Disappearing League

CUST-18 is gone now. Even though it was on the brink, there were still people interested in it. I am still looking for it, and I did not abandon my team. Also, the deadline was a long time in the future. I had cut a deal to try to save this league, but nothing ever happened. That might make sense if the other guy had been prevented from joining it. Can JDB summarily dispose of leagues he might not want?

Better still: MFN needs to allow a league admin to kill a league.
Saves the server space, saves people from joining leagues "too long in the spin zone."
Bonus points: Refunding credits if a user created league never opened/started/drafted.
Edit: once upon a noob, with my first team, I joined a league unknowing of spin requirements. I waited. and waited. and waited.
I quit it.
Yet I do love football...
Now the bad part: For my 2nd team, I was unaware of how a simming league works, and blew 2 weeks thinking I had nothing to worry about.
...and the AI destroyed that team's cap to the point of me abandoning it in disgrace, apologizing to the league for sucking so much, lol.
Not the 1st 2 tries @ MFN anyone wants, and not an experience that encourages many to persevere as I did.

This was a custom league, so JDB was the admin. There would be a financial incentive for him closing it down in favor of a private league. Besides, he would not have to play GM any more. More money for less work would seem like a no-brainer to me. The only downside is that he would be a weenie to do such a thing, but there's no law against that. I would only ask that if something nefarious happened, then I should be told, instead of finding out that my league had summarily disappeared.

Edited: the last sentence was kind of confusing.
