BuzzJack Music Forum _ Forum News and Help _ Buzzjack Community Award Winners

Posted by: Slick 25th January 2012, 12:20 AM

Over the years many people have played a part in making Buzzjack a success.

As part of our 5th anniversary in 2011, we implemented a special award (the Buzzjack Community Award) to be given to those members who have contributed outstandingly to the site and its community and played a part in making the site what it is. It is recognition by management for a one-off or continuing contribution to the forum, given out retrospectively for past endeavours or for ongoing work for the forum.

Winners of the award to-date are:

March 2011:

January 2012:May 2012:March 2013:January 2014April 2016:Nominees will be reviewed and winners announced throughout the year.

I'm actually quite surprised that Jester has never won one of these awards. ohmy.gif

I agree. Fix it this INSTANT.

None of management are entitled to these awards whilst they are still in management!

Yes, we decided that straight off - it would be a bit dodgy for us to give ourselves awards.

I vote we all resign, claim our awards and then return triumphantly to the fold.

What a fabulous plan!

I kind of think there should be some way the memberbase can vote for someone to have one of these awards. I certainly think it's a BIT OFF that neither Jester NOR Slick have one.

That just turns it into a popularity contest, and the majority of present-day BJ users won't necessarily have any idea of who has done what for the site in the past, so you'd just end up rewarding people who are visible at the time no?
The idea of these is more of an "Outstanding Contribution" for past achievements than anything.

Posted by: Veritina 26th January 2012, 02:26 AM

Obviously it would have to be vetted by someone or the other so it wasn't just a popularity contest (which I'd disagree with anyway: let's face it, as an example, Dandy* is LOVED BY ALL but there's not much to justify him getting a Community Award). There ought to be a way that their service is recognised...

Posted by: Slick 26th January 2012, 11:23 AM

You are making me blush Tirrun!

WELL HOW RUDE.

As if it wasn't bad enough that I never received my cherry bakewell award for reining victorious (after several tie breakers from that pesky Gooddelta fella) in the KO. sad.gif

That award is literally about to be added to the system ohmy.gif

Urgh! Don't quote me when I've made a spelling mistake!

I apologise.

Posted by: Dandy* 26th January 2012, 08:40 PM

So kind Slick.

For that, I shall PM you every time I spot grammatical errors in posts. biggrin.gif

Posted by: Slick 26th January 2012, 08:41 PM

With Bray around I HARDLY think that is a likely situation.

Posted by: Dandy* 26th January 2012, 08:46 PM

I was going to block send about 20 PMs to you with grammar complaints. I got bored halfway through the first.

Why go to all that trouble when you can just read all of ramseydawson's posts instead? What a chore that sounds. biggrin.gif

Six years of copy-pasting, whinging, bad jokes, bad decisions, and repeating what the person three posts ago said counts as Community Award-worthy? Maybe Dandy* DOES deserve one after all!

Posted by: Dandy* 27th January 2012, 08:21 PM

Nah... you only get a commemorative award when you're officially OVER.

We decided that for all his faults Mikey has contributed rather a lot over the years, even if that contribution has been rather minimal recently. He did help set up Buzzjack after all.

This is a terrible way to speak about JamesP.

I is truly humbled. sleep.gif

Hurrah and well done to the new recipients of the Buzzjack Carriage Clock biggrin.gif

Posted by: Dandy* 12th February 2012, 01:40 PM

It's ALL about the KO award (which I have only just noticed).

Posted by: Slick 10th May 2012, 11:37 PM

New awards granted to the following members:

- Shoat (Services to the Lounge & Management)
- Tirrun (Services to the Lounge)
- Jark (Services to the Lounge)
- Aaron TM (Services to the Personal Charts Forum)

A sparkly new widget is added for each of the above. A huge thanks to them all for all of the work they've put into their respective forums over the last few years, and PARTICULAR thanks to Shoat and Tirrun who have each won twice.

Posted by: AaronTM 11th May 2012, 12:06 AM

Ooh, thanks! This was rather unexpected, though I DID work pretty hard running a dead horse - in the Buzzjack album chart - for a long time to be fair haha.


Well done to everyone but me who was on the Lounge mod team with me for winning too! (I definitely didn't deserve it for that forum)

Do I get ANOTHER widget? *.*

If plans come to fruition, your GREEN widget will become a GOLD widget to signify a double win (as will Shoat's.)

Posted by: ☜★☞ 11th May 2012, 09:24 AM

Genuinely AGOG! I'd just like to thank my family, my fanily, my supporters in Syria, my baby sister for always supporting me, Slick and Jester for finally caving and accepting my bribe, my agent, the guy in the cornershop who sells me my cigarettes... I hope I haven't forgotten anyone.


Posted by: Gezza7T6 11th May 2012, 09:55 PM

Congrats to all- VERY deserved! biggrin.gif

Posted by: Shoat 17th May 2012, 12:33 AM

HA I love the implication that I actually contributed anything whilst in Management biggrin.gif But thanking Buzzjack kindly.

Posted by: JakeWild 17th May 2012, 10:54 PM

ONE DAY

Posted by: Jester 22nd March 2013, 10:56 PM

Enjoy your BJ management retirement clocks biggrin.gif

Posted by: Slick 22nd March 2013, 10:59 PM

It really IS becoming a retirement clock isn't it? Lovely gesture though. Thanks happy.gif

Posted by: Suedehead2 23rd March 2013, 12:07 AM

Both very well deserved.
