Maybe I'm wasting your time, and I'm sorry if I am, but please just hear me through on this.

I think it could be a pretty neat idea to have some sort of awards once a year. The bungie.net awards or something, where people nominate people for categories such as "Most helpful member", and people vote for the winner. The winner could get some sort of badge or something.

You could have a dedicated forum for voting the awards and when the voting polls are closed just close down the forum until next year.

The awards may deffinetly be a good deterent to flaming, because no one would want the "Meanest Flamer" award. Even if negative awards wouldn't really work, I know awards such as "Most helpful member" would get more forum goers helping people in need instead of insulting them.

Please post on what you think about this idea...

We could also blacklist people who break the rules by putting political commentary in their forum signature...

*AHEM*

But it's funny! Lol, alright I'm sorry. I didn't know this was too much...

Want me to change it?

P.S: What do you think of the idea?

The *AHEM* wasn't enough of a hint?

Do I actually have to blacklist you to make myself clear?

Hahaha. Well good luck with the sig...

Hmm. I don't think turning the forums into a yearly popularity contest would help, but I'm interested to see others' opinions.

lol, this is getting interesting...i want to know if he'll actually change it today, or if the countdown clock in shishka's computer is going to explode him to hell.

You people have just sent my sides into orbit. A bunch of MLG try hards sucking the dick of some supposed pro half the thread hasn't even heard of. Classic.

I would think that trying an award type would be a neat idea. The problem is if you try to do a vote then the results would not be accurate. People would make multiple accounts to vote for the person they like the best. The best way to make the forums better is to lend a helping hand to those that have legit questions, to ignore flamers, and to report problem threads to the mods. Eventually if everyone follows that then we will have a better community. Then we can put Shishka back in his cryotube that says "Break Glass in Case Of Forum Emergency".
