Ascertaining a prospective mentor's viability mostly boils down to asking two question:
1) Do they know enough about the game?
-and-
2) Are they trustworthy with the metaknowledge gained from being a mentor?
For Chase, even if you don't know em, #1 is evident by just reading their posts on this forum. As for #2, well, it's less about 'are they trustworthy?' than it is 'are they a shitlorde?', because you can't prove trustworthiness without trust. Since Chase isn't a shitlorde and spends more time in IRC anyways, #2 checks out.
Basically anybody who's been around for a month and hasn't gotten the whole server to hate them can be a mentor.
The 300 word thing has been weird on here, though. Plenty of people have been turned down flatly in the past, while it didn't matter for other. I honestly think it should be done away with for mentors, as you're just relying on people's knowledge of you if you cut it too short.
