Man of Honour Nomination....

HangTime · 11 Dec 2011 at 12:29

To be fair a lot of people have 'arguments' with drunkenmaster, and that isn't intended as a critisism, he just tends to fight his corner a lot.

I'll nominate myself as none of you burgers are going to

.... anyway I'll pop in a vote for Stulid

By 'fight his corner', you mean he writes more and more and more until the other person gives up?

Subliminal Aura · 11 Dec 2011 at 12:39

Definitely not drunkenmaster - he's semi troll material and loves the banter.

Having said that, I do enjoy watching him fight his corner

It's quite an effective method.

The problem with posting lots in GD and to a lesser extent Motors is that your opinion of people comes from the things you read in these subforums. This means if you get somebody, I shall make up a scenario to illustrate my point, with exceptional hardware knowledge who helps a lot of people but often wanders into GD to spout bizarre conspiracy theories and pops into Motors to explain how his Golf diesel is super fast, GD/Motors people will have him down as a plonker whereas those in the hardware forums will rightly beleive him to be an asset of the forum.

It is for this reason that votes simply wouldn't work - any GD'er will get a billion votes whereas a hardware guy with a casual interest in posting random stuff in GD will get none even though really GD is the least important subforum.

My vote is very easy. This is a PC forum and one of our members has, without kicking up much of a fuss, managed to get things changed for the better this year and rightly so.

Respect you you, sir.

Were this a poll, I'd be voting for him too. :cool:

If there were a vote and i doubt there will be Gareth would be the only person to get my vote.

Just looked through some of the threads linked.

Why did some people who were already dons become MOH?

Because being a don does not stop you being a worthy candidate? well, depending on the Don in question.....

Hyburnate · 11 Dec 2011 at 13:19

Stulid. Mainly because most people wouldn't have stuck to the forums without him.

Its different rather than better. One infers a cetain authority, while the other infers recognition.

You want to remove 5UB from being a Don so he can be a MoH? Controversial.

why remove him, what is stopping him from being both

Different times - Rotty was a MoH way back in 2002 but became a Don slightly more recently than that. The reverse can also be true, Dolph was a Don for a number of years then stepped down and became a MoH later. As Castiel says there's not really a better here, being a Don comes with more powers but also more responsibilities.

You can't have both positions simultaneously although if you were a MoH before becoming a Don then should you step down the chances are good that you'd revert to being a MoH again. I suppose if someone who was both were to sweetalk one of the Admins then they might be able to get the MoH avatar but be in the Don usergroup but that would just look weird.

i think GD is the last place to look for a MOH, it should go to someone who strives hard to help people with their hardware/software and doesnt get caught up in squabbles/fanboi'ism
