2/2
That is really unprofessional and very egoistic. It also shows that whenever you guys put in a new rule, it makes applicants look incompetent of reading rules (I know sometimes people slime out of rules but come on!). Considering the rule wasn’t there when they first applied and using it as an excuse to decline them is unacceptable.
As I mentioned before any kind of application that was in before the new changes should have been exempt or an acceptation with the new rule. Since they were in before the new rule was even put into motion and any other application that comes in after the new rule would be declined.
