[FF Notice] Member of the Month Update

**Loveless** · 05-01-2009, 09:44 PM

We do choose them only because no one else steps up to nominate an individual. We've been saying since our first MotM that we're open for nominations (with back-up statements as to why they should be).

Loveless posted that...

Why don't you guys search for something usefull posted my a member and make him MoTM...Like Ivra

Leesa became MoTM? Since when?

Since the first month.

Everyone is helpful on the forums but it is kind of hard to "pick one" that should get special recognition. We only have 12 months a year and a year alone cannot even accommodate half of the helpful people here.

Anyway, we may have found a new/better approach for this.

xD This might not be very helpful but just a possible thought...

Like the nomination things.. how they have to put why they think this person should be recognized.
Have a poll that says all the things this person has done to help out the site and contribute.
But without stating the persons name.

But by doing that it's not 100% keeping the person annonymous ofcourse, which would be sort of hard to do since this is sorta of a close nit-ish site. But just a thought ^^'

Heres a thought...

Get rid of the whole damn thing.

Honestly your just turning a generally positive forum into a vicious, bever hills 90210-esque backstabbing festival.

Crap like this is just so people can feel better about themselves in superficial ways, and serves no purpose in the community other to spurn hatred of the winners. So just get rid of it all.

I think the idea is sound, in theory. It was a way to show "thanks!" to the various members that positively contribute to the community we have here, but jealousies on the part of some people did sort of taint the whole thing, I'm afraid. Ah well. Sometimes even the best intended projects get derailed.

@Mindspank--Interesting that you should say that considering there were no problems with it during the first three months that MotM was given out.
