I tend not to comment on staff applications, but I feel like I have to comment on this one. I'd like to begin by saying that I like Ace. He's never been a problem, and consistently follows the rules. Ace is a good person. However, I don't think I've ever, EVER seen him handle a report inside the RDM manager (see edit). I'm trying not to exaggerate or lie, but I can't remember a time I've seen the words "In progress by Ace1579" or "Finished by Ace1579". Just do more reports, and actually staff the server, Ace. You're not a bad guy, you know the rules, you're active, and you're calm. Just fulfill the job requirements of TMod before asking for a promotion. If you actually start taking command of the server (not in a Hitler type of way), and start handling reports, I see no reason why you wouldn't be deserving of a promotion.
Also, there is no "quota" on the number of ban requests one must make to be promoted. That's tomfoolery, and almost impossible to quantify. The mark of a good Moderator isn't the number of ban requests they make, or how much they suck up to others. The mark of a good Moderator, and staff member for that matter, is how far they're willing to go to help the members, and the community, better themselves.
EDIT: I’ve thought about it, and I do remember you doing reports before my break. However, since I’ve been back I haven’t seen you do a single report (while I’ve been on of course). Don’t get down on yourself though. I’m not trying to gang up on you, I’m trying to give you constructive criticism so that you can get Moderator.
