I've brought it up at two staff meetings in a row; there has not been ONE volunteer to assume the responsibilities, even though it is supposed to be a rotated volunteer thing. I bring it up in the meetings in front of 100 people, and not ONE person volunteers. Everyone just listens to what I say and then quickly shuffle out of the room.
I guess what annoys me is the fact that people think someone else is going to do it, and so they never volunteer. No worries though, it's not like I'm busy with my projects or anything. I've only been doing it for six months straight.

You keep doing it and the rest of the members keep thinking that if they don't volunteer you'll do it again. You enable these people with your behaviour. At the next staff meeting simply mention that you are not chairing the meetings anymore and that someone has to step up. Then then leave the meeting and show up late on purpose for the next. They'll get the message in a hurry
