I enjoy having female staff because they are usually quicker to handle harassment situations than their male counterparts.

100% agreed with this, idk about the rest though

ryzif brings up great points about accountability and responsibility, and while ive been absent for the past month, i also still haven’t seen any jarring issues from lemon that would seriously make me even consider having her wait another month to improve on them, rather than having her work on them while she adjusts to an appropriately small additional few commands to learn

some of her best staffing qualities that stand out to me:
-doesn’t rush decisions
-makes her own decisions but knows to ask others when needed
-always asks questions when unsure of something
-much more sensitive to key issues that others often miss
-good at documentation/keeping track of everything
-knows how to have fun

there have been bumps recently, but these are still rooted in good qualities (i.e. having fun turning into too much fun, being astute about security turning into using too much caution), and really don’t need much more than a fine tuning and reassessment of what staff really are there for

i dont think she “wastes staff resources,” and i certainly dont think she needs an intervention or whatever in order for her to make the jump from trusted to tmod. she has strengths and difficulties, just like the rest of us, and just because her difficulties and her aptitudes are different doesn’t point to a deep misinterpretation of what staff do, they’re just ups and downs. im still confident she can buff out these bumps and make her strong points shine settling into a position of appropriate responsibility.

*i also don’t think that the criticisms being thrown at her are intended to be hurtful or anything, some are definitely reaching more than others but even on accepted staff apps there’s still positive feedback that can be gotten out of it; staff should always be looking to improve, being staff is something you’re constantly working on.
