I've always been curious, how is the composition of the Arbitration Committee determined? Is it like under communism?! They come to power, and subsequent appointments are made by the ruling party! Or is it like in a democracy where the power of choice lies with the people for a certain period (in Russia, the Constitution of the Russian Federation acts as a regulator)? :)
Don't confuse power and judging.
The power on the forum lies with the coordinators and moderators, and they are under the control of the Creator.
The Arbitration Committee has many responsibilities and the need to work at any time of the day.
There are not many people who want to "wield power," work, run tournaments, judge controversial situations, be responsible for decisions, and coordinate all the work of our section. Although this is understandable, it involves too much responsibility, too much time, and it's too stressful... And there's no benefit, neither financial nor will they be awarded a Hero of Socialist Labor star...
