The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
It's about that time again.
Most of you know how it works by now, but for those who don't - every three months (or so ;)) we hold an election to promote one of our regular members to Notable status. Notable is a position to honour that user's contributions to UKchatforums.com - they don't get any further rights or abilities within the forum, but their status is changed and their name is written in gold to draw the eyes, respect and jealousy of the purple Regulars.
On the day (Thursday 11th August), an official thread will be started by a staffie (most likely me) where every Regular member and Notable will have one vote to cast for who they want to see elevated to such a lofty status. Newbies and JATs will be unable to vote I'm afraid.
Last election we also held a vote to demote someone from their position of notable back down to regular - while this went well, we've not yet decided whether to continue this new, possibly cruel addition to the elections. If you have any thoughts on this, let us know here and we'll make a decision before the day is due.
Til then, mark 11/8/05 in your diaries and make sure you're here for what may be the most important vote you'll ever make.

You can't vote for yourself, and he isn't going to pick her, it would just be a sympathy vote ... I mean ... something less insulting
Your other half won't be too impressed after she nominated you.
I just picked those people for the following reasons.
Stryke: I've actually seen him around and he's one of the better posters about when he's here.
Light: As above, plus I love his rantings.
Matty: Well, I just love this little guy.

I think it's pretty much certain that one of those will get it.

People are saying it's making the Notables more exclusive by not increasing the numbers, where it's really just stopping them becoming any less exclusive
So, yeah, I agree with Joe. Two to go. Starting with him ... I mean, with 'Sniper'

Keep the denoting notables system.
In fact, this time we should get rid of two. Yes.

No need to make it too obvious that you want to be one :p
Why does everyone want to demote The-IronFlame (as S-scope/Sniper is now) when there are people like Insane Bartender ( R.I.P :'( ) that never come on here anymore ?

Bah, being notable means nothing nowadays. I remember when being notable meant you got to sit in the towers smoking cigars with tonty plotting world domination. Now..phhft, things have gone downhill since Loki and Valves have left.
Oh and I think we should demote another notable, (Sniper), and promote either Stryke, Matty or Light.
You mean I didn't win last time? Damn, thought I did.
Nah, to be fair, I don't "deserve" to win this thing because I've hardly posted here in the last 6 months.
No idea who should win it, this place seems pretty dead nowadays and most of the people who posted when I posted a bit more now post even less then me, so I haven't a skibby.
Edit:
Just so long as I still get my "Tim vote", I'm happy.
