In fairness, I think that is generally what happens. However we have trouble going from the 'I think it's a good idea to close x' to 'We'll close x'.

As an elected body, sometimes it's hard to say no to members - no matter how few. I think it's something we need to get better at. We can say it when we don't want to create a forum, but for some reason it's harder to do when we need to close a forum.
