Every club I have ever belonged to or flown with operates on the wishes of a majority of the members. If someone chooses to allow the status quo it’s not being a sheeple it’s being satisfied with how the executive of the club are running things.

I know of clubs that are electric only, gliders only, control line only, SAM only the list is endless. I belong to two clubs at the moment one has a limit of 50 members. Every club has the right to limit membership, refuse or remove membership and set limits for the size and type of aircraft/rotor wing allowed to fly. If you cannot fit in go find somewhere else to fly.

It’s amazing to hear so many think they are entitled. This sense of entitlement is what the problem is today. No one feels they have to earn the right to belong/join a club or organization instead they feel entitled and think everyone else should accommodate them. Not going to happen in my neck of the woods.

That's true for a club. But, if the club field is on public property then things can be very different.
