    Some member awards have been put to rest:
    [​IMG] Mangini-us Award

    [​IMG] Donovan McNabb Award

    [​IMG] John Madden Award

    [​IMG] Homer Simpson Award

    [​IMG] UPS Award
    Some awards were nonsensical, some did nothing but alienate members and some were just plain ineffective in promoting what they were intended to do. They also watered down the member awards as a whole. So RIP you guys....

    I'm glad the Madden and McNabb Awards were removed, I didn't like the fact people were being acknowledged for being arseholes.

    Why remove the UPS award? I thought that was one of the most rewarding awards to recieve.

    One look at the stats and you'd understand why.....there were many months where someone won by default with one recruit and they were the only person who recruited.

    And this is a nice snapshot of why this award is now gone.....people forgot what it meant and just used it as a tool to vent their agendas against members they did not like.

    Thank you Sl1m3y for making my point....

    Damn...no more trivia award? I was just getting good at it. So it basically make the trivia just for fun?

    Will those awards be replaced with something else? Something more positive maybe?

    Don't you dare remove the Pimp Award!!!

    New Award Ideas:

    Thread of the Month...maybe for the most active thread?

    The following players need awards:
    Hines Ward :icon_wink:
    Peyton Manning
    LaDainian Tomlinson

    Any way that the Awards could be archived in our profiles? For some people, you just wiped out their whole awards showcase...

    I'm still supporting the case for an LT Award (best all-round poster, bi-monthly), and the Medic Award (most helpful poster of the month).

    Guys, I am not going to add awards at this time. The awards system was too thinned out as it was.

    What about archiving the past awards?

    Man - I was on my way to getting my second Mangini Award!!

    Yisman will be gone forever now that there is not anymore trivia...and his awards...vanished! Poof...
