The logic here that winning a popularity contest (by promising things that cannot be delivered) to a body that refuses to police it's own, breaking the community rules, etc is "good enough" is simply mind boggling.
I maintain that a 30-day suspension upheld by Randy should be grounds for automatic removal of an Ambassador, and I daresay I've yet to hear a single rational counterpoint. The implied argument that someone with one or more suspensions from FT of greater than 30 days would make an OK ambassador boggles the mind It's transparently self-serving.
I find it remarkably convenient that you challenge us to provide a rational counterpoint that involves a subject that cannot be discussed here. Quite convenient.
