With so many things being unclear still, especially with the whole "Senior/Junior" member thing, it seems like the best thing for people to consider if the concept of massed intake like this is an eyesore to them, is to try and be more active on member applications. Even docking people for lack luster activity (after all, we do want members to be at least notably active) wouldn't be an awful idea if you don't feel someone deserves membership. I'd assume poor activity was the number one cause for the many applications that never received any comments at all. These changes seem more focused on creating quantity in terms of membership, so it would be ideal for current members to be more vigilant to upkeep quality. Just my 2 cents
