We already have a set of guidelines by which a TalkBoard member may be removed by a vote of 6 of the other TalkBoard members. I think that is sufficient to remove someone who is engaging in gross misconduct vs. removal due to being unpopular. Furthermore, a TalkBoard member may be removed by Randy Petersen if the offense(s) is particularly egregious, warranting expedited removal. Randy can also overturn an "unpopularity contest" vote, though I don't see that kind of vote happening from TalkBoard.
