For clarity, there is only one person who run the FA feature, and that is MrDupin. He was made an admin in September 2016 and took over the feature shortly thereafter. Now, there may or may not be a circle of people working together to promote each other. The fact is, though, there is no hard evidence to support such a claim. If you or anyone else has any solid evidence, I am more than eager to see it because if such a thing exists I certainly want to put an end to it because, again, this is not how the site should be used.

Again, I want to be clear: I do not reject your claims in any way. I simply seek facts before making decisions. I have in the past (and will not hesitate to do so again regardless of who it may be) removed admin who were acting in ways designed to undermine the site and its users. Such a self-promotion ring would be something designed to undermine the way the site works insofar as featuring people and promoting users fairly.
