the point?
Just because we open a position, doesn't mean we have to accept somebody to fill it.

We all have our own subjective opinion and are, most likely, willing to share it privately as required.
Then why the fuck did you open the position if you had no intent of accepting someone? If you think no ones ready then don’t open the section, it’s just misleading people into putting effort into creating an application that will inevitably be a waste of time.

What?

We open the position because we need another Global Mod; whether or not the people applying meet the standard we are looking for is determined during the meeting. We don't sit there and say "yeah, let's open global mods but don't accept anyone". That didn't even happen for Jailbreak.

Richard has held a lot of sections for a long time, but he isn't the only person capable of applying y'know.
Alright, who else would you expect to have the role open for?

It isn't about whether or not there are any viable candidates. It's solely about whether or not there is a need for more people in a certain position.

It's split into two processes, both of which are done in separate meetings:

  • Do we need a new Global Moderator? If yes, open the applications. Otherwise, keep them closed.
  • Is {user} a good candidate for this position? If yes, accept the candidate. Otherwise, deny the candidate.

You're not supposed to open a position because you, personally, want someone to get the position in the following meeting.

The meetings are held separately for a reason; so it's easier for people to vote on a position purely on the basis that it is necessary, rather than doing it for another user's benefit. Once the position is open (on legitimate grounds), that's when the actual candidates should be taken into consideration.

The two processes aren't supposed to be gone through at once. And what you're asking would require us to have done exactly that.

Stop arguing because there is literally no point.

We never would open a section a year ago unless we were pretty confident in one of the candidates, not accepting anyone after months of waiting for applications to open and going through the whole motions of applying, gathering feedback, etc. only to be denying everyone is just a big slap to the face for everyone applying. Just don't open them next time?
