Last but not least the staff needs to be able to work together as a team.

That you should require the right skillset is kinda obvious, but there are more fishes in the sea then just your local fishing pool. You just need to check else where some now and then.. otherwise you keep on getting the same fish.

People feel the pressure that it's somewhat biased and somewhat unfair with the rules. If you are to ignorant to listen to that, then you don't have the right skillset for the community. Listen to that and don't just wave it off with one-liners.

A reason why Jazz2Online staff was, until a while ago, composed of a lot of DM members was that they knew each other and thus worked together well.

Actually J2O had way more members from different clans then you think. But ofcourse MERC and DL had to merge for some reason ;p

It's not some evil plot to gain as much power for the clan; it might as well be a simple side effect of forging a team of people who work well together.

No no no, the people aren't complaining about that. Yes, they believe that the current crew has their best intentions, however want to see a different color and voice there.

The voting is more about people wanting to see a change, not on voting who it's gonna be.. but putting up a vacancy and ask the people WHY they would like to be a supervisor. That's a good start, instead of handpicking people from your friends group

. I'm just saying....

I would put up something like this;
