Weekly Member Prizes 2012

Avatar

I think you’re being a bit harsh there. The member of the week award is for anyone who is a member or greater in post count. It is based on the previous week on the forums, not the last few years.

I think everyone who has won so far has totally deserved it and if I nominated them, I believed that they had a whopper of a week in posting.

If it was based on total post count, then no new members could ever win it. Therefore to make it fair, it is based off the last week.

—————————————————————————————————————————————-

By all means, there are plenty of people on the boards who are worthy of prizes and I really hope all the people who are worthy (and actually want a prize) get one. There is still about 6-7 weeks left in this competition and I assure you there will be 6-7 more stoked participants that win this prize.


Just saying,
You don’t win a prize by bitching on the forums or creating arguments.

Not sure who that’s directed at TJ but there is a fine line between discussion and arguments and that line is different for everyone.  I think it makes the place more interesting to have people with different opinions on things as long as it doesn’t degenerate into personal attacks, most members on here have proven themselves quite capable of doing just that regardless of how extreme their viewpoint might be.

I think you directed this at me.

and TJ just to tell you something like i said to OZ.

I DID NOT HAVE ANY INTENTION OF PUTTING PEOPLE DOWN OR HAVING A GO AT ANYONE.
( its my own opinion and i think i am in title to it.)

Please drop this conversation and carry on as this never happened.

I have removed my posts and that is it.

Wasn’t trying to aim it at anyone, I was just having a bit of a rant and trying to explain myself.

The reason it was brought up to begin with is that Dylan is a new member with only 215 posts, and I get the point. I just wanted to make it clear that I nominated him because during his short time on the boards, he has been quite active, always super stoked for the snow and has created quite a bit of good discussion including a variety of new threads with good discussion in them.

In a similar case, if static had of kept up his posts from when he was winning the new member award, I would have nominated him for a MotM as well.

I think that yourself and Nthn both have really good posts and are quite helpful on the boards. Maybe I even miss a whole heap as I tend to lurk more in social than other sections. But sometimes you also see people jump on once a week, throw a few posts and then you won’t see them for 7 days so it’s hard to nominate them as the best person for that week. (not aimed at anyone in particular)

Thanks TJ, occasionally when I’m not threatening to unravel my whole life by belting a parking cop I do strive for BW posting excellence!
