My idea, which I am sure has been brought to attention before, is to have 5 forum funnies noted, not so surprisingly, as the funniest of the forums.

If the idea were to be sanctioned by the powers-that-be we could all vote to select 5 people, as was the case with the Notable Vote. It would mean nothing other than to put a title to their name and to point out the 'gaffers (not bosses) and laffers' of the forum!

Is anyone of the same mind with regards to this?!

The way I see it, is that if we have sections as well as stages in membership, we could encourage more people to stay and make a name for themselves...

The idea of winning a free game might be a little far fetched for some to grasp, but being a part of a gaming community might seem more believable.

I don't know if the Notables could be voted because of a mix-up in status and colour! Not that I mind as FM and Grix would probably be in my list, but if it were to be 5 fresh people, as it were, it would be a little more viable for the Notables and Staff, methinks!

It's just an idea... and please don't suggest loads of other groups because A) It will ruin the chances of getting anymore at all and B) SR will run out of colours!

It's funny you should mention that Goatboy.

I think the posts that won over the weekend were utter carp.

I should have won, despite the fact i didn't post anything over the weekend due to going home.

But still, i should have won!
