We are allowed constructive criticism based on what you believe on how ready they are. We are not allowed to just pound in their application and say "you only have 4 hours total. You won't ever get accepted with that much." I look at time and base it on how much experience I believe they could have gotten during the time.
But how much experience can a person get from playing 6 minutes a day? That's hardly enough to get to know the community. Plus, I'm surprised that you got his ingame time, but the fact that he was last online in December.
Constructive criticism stops being constructive at a point. If you're essentially giving him false hope, how does that help him improve? Any mod playing 6 minutes a day wouldn't be mod for very long, and setting false standards to new applicants does nothing but hurt their chances of being accepted in the future.
Again, I never said to be rude. Criticizing someone who hasn't had a chance to know what they did wrong is obviously a bad move, but you can't sugar-coat things to make them think their application had a better chance of being accepted than it did.
