I think we could use a single (or a few, for roster-depth) non-host administrative host to pin things like announcements and the SOP and handle general tasks like a secretary to the group; as the person would have no actual authority, I don't see the job as being particularly desirable, don't think there's more than one or two people who would even want the job. (I know I don't)

I'm fine with none. I just think it'd be handy to be able to pin things and other such tasks.
