Yeah, we were really looking at cutting the tl;dr's in the Adoption Center's rules a good amount because newbies don't really have the time to read all that. As for the mentor applicant rules, know that they aren't Word of God all the time, Hikari. Like if you become really really helpful, show mentor quality and all of the NU/W mods at the time agree, then past infractions wouldn't even do much to that, because they don't always represent who you are at present. I always thought past infractions were just there to help you become a better member in the future. Back to the mentor applicant requirements, it might say that old infractions are investigated, but it doesn't say that having old infractions screw you from being one.
