I'm a master and I agree these changes are needed badly. I run a website as well, and we vote to reform the linkshell when we have a huge list of inactive players, my active members hate doing it...

-Promoting/demoting/ousting online members no matter where they are.
-I can understand them being online for the above changes to be made, but... maybe (for the inactive members) let it be allowed to oust them if they have been inactive for a long period.
-The cap is ridiculous, atleast to me. I don't remember there being a cap in XI, then again, you only saw members who were online in the linkshell list.

If linkshell administration was set up the same as XI's, I don't think I'd have any problems.

Regardless, changes are desperately needed for easier ls management.
