You did say people could make an announcement to the community. So, that means you can run and let the people know. If people just blindly guess if someone wants staff, they might vote for someone that doesn't want it. Either I'm interpreting this wrong, or you're contradicting yourself.

Honestly, this system is weird to me. A simpler system would be some requirements for staff and allowing anyone wanting the position to apply on Apply for Staff, get supports or opposes, and then tally it up. That's how most votes on most wikis, work, right? I believe that's the system that got me promoted to Chat Mod too.
