"One new "Notable" is elected every three months, in respect of their contribution to making the Future of Gaming forum (in the Open Forums) a very special place."
Okay, I know it's only a bit of fun and basically means nothing, but let's take that statement at face value for a moment (albeit in the usual light-hearted spirit of the elections).
Without naming any names, I think that some of those campaigning are having a laugh if they think they deserve it.
So - if you are currently campaigning for votes, please take the time in this thread to explain what you think you have brought to the forums, what sets you apart from all the other run-of-the-mill Regulars, and why the hell we should vote for you.
C'mon - you want the votes... bloody work for them! :-)

You'd occasionally make jokes about being a notable, just like the rest of us would ;)

Done.
Good to hear! I was going to pop your post too, but for some reason gave up! Ah well!

Becuase I'll keep doing exactly the same as I'm doing now.
Done.
Although I don't think I'll stand a chance of winning these elections (simply because YH has been writting quality topics for ages, and Stryke is fast proving his love of gaming), I thought I'd just answer the topic anyway- I may not win, but I'll be happy with a few votes :)
So, why vote for me? Well, I'd like to think that anyone who did vote for me did so because they like what I'm doing at the moment. After all, being voted notable is meant to be recognition for contributions to the forums. So I'd hope that people who did vote for me liked my topics- although I don't have as many "jokey" topics as some, I do like to give informed judgement and predictions on a subject I love- gaming!
One more thing. I noticed that the definition of a notable was a sign of respect for doing good in the forums. But it should be more than that. Outside the forums I chat with loads of the members- I have 12 of them online at the moment. Quite a few members have their own sites devoted to gaming too- I can't for the life of me remember who exactly made the site, but "view and play" is looking very professional. These are the kinds of people who should be considered too. Ok, so I wouldn't vote for someone who did nothing in the sr forums but had their own site, but people who contribute lots in sr and outside deserve credit.
So, thankyou to anyone who does vote for me. But please, don't waste your vote. Don't waste for someone because you've been told to by a member of "the sony crew" unless you have actually read some topics buy the guy/gal you're voting for!

The question is, did anyone read my truelly heartfelt post?

Liar - you're gagging for it.
Redefine "it" please, before I argue with that.

I was only joking there is no rule about posting about wrestling, even if there should be.
speaking of elections, when is it again, we must be close!
Don't know, don't care.
