I'm already in that camp, but honestly, I highly doubt that is gonna happen. If it was, he'd have been banned by now. So a sub-board is the next best solution.
Dave will never create an Update sub-board.
The only hope for an Update sub-board is to take over a currently inactive board. May I suggest 2010 House Election Polls (moderator: Joe Republic)? Or better yet, Town Hall (moderator: Al)?
Taking over an election related board of any kind would be wrong on principle, even if its a marginal and fairly useless one.
Town Hall actually sounds perfect.
Al is no longer active a a mod so it would be de facto unmoderated - I think that's OK, but some may have a problem with it.
So maybe Eraserhead should try to set up the next Update thread on the Town Hall subboard.
