But the original Avengers organization had a charter that government membership of the Avengers, so I am not deciding anything as I did not remove him from membership status, just pointing out that the rule that tosed out Rage should apply to Darkhawk it just has not happen and that is membership from a readership stand point is in question (knowing the charter) and in universe his membership has not been questioned.  It brings us back to you (and the others) deciding that the by-laws don't apply, the text of Cap. 349, the Avengers Ann. ending Evolutionary War, the exist of the West Coast team at that time, the text of the Marvel Handbook entry on D-Man do mean a thing as these are "providing the information of WHAT IS" regarding D-Man while you and other other SUGGESTING what should be.
