I know it's an old thread, but this is a pretty cool idea. I'm surprised no one has really continued running with this. Perhaps if we got some more people involved to get the ball rolling and added a lot more categories? I was thinking... Thread of the year: Biggest drama queen: Funniest poster: The coolest poster: Angriest poster: Sexiest poster: Troll of the year: Best fight/argument: Best newcomer: I don't know... just thought it might be fun. Anyone have any thoughts?
Forum awards are usually an annual event that takes place at the end of the year. One compiles a list of traits, such as most kind, best signature, posts too darn much, etc. Voting can take place in the thread and/or through private messaging. I agree that it could be a fun activity for the forum.
Yeah, seems like we should get one thread going that's dedicated to it, title it, and start now in January allowing people to put their suggestions in for the 2013 year. Then at the end of the year (Nov/Dec) we could start the official voting. What do you think?
I would like to break a lance for "The Fabulantastic 2013 HipFora Members and Administrators Choice Awards 2013." Imagine that in bold and size 7!
Works for me! Though admin are technically still members. So perhaps we simplify it for the sake of title space to: "The Fabulantastic 2013 HipFora Member's Choice Awards"? Any other suggestions, objections??
the most prestigious awards generally go by one name, like "oscars" or "grammys." this should therefore be the "skippys."
Alright, well based on a majority of 2 , I'll go ahead and start the thread for the "Fabulantastic HipFora Member's Choice Awards." In the mean time, everyone should start thinking up categories to add.
Don't forget to mention the year (2013), so it'll be easier to find the thread. Category suggestions: - Best thread award - Best post award - Most interesting poster award - Troll award - Lifetime achievement award.
