Ok, so i'm sure many of you are aware that there are a lot of dead chapters laying idle because someone lost interest or went on to make a better one and didn't leave.
So, this idea is this, to have an option, available only to the founder of the chapter, which reformats the chapter i.e. deletes every resource, forum thread etc and allow the user to enter a new name. However, please take note that members would not be removed from the chapter and this is really the vital difference from making an entirely new chapter.
Now, from this several questions arise such as "how do we define the founder?" Well, the founder can have a unique ID and this option is available only to that specific ID. Also you may ask "What if a founder leaves, and someone else takes over and then wants to reformat it?" Well, either then is the time to leave that chapter and start a new one, or perhaps some sort of feature could be created which will allow the founder to say 'person X is now the founder'. You might also ask "what is the point?" Well, a lot's the point. I feel there are far too many drifting dead chapters and it seems a pointless waste of space.
Now it is time for your opinions, suggestions and or questions.
