Yes, the award system is peer driven.

There is no institutional memory. Members are responsible for their own posts. The Staff doesn't post for them. The Staff doesn't hold people's hands and advise them not to post something that might be taken wrong. The member does that. YES! This is a great example. Say (example only) someone...

OMG, There Is NOT a black list! I can't say it more plainly than that.

Quite right. :goodpost: A blacklist would be just too easy. "Oh, THAT member, No WAY" and into the circular file forever. The Staff here has been chosen carefully for their level-headedness and fairness and ability to rise above personal conflicts, just to name a few qualities. No, each...

There's not a way to edit, unfortunately. You can resubmit the nomination and add in the notes that this new one supersedes the one you submitted earlier. Then I will delete your first one.

No. :)

Not telling. :lol:

Thank you!

That is it exactly. If you ask for nominations, you will be disqualified for that quarter. Discussing who you nominated leads to hurt feelings if for some reason that badge is not awarded. It can also lead to a situation of "Oh you nominated me, I feel obligated to nominate you", which is...

:gig

Aww, you're welcome and thank YOU! :) You're welcome. :) Yes it is a bit time consuming, but I enjoy it. I think I do more behind the scenes than out front these days. :)

Receiving a badge doesn't depend on the number of nominations. Many factors weigh into it. I go though the nominations regularly throughout the quarter to check for nominees who already have the badge nominated for, duplicates by the same person for the same person, etc. At the end of the...

Alrighty! Thank you for your patience! Presenting the Quarter 3 Recognition Award Winners! Well done, everyone! Greeter @Auroradream26 Friend @Alexa009 @black_dove2 @blackdust951 @BYCforlife @cavemanrich @ChickenCowboy02 @ChickNanny13 @Coturnix Quail @Dannachic @Fanci Feathers Marans @Farmer...

Keep crunching that popcorn. Still waiting for a few more Staff to approve then I will get them posted. I think you all outdid yourselves nominating. I would like to thank you who sought out and found people who were so very deserving, but are rather quiet and wouldn't call attention to...

Exactly. we don't want you nominating MemberX for all 4 awards. They won't get it. You can nominate Members A, B, C and X for the friend award, and that is all your nominations for the month. Next month you can nominate members D, E, F and Z for Spirit and so on.

From the first post While it may "let" you nominated more than 4 total, we ask that you don't. Kind of an honor system. Keep in mind we only grant one per quarter, so if you nominate someone for all 4 awards, they will get one and you have wasted 3 nominations.

You make me blush.

I would say probably not, but don't quote me. I would think that since once you upgrade, the bookmark option would appear for your use and once expired, it would disappear.

Exactly right! Another couple of tips... Don't nominate yourself or ask for nominations in conversations, signature lines, posts threads, etc. This will instantly disqualify you. Please also don't nominate each other as a "favor". We can tell when that is happening and those nominations are...

Isn't she awesome? :)
