You're answering all my replies as if I have not made it clear that I dont mind anyone with a high staff rank applying. I just wouldnt like to see them hold the rank if they are to be selected due to activity issues, its not that deep.I was not originally going to reply but I can't leave these terrible arguments out in the open without being heavily contested.
Because the 'perfect person' might very well be above that rank, and might very well be able to do both. This is a game after all, and people from all walks of life play it, being an incredibly effective Chief and Staff Member whilst also having a full-time job is something that can be, and has been done, Acer is a wonderful example for this.
Literally nobody said this, but whatever. What many of you fail to understand is that qualities that make a good Chief, or Command Member in general, also make a good staff member. The overlap isn't some big conspiracy like some people like to idiotically believe, nor is it the dumbest of all opinions which would be to call it a "friend circle".
There is precedent to remove Chiefs who are underperforming, this has also been done pretty publicly, this only serves to punish people before they have the chance to underperform, which is unsurprisingly not a given as many who think like this think.
This is not only not at all true anymore, nor is it a good argument, as even if it were, there would be absolutely no correlation to their staff rank, so this is a really weird thing to bring up in this context.
This is fair, but we've gone through many, many Chiefs recently, more quickly than ever, so this problem is solved. How is it logical to punish someone who hasn't done anything wrong, or punish them for other peoples' mistakes?
Again, just because someone isn't a staff member doesn't mean they aren't a new Chief. A Chief can be both new and staff!
This is a bad argument. It does not explain why "other people" are better than staff members who also have not held a Chief position.
The rank or person isnt my issue, the activity is. Its annoying seeing and a staff rank like admin, and a PD rank like COD going to waste because someone cant keep up with both (which is completely understandable), but that should be considered.
