In reply to the discussion: **F&EL GROUP HOST ELECTION**VOTE**HERE**1 Week election [View all]WolverineDG
(22,298 posts)44. My votes
1. Does F&EL need a Host? (Yes, No) I would say "yes," even though I'm positive a host will have little to do. But a host is needed on the off-chance a post/thread needs to be locked/axed (as seen a couple of weeks ago in the Religion group--no host meant that a post that violated darn near every rule had to stand open because there was no one to kill it)
2. If the community majority decides that it DOES need a Host, who should be the Lead Host, permanent position unless resigns or voted out, as DU rules now are? I don't hang here often, so I would be fine with whoever the regulars select.
3. Who, if anyone, should be secondary Hosts? Same answer as #2.

I got a nice PM about this, and unsubscribed to another group over the host fracas.

I am lukewarm about the need for a host. Perhaps as the group grows it might be more necessary.
