Tom, that's simply not true. I don't know where you got that idea.
Admittedly, I cannot cite specific examples at this remove, but I was
personally witness to *LOTS* of people getting lordships that they
kept because the old lord was seriously wounded or imprisoned and
lost his position, at least a few Dukes, and plenty of Council
positions--including Rulers! Heck, I was some of them ;-)
There were certain realms where certain positions were "designated"
for certain characters (or, worse, players), and whenever they lost
their position, they would get it back. However, that was *not*, in
my experience, the rule: it was the exception.
And even if it *was* the exception, rather than the rule--even if my
experience was *not* typical--there most certainly was turnover then.
There is practically none now.
I understand your desire to get rid of the placeholders, but this
solution really, honestly does not work: it makes things worse. From
personal experience.
