Linuxboy for Elite!!! UPDATE: He's elite now :)

A bit off the subject: but how does the title system work here? I though it was based solely off of number of posts, thus the locking of silly threads that merely padded your score.

😕
 
yup...agree 100%. linux is always helpful and always respectful and trying to cheer everyone up.


linuxboy FOR ELITE!

Elite status is assigned by the mods to those to contribute to the forums a lot. Everything else is is based on number of posts.

Thus someone with 15000 posts can be a lifer, while someone with 1300 posts can be elite.

elite status isnt based on number of posts... you only become elite if the admins think you deserve it.


oh, and i voted for yes (not only becuase it was the only choice.. he really deserves it)
 
I LOVE Linuxboy, except for the post that are far above my head 🙂

Linuxboy should be elite, simply because of his signature.

Hi doc, just came across this thread. The mods/administrators have powers beyond all rational understanding and they can bestow titles as they see fit. I think Elite means that the person somehow benefits or contributes to the community here. The other monikers are based on posts, as far as I know.

Seriously, who deserves it more than him?

Plenty of people, I'm no one special.

Thank you Marty, you're sweet. 🙂


Cheers ! 🙂

linuxboy: quit being so damn modest! you deserve it and you and and most of us know it. 😀
 


<< i agree with the sentiment but i believe that only another elite can nominate for elite. >>

Ok, I'll be glad to nominate him. Of course that probably would hurt his chances more than help them.

LMAO! yeah....we need someone else to nominate him....😛

Like some Noob that's been here for 4 months. That ought to do it🙂 It doesn't matter who nominates him and it doesn't matter if he gets it or not. He's well liked and well thought off by all. Plus it's his birthday!!! Party!!!
 
Well, speaking for baffled (since she cannot post right now) and myself, there are two more nominations for him, whatever they may be worth. 😉

but but but, Marty has been here for like 9 months! 🙁 i tried.



<< He's well liked and well thought off by all. >>


very true. he is Elite in the eyes of all of us anyway. 🙂
 
You messed up, there is only 'yes' on the poll...I was gonne vote 'no'.



🙂 🙂 🙂

j/k

Despite the fact that he probably uses linux, sure...he seems like a great guy. I vote 'YES".
 


<< Got that right. Plenty of BEvERages for all !!! 😉 >>

Good man! I love it when you're subtle like that. 😉



<< I would be thrilled to see LinuxBoy be made Elite. 🙂 >>

same sentiment here
 
I'm not a big supporter of status titles, but if anyone here deserves to be called "Elite," linuxboy qualifies.

Even when I do not agree with his views, he always has my respect.

linuxboy exemplifies one of my favorite quotes:

Every difference of opinion is not a difference of principle. (Thomas Jefferson, 1801)

Here's hoping you have a BIG BANG on your birthday, penguinperson. 🙂

~WW~
 
Linuxboy has been Elite in my eyes for quite awhile now,might as well make it offical eh ? 😀
 
Pav puts more thought into a single post than most people here do into their every waking moment for a month. He's always gracious, no matter who he's addressing or on what topic, gives people the benefit of his education and common sense, and has a general, all around good attitude. He's a great contributer to OT and whenever I see his posts, I go make myself a cup of hot chocolate and settle in, expecting to spend half the night figuring out what he's saying and get my IQ raised a few points. 🙂 linuxboy for elite!
