I may have given a -1 for Lemon to be promoted, but I feel that the way this app has been handled has been significantly worse than most people who receive a lot of -1s; I would argue as far as to say it's almost the same level of negative feedback as if a troll (My Staff App in June 2020) would be receiving.
I gave sincere honest feedback on this because I had felt that there were some extremely minor things that could potentially become larger issues at a promotion. The only one that really wasn't minor was that Lemon sometimes is argumentative, that's my biggest qualm with Lemon as a staff member; that ultimately is the reason why I think Lemon needed more time. I personally feel that people who brought up things that Lemon had thought were resolved or as I had previously stated, things that you could not defend publicly as it was something that occurred in the staff discord. That, just being blunt, was bullshit and should've been brought up privately rather than posted publicly. Not very professional, but we're humans and make mistakes.
Some of you are acting as if she's this God awful staff member who does nothing right with the way you give feedback; that really isn't true at all. She has usually always been super quick to helping out when a ping is issued and the various other positive things that people have said.
Word of advice to you all: best way to give feedback is not only hammer on one side of the field. Talk about Pros AND Cons, not JUST pros or JUST cons about the applicant. Lemon deserves better treatment than this, it seems extremely petty from an outsiders perspective to put her under a microscope. She isn't applying for Moderator; if she was applying for moderator where she would have genuine banning power, then AND ONLY THEN would I understand this level of scrutiny she's being put under. Test Mods can ban for... 1 hour with a karma ban.
I've not changed my vote to a +1, but I will say that some of the feedback that has been given has not been very constructive and just seems to be you venting frustrations in an unprofessional manner; just wanted to give my two cents before this thread is closed.
