This was actually one of my primary motivators for calling for the
disbanding of the proctors, as KingTaco and I had already had several
discussions on the new list and I felt having a larger pool of potential
"proctors" helped us out much more than the small group ever could do.
Plus, the Council failed the proctors.  I don't mean by disbanding them.
Hopefully, they'll see in time that it was for the best.  We failed them
by not providing a better direction and clearer goals *before* we sent
them on their way.
