SamuiBond Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 BambinA. I bet DingoJoe will invite (check Samui, Phanang...postings for reward for business idea) you to a boat trip with all booze food (afterski also) should you be in Samui as reward. hel_l, you can fill in my place since I won't be able to make it.

My point is.. you all TV members deserve to be stars as you guys contribute your acknowledges and experiences. And this is exactly why, ignoring the people who have problems about trangending, or who are insecure in their own small lives, or do not want to add their honest experience about life in Thailand, or can add nothing of value, do not get a look in. I am completely and diammetrically opposed to your lifestyle BambinaA on a personal level to be honest, but as somebody who only posts only sensible, useful and caring views you have my support. Ignore the over sensitive and carry on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mossfinn Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 BambinA is our winner but we would like your suggestions of runner ups that have helped this forum. Vinny in the Visa's Section, unquestionably Knowledgeable, always helpful, humorous when required, but most importantly, always succinct and to the point and never wrong. Being amusing alone will not be enough to pass the grade. Even so, I think Kayo should get a vote, for the closest impersonation of Walter Mutley I have ever seen Moss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crow Boy Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 After considerable thought, many a beer, some ribs and nachos the moderators and admin have reached a consensus. The following members have been recognised for their contributions to the Thai Visa forum and our members. Most of you will not know all of them but all of them have helped many of you. They are: Crossy Sriracha John gburns57au Reimar Firefox DavidHouston Scott Lite Beer BambinA is the Thai Visa Member of the Year but these people are very honourable runners up and deserve our congratulations. Each has been sent a PM and will be given a prize from the Thai Visa store. CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CB Not that I have any disagreement with the chosen prize recipients (I think they are all worthy for a mention, I know I have seen most of them being very helpful to other board members), how about having some input from the board members as well. Wouldn't be that hard to set a thread with a voting option, say three votes where you can only vote the same name once (wouldn't want some people voting for themselves three times now would we ). Mods votes have a weighting function, bad behavior earns de-merrit points and admin has the final say. Fair? Cheers, Soundman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siamesekitty Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 (edited) congrats ka p'Bambi! and also thanks to all other posters (including mods, some of the most helpful posters!) that have made informative, humorous and/or thought-provoking posts!

Guest Reimar Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 First at all congratulation to BambinA and all other contestents. Not that I have any disagreement with the chosen prize recipients (I think they are all worthy for a mention, I know I have seen most of them being very helpful to other board members), how about having some input from the board members as well. I do believe the systems as it is is ok! By an amount of more than 55,000 members it would be an kind adventure to choose a "Winner" and others! And I do believe that the Admin's and Mod's are the only persons which are able to choose from that bunch of members those members which should be honored a bit!

And I do believe that the Admin's and Mod's are the only persons which are able to choose from that bunch of members those members which should be honored a bit! The system is fine & working well. However, I think you may have missed my point that board members should have some input into a "board member of the year" award. If that is the way admin want to go next year, I am sure the software could handle a voting function within a specified time period & also use additional parameters for weighting functions however admin sees fit. Only a suggestion! Cheers, Soundman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Reimar Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 However, I think you may have missed my point that board members should have some input into a "board member of the year" award. I don't think that I have missed your point but I believe you miss my one (may because of my bad english?!)! Ok again, on an forum like this one with a lot foren and subforen and more than 55,000 members who will be in an position for to choose someone to be honored? From my point of view the Admin's and the Mod's only because that's the only person's which having the most infos available about every members. Or you think you have?! Or may you like to start an kind election like the one from Dec. 23. 07? Be honest, it isn't possible to start like that on an forum! I would never ever suggest some like that! And have you even think about the work which need to be done if you want to start some like wat you want? Ok, if you're willing to "pay" for that and even do the work as well, go ahead! But who should choose the candidats and how many and how you than would proceed with the real "democratic" election? May you're dreaming a bit and it's better to start to thinking to first how much time, how many members, how much paperworks and so on need to be done to get such things started! And than tell me how you would controll such election to be fair?! IMPOSSIBLE! Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbojangles Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 (edited) However, I think you may have missed my point that board members should have some input into a "board member of the year" award. I don't think that I have missed your point but I believe you miss my one (may because of my bad english?!)! I'm not arguing either for or against it but I think all Soundman is saying is something like what football have. They have the official "Player of the year", which is voted for by the big wigs in the sport. Then they have the "Players, player of the year" as voted for by their fellow footballers. Many footballers actually regard this in higher esteem, as it is voted for by people they are playing against all the time. IMPOSSIBLE! We have put people on the moon. NOTHING is impossible. It just may take some "thinking out of the box" and doesn't need to be complex. Off the top of my head, something like a thread that is only open for say 2 or 3 weeks. Anybody who wants to nominate people can nominate upto 3 people, by just putting the names of the people they are nominating, in a post. You could either count the numbers up and the one with most nominations is the winner. Or it could go to round two, with the top ten nominees put in a poll. The poll could then be attached to the ThaiVisa newsletter that goes out to the members, allowing evryone to cast a vote.

Guest Reimar Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 (edited) We have put people on the moon. NOTHING is impossible. It just may take some "thinking out of the box" and doesn't need to be complex. All of that people involved was getting paid!!!! All Admin's, Mod's and Members of ThaiVisa do NOT getting paid!!!! I think that's a big difference!! And on the end 98% of all of the votes want be objective because 98% of the members din't know that much about every Members as the Admin's and Mod's! And about the Footballer of the year is it that 100% of the voters know all the games played and all of the Players! That's even a big difference! This is my last comment to this points and I think I've make my own position clear enough. And I thinks and believe that the system as it is is true and correct and the only one which will be as objective as possible. Cheers.

Momo8 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Lol Reimar you got a gong,what are you complaining about?
