The same group of 30 are hosts for the following forums:

Welcome & Help
Latest Breaking News
Good Reads
Video & Multimedia
General Discussion
General Discussion: Primaries
The DU Lounge


Announcements and Ask the Adminstrators are also Forums, but are administered solely by the Admins.


Every other location on DU is a Group. Groups pick their own Hosts, and are solely responsible for managing those groups. Different rules apply, and they are not subject to the same 100% jury availability rating as forum hosts. Groups are basically on their own, although posts are subject to alerts by any DUer, and so can be hidden by a jury, which is made up from the general DU jury pool. Jurors need not be participants in that group.
