Changes

Defining what is in and outside an area hosts duties is complicated, and often subject to discussion/debate.  Since Area hosts already have full membership for free, I suspect that few area hosts would be interested in acquiring member points, as the provide little to know benefit. The only other benefit in having member points is being able to transfer them to other members.  Since area hosts are listened too when they request member points for members, This benefit also seems moot,

Overall the lack of benefit to area hosts, and the vagueness of an area hosts realm of responsibility, I'm opting to nix the discussion altogether.  That said, If an Area Hosts comes up with a good reason to change this, I'm listening.  I mostly just don't see the point.
