No. Nobody has put forward any alternative to simple majority.
Super majority might be a valid alternative. Consensus not, I think.

The only alternative proffered has been "the ORSC rules " in toto, without
modification.

Mind you, in view of the enormous resistance that democratic minded IDNO
members have against censoring *anyone*, even non-members( list guests ) ,
getting a simple majority to ostracize a member would already be very
significant.
