I have decide to start a new thing called member of the week. Each friday a member of the week will be decided. You can post who you would like to suggest who the member of the week is and Wedenesday I will make a list of all the people nominated and you will post the name of who you choose. Then a member of the month user will win a trophy to be displayed in their signature. Okay post you you want to nominate here now!
Thanks, coolg35748!
Moved to the suggestion and feedback forum for discussion Edited by Metalman

I nominate dsking as member of the week because I feel that this member has helped me grow as a coin collector and informed me on stuff about coins that I would have never know. Thanks for the help dsking you deserve this nomination!

Hi coolg
If you would like to run something like this and are prepared to do so, I would make two suggestions .
1 Post this in the contest area.
2 make sure that your award is approved by the Mods and admin before starting the Member of the week award .
Lets see if any of the other Mods have comments before beginning ,,OK?

Ditto to the comments posted by metalman. As an initiative it has merits but the following issues need to be resolved: 1. 52 weeks in a year and on top of that 12 monthly contest as well that makes a total of 64 contests...who is going to administer it  2. What is the criteria to nominate a person 3. A signature "throphy" has been muted....who is going to design it These are just a few issues that I can think of at this stage...I am sure other members will think of others. |

I am going to draw up a user tropy with their name and have what week they won. The winner of this week will have their name and week one. There will not be a monthly one. This is not a contest just to let someone know that they are user of the week. I will administrate it (spelling?) The criteria is the user must be helpful, nice, and active.

One problem, like stated before 64 Little trophies?
Isn't that too much. The whole forum will eventually be filled with them.
But I still Like it!

No thats not too much. We have 1,000+ members and only 64 of them will have these. I am working on something to stop counterfits or fake trophies. Hopefully no one would do this. Please nominate people so far here are people that have been nominated.
1.dsking
2.coolg35748 (yes I can be nominated)

Before everyone gets carried away, there is one little protocol that needs to be observed....and that is courtesy.
Susan (Forum MoM) and Bobby (Forum DaD) are the owners of this site and they must be consulted and permission given before embarking on a project like this. To do otherwise would be disrespectful.
The formation of the Knights, the running of each Giveaway....all sought permssion and it was given before we proceeded any further.

Hi coolg Im in agreement with Lim, this project Idea has been presented and must now go through the process of being discussed and sanctioned by the Administration and Moderators. In comment to your above post,, If something is given away and it is called an award it is considered a giveaway, whether or not it has monitary value. Rick |

I agree with metelman and lim. that before you get to involved in this make sure to what tell bobby and susan get back from there other house and let them help you wiht this idea and let them say if you should do it or not.
Also I do not know how well it will work, you do not want members to get there felling hurt by them thinking they are doing alot on to add info but if they are not nominated then they may feel like there post are meaningless. also there are some who only post once in a while but they are alot of help just with there one or two post a week. so it is hard to say who is the member of the week to hard to judge. also if someone is interested in only US coin thsy may not see a member who collects canadian coin they may be a the member of the week but may not get votes since who ever nominates may not look at that.
Just my opion on this but before you go to deep in this what tell mom oks it. And I agree it should ran under contest.
