I see, that's an important distinction to make imo.

(1)As for the ban requests (that i'm seeing a lot of people mention), isn't it kinda nonsensical to base "worthiness" for being a mod on ban requests?

(2)Like you mentioned, he could just be passing it to mods/admins when online instead of making the ban req. himself (Which I don't blame him for; I do that a lot too. It's a pain in the ass for me to take screenshots, upload them to an image site, and then link them all in relevant order just to ban req some "RDm lol" guest when an admin could just instaban on the spot.)
So it would make sense for numbers to be low if he simply just brings it to a mod/admin.

(3)Plus it's kinda crazy to assume because he has fewer reports, he's not doing his job. Maybe he's resolving conflict so that there isn't a need for reports/reqs as often? That would make him an even better mod than simply making a report, yet the numbers would still be low. I've seen many mods do this, so I don't believe it's too far fetched.

(4)Conceptually, it's dumb to have a quota that you have to fill to rank up, as you're basically relying on people to do things wrong to show you're doing your job, when in reality if you're doing it ideally there wouldn't even be reports to do. Same concept as those "police ticket quota" myths.

Obviously there will always be trolls who join to just mass RDM, but at that point you just have people trying to rank up rushing to do them that beat you to it, or already-mods that just do it then and there to save hassle, both of which would keep that number low.

I'm sure @Ace1579 has not done reports on occasion, like every mod here at some point, but the amount of effort being put into this little flaw to say he isn't good enough to be a mod despite his good qualities when staff are needed at his playtime (of day) is pretty ridiculous.

1) It's not nonsense. If you have dedication to make a ban request you clearly want the server to benefit from a good playerbase, not trolls/rdmers/etc.

2)He isn't. This is a terrible assumption to make when multiple people say he is not doing this.

3) Again, He usually is not doing reports in the sense that I have purposefully asked him to handle reports before due to high numbers when I come on, and he would not do a single report. Even after I ask. This presents a problem for me because it doesn't look like he cares or wants to do his job just because "there's other staff on" or something.

4) We don't have quotas obviously but we do like to see some form of dedication or willingness to do reports to help the server out. The point is we haven't seen him do much or anything that would influence us to believe he would be a good Mod and we don't think he deserves a promotion *at this time*.
