"...it would make things VASTLY more interesting."
You only need .2 more points in your ratings to become a Hub Leader. The rating comes from the numbers of your postings and how others rate those. I've given you five starts, as I have many others here.
By the way, I am reminded of someone kicked off this board who, I firmly believe, ordered certain others to downgrade HKipp and me to remove our Hub Leader status.* HKipp lost his Hub Leader status. I didn't because I was already appointed to the position by Argoracom, and as far as I know, there is only one appointed Hub leader per board.
*The same person repeatedly bashed JB even after being warned he could be kicked off the board for continuing to do so. He didn't listen, so I banned him.
