Here here!
It also shows how dysfunctional this group is .. not many of you vote!

I would suggest
1) Continued membership of this group be conditional on voting on at 
least half the tags presented for voting over say the last year.
2) Rejoining members be conditional on voting on at least 8 of the next 
10 tags presented for voting.
3) Tag voting may only cease when at least 25%? of the tag group members 
have voted and 3? weeks have elapsed.
----------------
The old saying .. vote early, vote often springs to mind. Be carefull of 
the options in No 3 .. if you make the time short and the voting numbers 
small people may not be able to meet the conditions of No 1 or No2 !!!!

Yes .. it makes the admin more complex.But it will get some to say 
something, and get others off the group. Flame away.
