Chris 246 Posted December 12, 2008 Meh, it's better with just one award for it I think. Member of the Year is fine. That's a pretty prestigious award to win. I'll definitely add that.No need for many staff awards, we're respected enough as it is. Yeah, I just thought it might be a good idea to have a "Best quality of post" or "Most helpful member" award. We already have them. Well, most helpful member. I suppose we could have best quality posts award too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bear 9 Posted December 12, 2008 Best quality would be good maybe so it could encourage people not to spam as much anymore. In alot of ways I think you have covered most catergories. Maybe best avatars, mine would clearly win though. Who doesnt love polar bears? But its still an idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thomas. 21 Posted December 12, 2008 (edited) He'd best leave it open though because there could be many more ideas to come over the day and maybe even the weekend. I think the number of categories goes up each year with the rapidly increasing number of active members. I think Chris should get at least three more Ideas and leave it at that. Even though you've kinda cleared this with me earlier, you should do 2nd and 3rd place for avatars and signature, they have something to do with looks don't they Edited December 12, 2008 by Thomas.

Bear 9 Posted December 12, 2008 I think its a good idea to leave it open as we may get some great ideas, but the basics are pretty much there. There is also no need for silly awards that are just there to fill a space, so the awards are bigger this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris 246 Posted December 12, 2008 I dunno maybe penguin lovers? People who think South Pole owns the North Pole? Polar bears are awesome though. Best avatar is already there btw Alright, so far we're adding: Member of the Year Best Quality Posts (non-staff?) Best "About Me" Page I'll have a think about which (if any) awards to have 2nd/3rd place medals for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thomas. 21 Posted December 12, 2008 I have plenty more ideas, I will name a few and let others give you some. "Best Musical Taste" Award (A member who loves to talk about Music) "Most Enthusiastic Scholar" Award (A member who loves to talk about School) "Best Gamer" Award (Other than GTA) And yes, Remove Userbar Whore award, it is pointless and is only guaranteeing someone a useless, easy award.

Bear 9 Posted December 12, 2008 Its hard to give an award for best musical taste as we all have different tastes and there is no saying which is bad and good. I love my music yet most people make fun of me for it, does that make it bad? Not really. So that is a difficult award as its not very fair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azn 1 Posted December 12, 2008 How about 'Best Graphics Shop'? Although it would only apply to those who've set up a graphics topic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thomas. 21 Posted December 12, 2008 How about 'Best Graphics Shop'? Although it would only apply to those who've set up a graphics topic. It would, but it could be "Best Graphics Shop of the year" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EvoLuTioN 38 Posted December 12, 2008 "Most perverted member" "Fastest non-Staff news reporter" "Member most likely to end up being a fry cook at age 44"Wouldn't be fair to Urban who is 45ish. Now would it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Earthbound 1 Posted December 12, 2008 Haha, I suppose you have a point Evo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris 246 Posted December 12, 2008 Watch out, he has guns and shit. Lol, too many pervs here. Especially people posting bangbros pics in the hot babe thread, and also Car Stuck Girls, what the hell, one of the most bizarre fetishes I've ever heard of.

Hansui 4 Posted December 12, 2008 "Most perverted member" cool, but i don't think our decent mates here would like it though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spider-Vice 24 Posted December 12, 2008 I know who I'd nominate for that... Me too... What about Best Personal Statement? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thomas. 21 Posted December 12, 2008 "Most perverted member" I think you can safely say Chris would win that Ehm more...? "Best Dressed" according to Pictures "Most educated" "Best at English" "Worst at English" but it's Negative kind of so there is no point "Member who "Couldn't give a shit"" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hansui 4 Posted December 12, 2008 what about "most matured member"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thomas. 21 Posted December 12, 2008 (edited) what about "most matured member"? Would that not come under "Most improved member"? Edit: @Earthbound: Yeah, kinda. I'm gonna stop posting some. Edited December 12, 2008 by Thomas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris 246 Posted December 12, 2008 More realistic award suggestions please, something that members would have to work for. I'll leave this open til Sunday/Monday, and finalise the list then. We'll hold nominations after that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thomas. 21 Posted December 12, 2008 Considering that Switch Designs is no longer a "modder" on this forum, we could do a "Best Modder" award? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris 246 Posted December 12, 2008 Possibly next year for that? Not sure we have many notable modders here, in terms of actual modelling and stuff. A lot of the modders here are more texturers, config editors and such. Not sure we'd have that many candidates right now, that's all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thomas. 21 Posted December 12, 2008 It's too negative, as Chris says. He's not keen on Negative ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
