The only way to get rid of a host in a group like this is for admin to step in, them to resign, or a host above them to kick them out. I don't see any of those three things happening.

But, yes, new blood would be good.

You have a point on the intended dynamic, but as I said, new blood is a good thing. darkstar3 Apr 2012 #10

I'm cool either way. ZombieHorde Apr 2012 #11

I think regular elections are a good thing, but after only 3 or 4 months, it's a bit soon LeftishBrit Apr 2012 #12

I can't speak for everyone, but I would like to think we would resign our posts right after ZombieHorde Apr 2012 #15
