Welcome to my first poll. To answer this poll will take some time and research, so if that isn’t for you just go to the next topic now.
Since we are awarded “stars” for number of posts rather than based on the feed back from others, I thought it would be interesting to see who is most deserving of their newly attained Three Green Star, rating. Unfortunately I couldn’t fit all the 500 posters into the poll, so I choose (as close as possible) those who got the rating this summer, and are on track to post about 1000 messages per year.
I really wanted to post each of these people’s 500th post but that is impossible to determine. So go to the user profiles, review some of these people’s posts, and vote for who you think has generally the best posts. Best is most informative, most interesting, most insightful, or most helpful. Grammar and spelling are secondary concerns but still a factor. Tell us how you interpret BEST and why that author. Please, no negative comments toward the others you didn’t vote for. The 15 candidates are (in no particular order):
Hmm…obviously grammar and spelling are not major factors…Because in the initial post, Mr. Zepher, you spelled grammar with only one ‘m’…[:p] Was that intentional?[;)]
Hehehe number two. I would love to say it was intentional, but it wasn’t. After composing for about an hour, going back and forth into Word spell check, I have no idea how I missed that. Maybe I’ll fix it if I have to edit again for another reason.
I got my 3 greens a while ago. Im a few away from the coveted 1000 post mark now[:D]
Anyway, I didn’t vote. If you ask me, the most talkative people would post more posts and by statistics, more good posts. I feel that some of the people listed are holding back on us so to speak…
People will vote…just to get another notch in their “500” count!! To me, they all have something to contribute and I have learned a lot since joining. Too bad I did nothing but read for the first six months…shoulda been posting as well…oh well…
You might be being too hard on yourself. I just flipped through your last 25 or so. Not bad at all, especially on the DCC ones. You got some really good one liners too. Humor just wasn’t one of the criteria I specified…
I haven’t voted yet either. Having a hard time choosing. This did actually come from a discussion over on the “layouts” form, where we thought it would be nice if people could earn their stars based on feedback from others rather than simply quantity of posts. I don’t know how hard it would be to effect that change on this form…So this becomes a “just for fun” thing.
