Election for unopposed candidates

I'm happy to support this referendum, but I do have concerns about the system. It has been pointed out that under our current rules, or these ones, a group of individuals could join CZ with the intention only of electing each other to various official rules and "taking over". Our user base is so small that a handful of individuals could outvote it if working together, so I think a major revision of what is meant by "good standing" is needed, as well as a way to recall ineffective officials, especially considering how much time has been allocated in the past by the councils wishing to choose their membership.
