I definitely feel we need more HoS/security in general, but I think pushing mentors to play HoS isn't the way to go. Honestly just playing HoS/Security/NTSO while we have it and seeing who does well and recommending they apply is one of the best ways to get more HoS players. "Hey there, you're a good security officer, you should apply to be a HoS I'd 100% recommend you" goes a long way.
If I had to suggest a couple things about the HoS app it would be this:
1. Lower the word requirement. Word requirements are stupid and don't prove you are a good security member, only that you can type a lot of pretty words. While I understand having a basic word requirement so you don't get single word apps, 300 words is absurd.
2. Having at least one recommendation should be a requirement. Maybe even having a recommendation from HoS, Mentors, or Admins shouldn't be required. If a decent player says "hey X plays security really well and maybe should be a HoS" that should count FAR more than "i can type lots of filler words in my paragraph of text"
3. Make it more obvious that you can become a head of security. Maybe even an in game item in security with a link to the application forum.
