I mean why not?  :)

Its a neat thing, it encourages other forum members to behave.
And the winner acts as our role model.

How would you judge who is the member of the month? Popular vote? Best rule-following as decided by the staff? Highest number of posts following the rules in the past month? Eye color? Etc.

Forum members should be (and are) able to behave without having an interchangeable role model.
good bye

If we have votes it basically becomes a popularity contest- and popularity contests are ridiculously superficial and pointless.
good bye

we might not just vote, but sort of look at the candidates previous posts/additions to the forum.   

maybe the prize could be a star.....
or just the title of member of the month.
whatever it is, I support this idea!  :)

Couldn't we make something like the Niff awards that we had on the old forum?
If you do something special or creative you have a chance to win the Niff-award for that month.

No, its bad to think horibble thoughts Mr. Walrus.  :)

I'm sure you can make a anonymous voting thread, that way we wont have anything bad happen.
I'm sure people here aren't that biased.

Sorry to word this so harshly, but this is ridiculous and you should know. Stop being deliberately annoying like this.

And I'd like to add, that on this forum, we want people to feel equal. We removed the postcounts for that reason. Putting someone in the spotlights counteracts that.

If you didn't know, following the rules is a must!
