Yeah, for those, we have fan project leaders (meaning you can post to the front page directly) and Gurus. The Gurus were decided long ago and are sort of tribute positions to certain members for helping build the Compendium. GrayLensman helped author tons of ideas, Aitrus was really active back in the day, and Leebot forwarded the idea of Time Error (which warmgun had previously tried to explain before disappearing; he was the former Guru of Time). If we had elections again, I'm sure some big names would become the new generation of Gurus. Chrono'99 would probably take reason...DBoruta might rank in time; he helped a lot in that area...life, not sure...and there are of course people I'm missing.
But there's a lot to be learned here. These guys contribute thoughtful analysis and go about it by sticking with canon and common sense. This makes the best work.
