You make it sound like I'm plotting or something, I'm just wanting past conquerors to be put under the same scrutiny as recent ones for prosperity's sake. Besides, it's only fair to those who were stripped that others who were doing similar things should have theirs stripped as well. It's not like the site has been around for 20 years or something and people should be "grandfathered" into the title due to the "context of the period". This stuff is fairly recent.
Also, I've reasoned why the ex post facto nature is necessary in previous posts.

I think everyone who has ever weighed in on one of these Conqueror disputes has some idea of what the "best and most deserving" form of gameplay is on this site and wishes that it happened to be one of the ways to make Conqueror. But while there have been many ways that people have earned that status, the list of methods is surely a subset of a compilation of those aforementioned players' wishes and desires.
That's fine and the reason why I'm suggesting that the cases be reopened and held under the same light as more recent ones and by the same processes as you would expect a current conqueror.

Spread it out then. Deal with one conqueror a month if that will be easier on the C&A team or one every 2 months, whatever is reasonable. I realize that the mods, etc. are busy and there of course is no reason to rush if this were implemented. There aren't really all that many previous conquerors and once the process is over it will never have to be done again.
