Still no member of the month here?

[JDgreen]

I can't believe you said that JD! :confused3:
Down here, we call that showing your A $$.:mur:
The mans entitled to his opinion and it's true, it's not needed it may be desireable to some but you have to agree we don't need it.
Now tell me about my low post count and get it over with.:tongue:
Good luck with member of the month...you've got my vote

Disagree....you tell me why we don't need it...!!!!

I see all these NO NO NO opinions like a reverse group of yes-men but none of you can come right out and tell me why you oppose the subject.....

What would be the reason that we do need it? I oppose it because it serves no purpose and has no meaning.

If you want to find out about other members and peoples interest just visit their profile (seems simple enough to do) and if the information you seek is not there, it's probably because you don't need that info about them in the first place.

If :
NOT needed....................
is Not enough reason how about...
It is NOT WANTED....


& if it Ever becomes a Required part of LMF .. It SHOULD be "NEW Member of the Month"

There are plenty of members here that do share information along with Help with others... And a lot More that DO NOT wish to paste their Personal lives, like so much graffiti on the walls of public forums...

When anything is added to these Forums, those additions are mostly positive with a minimum of negative baggage...

Please understand I don't oppose it. I mentioned that I felt that it's "not needed". This is apparent and evidenced by the fact that this forum has gotten along well without it. This opinion does not indicate that I or most (except Ric) who posted, opposes your idea. I don't think I heard anyone voice that opinion (except Ric) , but I haven't been around that long and my search wasn't all that comprehensive.
I think that if anyone opposed it, they would have said "I oppose it", I can't and I won't speak for them. I am merely giving my interpetation of what was stated.I think we know that Ric is unhappy with you and he has his reasons
I can't even think of a downside to your suggestion, but I assume that there must be one as it has been brought up before and has yet to be implemented. If you want to know how people feel about this there is a way to find out. And if you want to be member of the month, why don't you just start a poll?
If members want for you to be member of the month vote "yes" or not vote "no"
I seems to me that by continuing to ask for this award will only diminish it's significance should you eventually recieve it, so I guess I'm suggesting that you just let it go for now.
It's apparent this means a lot to you. I'm sure that eventually you will be recognized for your contributions here.
Remember: it's easier to get forgiven than it is to get permission

WRONG!!!!!

I proposed it mainly because over on TBN, the M of M is featured in a profile that tells you about them and their interests.

Well, for ONE thing.....This is NOT TBN !



*(even tho they have the same Administrator)

 

[Sammy the Red]

Here is another newbie butt kissing....so what do YOU know about M of M in the first place? Just parroting, IMO !!! :thumbdown:

Butt Kissing ! ... LMAO ... Ewe are too funny ! :biggrin:

I fail to see the signifigance of it, JD - your postcounter/profile tells people how long you've been here, and how active you are. People can make up their own mind as to whether your contribution is worthwhile or not. A title like that just would make the recipients puffed up, and the non-recipients feel cheated. Sorry I can't back you up on this one - I am also in the "not needed/not wanted" camp. I see why you would want it - you are as active on TBN as you are here, right? I can see why you'd be used to it - just like I'm used to a chatbox and other things now that I'm in a different style forum as well as this one. But, as has been said before, this isn't TBN or RWG, it's LMF, and that doesn't mean it's TBN-lite.

I hope it's not cause you're envious of that title (like the one CTF got from TBN), and think you'd have a better shot at it here. An award won't make anyone's posts more readable IMHO, or make their opinions any more valid than any one else's, or give them any more weight in this forum. I know who's worthwhile around here and who isn't, personally - and I recognize your contribution to this forum all the time (as do others). So I really don't see the need for extra recognition. Just my thoughts on it.

I remember when Muhammad said he'd put it in (in a glancing kinda way) - but I remember him saying a lot of stuff that never came to fruition. Like a M to M sales area, or an advertising section, or editing bad language out of posts that have it. Lotsa talk around here, so I don't put much stock in it.

My 2 cents on that, too.

BTW, I hate to do so, but I agree with Ric in the point that anyone can read your profile to see all you want them to know about you. If someone doesn't know enough about you still - you have over 2,600 posts that leave little to the imagination, my friend. If they still don't know enough - they must be a stalker (and MOTM isn't gonna help them a whit!). :wink:

WELL WELL WELL, I remember somebody here that kept pushing for and pleading for a Murray Forum....

I don't have a Murray, never will, but was I critical of those who wanted a Murray Forum.....NO

If you DIDN'T want one [a Murray forum], though - you most certainly wouldn't have kept it to yourself. :tongue: What you are suggesting will cause just more contention than is already here, that's all, JD.

We have a lot of hate floating around here lately - and I think a MOTM would certainly not make that any better, do you? Besides hating you (or me or anyone) for illegitimate reasons, they can also add jealousy to the mix. Very caustic. I'd just as soon see it avoided.

We could just call you "postmaster general", and get it over with......:laughing:

I see no hate, no jealousy, no ill will, no rancor, general dislike and discord, perhaps....hate is the wrong expression.

I don't mind if someone attacks me or tries to goad me, just expect to get the same in return.
