Sounds reasonable overall, though the suitability of new candidates should be triple-checked beforehand to make sure they don't just turn into more liabilities barely a few months in ^ ^;

Alissa ended up neck-deep in the drama though due to personal connections and emotional investment though, ultimately leading to the self-bestowed block that is currently ongoing.

That honestly doesn't quite fit some key personal qualities that our future Bureaucrat definitely needs (strong emotional stability and fairness of judgement among them). And as you rightly mentioned, there is no way this much accumulated issues (both within and without) would just magically sort themselves out in a few weeks.

So the only valid candidates for Bureaucrat are Omuni and Arquetion at the moment.

I think we should also set crystal-clear (and mandatory) behavioral standards for staff members in the future, so the aberrant attitudes we have witness recently no longer happen, at least not without major consequences. I'm notably talking about the insane harrassment this one admin had been perpetrating for weeks on my talk page, and eventually got a 3-months block for it.
