Remove References - Dick - Sep 18, 2019
Explain your suggestion, in detail:
Remove References from the Teacher Application Format.
Explain why the suggestion should be implemented:
Literally, no teachers or staff (that I am aware of) talks to any of the references that are listed as it is and any references that are listed are usually:
- Applicant's Friend
- Applicant's Clan Member
- A staff member they talk to

the references system is a list of people you can display to vouch for you in your app so its not about talking to them

You can do that by reading their review they post, no?
Even more so, just putting that someone vouches for you doesn't mean that they are a good teacher model. That's like saying Puffitee posting an application with all of Givens attached is a valuable list of people who are vouching for him to become a Teacher.

Agreed, it encourages a sort of elitism mentality. If somebody wishes to give a positive review of somebody they can do so by posting a reply, I honestly don't even know whether references are followed up on, but it seems like a waste of time. +support

+ Support
If you know people who support your application, ask them to make a + support post on it, there's no need to tag them in the references if they're happy with you and your application.

+support.
I was added as a reference for someone I didn't know, and someone else I -supported.
It's a useless part of the template. If you're known in the community, you're known. If you're not, you're not.

Except they have to consider every member's opinion cause this is somewhat of a democracy.

But you have to read the good and the bad either way? You can't just read the good and ignore the bad lmao.
