Guru Awards

[Benjimin]

As I’m relatively new to this site and I dont really know who you people are, but there seems to be lots of self proclaim guru and guru wannabees on this forum. So I got this dope idea, fellow VB hooches and ho’s and the bat posse how about if we have an award for guru of the month. Award awarded to the person who post the most replies in the previous month. Name displayed in flashy colours when you enter the forum “Guru of June- Benjamin”(dream on) and at the end of the year we can then have the Guru of the Year award. Now is that a dope idea or what???

I'll try not to win it each monthhehehehehehehehe

Gurur as a title is awarded by John and James, (the admins). But we can pressure for the title to be awarded, as happened with Megatron. Currently the push is for Sam Finch to be awarded the title.

Why only Sam Finch? What about Mark Sreeves? Hasn't he done a lot? Please...tell me if I'm wrong, but Mark has helped out a lot too.

......but l haven't run across Mark on this site yet. Must get some more threads started for him to answer perhaps. People are nominating members who they have run across, therefore there could possibly be more deserving candidates who don't get a mention. Push your claims for Mark in a new thread.

John

When am l going to get my anti-Guru status?????

How about you cant win it two months in a row.....otherwise it would only be kedaman and megatron in the runnings

No gurus can win

We each post a thread, and then spend the month writing replies to them. Should got our counts up and fool John and James.....probably want fool them...damn.

I know we chuck code up on threads with really tricky bugs in it, email each other the fix, and then appear to fix them.

Or

We could try buying John off..........hehehehehehehe

I used to spend a lot of time replying to the threads in VB General but now I skim through them looking for ones with 0 replies or ones that grab my attention.

I've asked several times to be able to search for posts with 0 replies but this is a feature yet to be implimented.

I usually try and repsond to the ASP, HTML and Javascript forums as a priority because there is an increasing number of web-based technology problems being posted and few people with the answers.

I enjoy the challange of solving the Javascript and ASP problems. It's amazing how much you can learn by helping others!

I've mentioned a few times before about a zero replies forum or some way to search for zero replies as well, but after thinking about it I would like to see some way of seeing if a thread has been resolved or not. Many times I've asked a question, got 3-4 replies, but have not got a feasible answer, which means a lot of people won't even look at the thread as they think it has already been answered.
A checkbox would be nice, which could be checked when a question is answered correctly, setting the background colour of the post to a specified colour for Answered Questions, so that it is easy to identify threads which have not been answered.
