@Drew: The committee was a spur-of-the-moment choice we made after the mods went to a chat one day and debated extending or lessening the bans of two unnamed users. Somehow we started talking about decisions and the like, and Obi, who was present, proposed the idea of a committee. Somehow it got approved, an election was made, (I got the most votes  ) and the members now are on the committee. Voila. :P
