I dunno, as much as it's for time saving and things, it just feels weird to me. Most of the times it feels like I actually am applying for a job and much like others have mentioned in a thread, when it becomes a job, it stops being fun.
I understand the distaste for lengthy application processes (though most aren't actually too long!) because, though they can actually save all parties involved time and trouble in the long run, they can be a inconvenient and off-putting, but it's a two-sided issue! When running an FC begins to feel work, it seems the best way to deal with it is acting like a boss.
