Please read this: /s/PhoenixForum/comments/7fet/phoenix_forum/ about:

  1. Fair Forum - more self-regulating fair site management
  2. GUI + PreVisualization - developing a better user experience
  3. Software Development - coding, beyond me
  4. Libre-Festos - mission statements for a better future free of the corporatocracy
  5. Project Management - organizing all of this
  6. MetaVote™ - for better qualitative and organized data, in a simple interface

M7 is certainly free to participate. I've even suggested he could be admin again with ultimate veto powers, but with more fair system - a system that need not wait for the next-gen forum.

Everyone would have his ear, especially his trusted team of "Peace Rangers" who are also accessible.

M7 doesn't have to hear any of this. This idea is now out there. Anyone anywhere may employ it and modify it as they see fit. Whatever comes of the "Phoenix Forum" idea, they can always use and improve on it - or adapt another system.

" Are you recommending M7 relinquish control of this site and only step in as he sees the need? "

Exactly! Almost.

I wouldn't call it "relinquishing" if he still has ultimate veto powers. I would call it trusting his well-chosen advisors. I don't think he trusts anyone, and that's his right, and he might be smarter to be extra paranoid. Especially intimately knowing how they currently operate. If it's all done in the open with proven users who check each other and give him sufficient reports to judge with (and potentially veto) then the problems ideally should be reduced a lot.
