Tyranny by Majority

Ever find yourself wishing that we could exercise mob mentality?
Ever wonder what it would be like to rule this place through Tyranny by Majority? Or better yet turn this place into a pseudo-Survivor Island and have a poll to kick out really obnoxious posters that mods are allowing to run rampant?
It would work like this: someone makes a thread with the crimes the offending party as committed; serious enough that the person has isolated themselves by being a complete waste of web space and added nothing to the overall forum.
The population of NSG serves as Judge Jury and Executioner through the power of the poll! The mods can then decide if the results are grounds for enacting the will of the people through tyranny by majority. After all, it has been pointed out that this place is like a Psychotic Dictatorship. :)
Good idea or...?
Poll to be included as everyone knows, your vote doesn't count unless you're part of the majority.
DISCLAIMER: this is meant in jest. Do not flame anyone directly please. This is to make a thread on a different topic.
Dear god no, most people are incredibly stupid. If anything a semi-benevolent oligarchy works out so much better. Probably why NSG works and straight up representative democracy doesn't.

Hell fucking no, I stick out too much from the crowd to be able to survive in a mob society.
No. The removal of a poster should be in accordance with right reason, not in accordance with subjective evaluations that are fickle at best. And come on, it's interesting to see the kinds of nuts that go on this forum. :D
