    Qestions like "should we tell beginners to give up if their rubbish or encurange them?" get misread by people. They read "I always tell rubish people to give up".
    theres a big difference between what you post, and especially the way you post it and what Gus posts. Theres also past history to consider here

    Go on..........

    Do you mean these threads?

    http://www.cerocscotland.com/forum/l...your-game.html

    Think you will find that after the initial same people caused some agro with them, most people saw my point and alot actually agreed with what I was saying!.

    They have been some of the most lively heated threads on the forum.

    Re: Blaze II: BFG Awards

    From another thread...
    The titles of the cattegories and what they actually mean is up for debate as well: eg if you think there is a better way of saying "Biggest Deviant", say so

    Biggest deviant - Who drags threads off on a tangent most often or/and to the greatest degree.

    Most creative spelling - Especially when the word being attempted to spell is replaced with a new word that actually fits the sentence quite well. In the words of Indego: "I do not think that word means what you think it means."
    {I'd rather there not be a "Worst Speller" - I've already won that one once }

    Meteoric Forumite - Who has made the largest impact on entry into the Forum?

    Forum Poll dancer - Which dancer (forumite) has created the best polls to participate in.

    Most Informed - Who's knowledge and experience has transcended the pages of the Forum and into your own dancing?

    Most elusive - Who have you seen pop in, say a few things that caught your eye, then vanish again?

    Forum 'Phone a Friend' - Who's head is stuffed with useless trivia and knowledge that you would have on a "phone a friend" list?

    Forum Ambassador/Missionary - Who's posts and attitude would you send into the wilderness to convert the uninitiated and bring them into the Forum? Who has done the most to promote and entice people onto the forum?

    Forum Clown - the most humerous poster and/or the one who makes light of everything when things get too serious.

    Biggest Gaffe - Not necessarily forum related, but must be dance related and involve a forumite. (With examples)

    Forum Obmisman - Forumite that is best at keeping the peace, calming things down and cooling heated arguments.

    Spurtle award - Forumite who sturs it up and causes friction/debate that livens up the forum.

    Best Thread - Which thread made you laugh until tears rolled down your cheeks or illuminated you to hidden secrets or let you know that you were not alone in your private anxieties or provoked you to think about somthing that wouldn't have crossed you mind...

    Best avatar - prettiest picture or most representative of that person, or one that makes you smile every time you see it.

    Best tag line - the quote at the bottom of registered user's post: Who's do you like best?

    Best Profile - the info written in everyone's "Member Profile"

    Forum King & Forum Queen - Belles of the ball to be crowned and have the first dance together. I recon that they should be nominated as a couple: which forumites would you like to see dancing together?

    Ok

    • King and Queen
    • Best thread
    • Meteoric Forumite
    • Funniest Post/ Gaffe (combining the two)
    • Best avatar
    • Forum Ambassador/Missionary/Ombudsman (combining two there too)



    Probably not a good idea rewarding people for negative aspects. Like post counts, bad spelling, forum stirring etc

    IMHO (<-- am thinking of making that my new Sig !!)

    You could , of course, also have the

    BFG9000 award for most geeky reference to a computer game in the BFG awards list award

    IIRC IDKFA SPISPOPD IMHO

    Thing is, the awards ceremony will eat into freestyle time – which would you rather do, watch me collect my 5th award for being such a cool dude, or dance?

    "Best Post" would be a good category though, if we can get some decent nominations, and enough voters.

    Personally I'd like to see you crowned Dark princess of the Geeks.. but that's nothing personal.. just so that stops looming over me

    She's lurking more, posting less – she's just busier at work and with a wedding and such...

    My geek credentials would never allow me to be called "*anything* of the Geeks", never mind "Dark Princess".
