In all honesty, we don't need any negative categories that will just bring out the worst in people. Some people would use the award as an excuse to vent anger and annoyance towards a member and there's a good chance some of them don't deserve it.

Even if they try to make this into a joke no one wants to be labeled "the biggest douche of 2007", whether the person deserved it or not.

That's nothing...The HAWTNESS thread is truly the one that brings out the worst in people .

[BlackNMild2k1]

I knew gaming and Forum would be the bigger topics, but I never visit the main site so does anyone have anything to add there?

Also I think we should all vote on something for these categories at some point(b4 the New Years Eve - by Fri Dec. 28th at the latest) and then stick Crimm with the Award ceremony duties as his last standing act as NWR Community Manager.

Ah, come on. We could use a couple of negative ones. Maybe biggest douche is a little harsh, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't be allowed to poke fun.

Trust me, it'll be fun/hilarious.

As long as its light and in good fun I'm fine with it.

The reason I bring it up us because back on another forum that I frequent to we would do the "forum user" awards and it always ended in some sort of debate and with the crap hitting the fan because some of the members took their awards a little too seriously and some would use it as an excuse to bash and ridicule the other members.

How about "Member you love to hate"?

[Stogi]

How about "Person you wish you knew where they lived so you could WHOOP THEY'RE ASS! award."
