New Rating System for Moderator Applications

This was actually an idea for quite a bit, and I thought I might voice everyone else who supports this idea by making this thread.
In moderator applications, when the Like-Neutral-Dislike system was added, they were added to moderator applications to judge them. You could put a like for a +1, a neutral for a +0, and a dislike for a -1. I believe this is too harsh. We shouldn't make them think that we dislike their thread, but that we voted -1 for a reason. Instead of the current system of ratings, plus the grammar rating, I think we should have 3 main ratings total for staff applications only. This means the thread only, not any comments. These ratings are as such:

• +1 - You think this person is qualified to be mod. Need I say more?
• +0 - You are neutral on this application, and are not sure.
• -1 - You believe this person is not qualified to be a mod. 'Nuff said.

I have removed the grammar rating because it technically fits under -1 or -1/2. Here's how they will add up.
+1's will give you a positive rating.
+0's and -1's will give you a neutral rating. This is because these ratings are based on your opinion. You may think that the application/the applicant is bad, but this is purely your opinion, and for all you know, other people may think differently.
There could also be a new system for an average, mod applications only. It could show whether the majority wants him as a mod, or not.
The dislikes and negative ratings are scaring new forum members away, which is not what we want. We want to aim to be friendly, not to be a bad community.
Seem good? Got something to add? Post it in the comments below.

We will need symbols for these new ratings, so I guess I could whip some up quickly. Or you guys can make them.

 

I initially wasn't sure about the 1/2 ratings. I think I'll remove those, doesn't seem too necessary when you think about it.

Hm... I'll take this into consideration. (adding it v: )
