That is a very good question and I'm glad you brought it up. Their voting thread is here and it has been up going on about 3 weeks now with the stickied thread still prominently displayed on their board. LINK

I'm sure that many will remember after much input was received from Georgia Board members actually a more refined process to determine expulsion of members than what was used in the linked USC thread began to be implemented for the Georgia Board. A stickied thread was made and after voting began the voting process was halted and the clear implication was this type of thing was not going to be allowed to address expulsion of current members. The stickied thread concerning voting was removed from the Georgia Board. Following this there were other threads trying to address the issue but those ended up getting whacked. Some may have survived, I don't know for sure, but I know of no threads or links that discuss what the rules actually are with respect to this particular issue, or that there is some type of limitation placed upon a board regarding expulsion of current members. In the absence of such it would logically lead one to conclude that the decision rests with the board members and the board administrator. As an exhibit the USC board diplomacy thread provides proof of that.

Having said that it appears that either (1) there has been a change in policy from what it was months ago to now permit expulsion of board members by voting (and presumably with the board admin's approval) or (2) there are going to be different standards applied to different team boards. I have no idea which it is but it would be good to know.

I think we can all agree there's a need for

Everyone is scared of the Dawgrant. They think they've gotta keep this board under their thumb or we'll go rogue & take over TD...

The fear may be that DawgRant is taking over the entire world. One poster in that linked thread referred to the DawgRant as a "glorified twitter." LINK

The fact that all of it was shutdown and people were banned for us wanting to clean up the board was complete bullshite. The fact that no one has done anything about the USC board doing the same thing is all bullshite. Now we can't even get a response from an admin on the matter and anytime it was mentioned like you said the threads were immediatly wacked yet that thread has made it 15 fricking pages.

You and I both know what the problem is. The problem is the people that were being voted on obviously made a stink about it and the admin came in and brought down the hammer on us for it yet are now not exhibiting the exact same punishment for the same thing being done in a much less organized manner on the USC board. It all seems quite hypocritical to me. I have no issue with what USC has done but the fact that we had people banned for doing the same thing is horseshite and I think we can all agree on that.
