If you check the application process, it still asks for a division the user is active on. This is to still give the division leader/manager a saying in the members application. However dm/dl usually were always to manage the division's staff and server structure, so it really wouldn't break much of anything.
I will be writing up a staff structure page to highlight what is expected of each rank (including members) so we can know exactly what we think is expected from everyone who wants to be a part of the community.
