The same guidelines do apply to all TB members.
Per the TalkBoard Guidelines, a TB member would need to miss 3 consecutive votes without notice.
While it is frustrating and annoying to others when someone does not vote without prior notice in the appropriate TB forum thread, missing one vote is not grounds for dismissing someone.
When it happens, I think it's understandable some are going to be frustrated it occurred, especially when it impacts the outcome one way or another. I'd surmise this is partly why the reaction this time has been far greater than when I did so in December 2013.
