The run the ATOT SS every year and put in a ton of effort with no reward. Its high time they are recognized for their efforts.


Again, we're now posting crap and posting near callouts of others.

Thread closed because of more abuse in PFI as usual 🙄

Why am I not elite?


How about you? What your excuse?

PFI is for serious dialog. Not BS posts such as this.

Next member that uses PFI to troll gets a vacation

I guess you just don't want to stick around as you just got back from a weeks vacation.

You just had to challenge a mod post to see if you really would be vacationed???

OK, I am game. You are off for a week, maybe longer, we will discuss it and let you know.

If not Elite - custom titles... "Santa's Little Helpers" would suffice.
Custom titles are harder to get than the Elite title.

You know I like you. And you know I am as caustic as they come.
But, bringing this up in such a confrontational manner likely won't work.
 
I agree with the OP, during my 5 years participating in AT SS, they have been extremely helpful! One year I didn't get a gift and they bought me a gift themselves!

A custom title would be an excellent way to show we care.

Being confrontational isn't always a bad thing. Its not like I am demanding they take away an infraction or give ME a custom title.

I'm simply asking a question: Why aren't Marty and Skip elite? I believe its a fair question.
The banhammer being broke out was a nice surprise though.

It shows the mods are taking your thread seriously 🙂

Or maybe it's just an early Christmas gift to you...

While they both may be Elite material for other things, running SS to the "benefit" of a few members isn't one of them.
My $.02

Wait... taking the time out of their day to coordinate ~50 (+/-) gift exchanges, trying to help with the logistics of the task (they are matching up people geographically to make shipping easier), providing a (granted, minimal, but still) website to sign up and automate things for the end user, manually matching up individuals to exchange gifts, taking care of loose ends as they come up, and trying to ensure items get to who they're supposed to get to...

... YEAR IN AND YEAR OUT?

And if you're concerned that it only occurs to a few members, keep in mind that they have absolutely NO limit on who can participate. Anybody can sign up... so there's the distinct possibility that they may end up with 2500 signups next year. Probably not, but still... if it happened, they'd still be doing this. And they ask for nothing in exchange.

I can think of many here who are labeled elite for far less... present company included.
 
I definitely appreciate what they're doing, but I'm guessing to get an elite status you need to provide more of a benefit to anandtech directly. Although, I have no idea what qualifies one for elite, so I guess I'm just blowing smoke out of my ass.
