Hosts

Topic Forum Hosts are assigned either by the DU Administrators, or by other Hosts of that Topic Forum. Topic Forum Hosts have the following abilities: 1) They can lock threads which they believe violate the forum's stated purpose; 2) they can pin threads to the top of the forum; 3) they may completely block out members whom they believe are not adhering to the forum's purpose; 4) they may add other members as Hosts of the forum; and 5) they may remove any Host that became a Host after they did (and who is listed below their name on the list below).

Currently there are no Hosts assigned to this group. If you would like to become a Host of this group, contact an Administrator.
