I take it back. Theres nothing more Scottish than that.

Because that is how confrontation is handled in Scotland, right? :D

:dj:

Thanks for the mention :)

Firstly, I don't actually work and am taking my time getting a job that I actually want (for the moment at least) so I can listen to music all day.

As for the posting frequency, the problem I have is that Music Banter doesn't always load for me (probably 50% of the time) so when I actually manage to get on the website I make full use of it... Then again, if it loaded all the time I would probably post more :D

Translated from: An' 'en Ah will rub yer coopon in yer ain piss, ye normal Scotsman.

:laughing:

:laughing:

Aww man, way off. A+ effort with coopin though and ain, ain is an everyday word :D

I can't take credit for that. I used the Scottish Translator for that.

Sexiest Member (Male): Big3 and RVCA need to wrestle shirtless for this one.
Sexiest Member (Female): Always the hardest (don't mind the double entendre) decision because this forum disproves the long held theory that attractive people dont' use forums. Vanilla takes it (again don't think about the double entendre) this year though.
Most Inane: FlyingPig. I swear I've wasted more time reading about his bizarre living situation than doing drugs, and I think it's killed more brain cells than the drugs would have. I always thought a boarding house would be more like an episode of Hey Arnold!
Angriest Member: Hard to choose between GuitarBizarre and Anticipation. The whole jayshreddz thing definitely got those two pretty riled up, but at least Anticipation didn't try to start a mass exodus, so GuitarBizarre wins this one.

Biggest Virtuoso: Freebase Dali. I like your electronic stuff, give me more.

Funniest Member:
Best Mediator: Urban is pretty good and stopping an argument
Biggest Troll: FrancoPepeKalle, or at least I hope you're a troll because if not then you are the epitome of what's wrong with the American education system.
Most Improved Member: Trollheart. Not that you were doing anything bad, but it is nice to see you emerging from your journal and joining the fray, and it's doubly nice to see people posting in your journal. I use to feel sad whenever I'd approve an entry and see that the last post was your previous journal entry.
Most Underrated Poster: RVCA. He posts in a number of different forums, he's devilishly handsome, but I can't help but feel like he doesn't post as much as he should because he doesn't feel like he gets the recognition he should.
Most Obscure Music Taste: Frownland for me, but I don't know a lot about avant-garde so for all I know his tastes are pedestrian.
Best Music Taste: Goofle11. He reminds me of me back in like... '08 and '09 when I had my fingers in the primordial soups of every genre I could find. He's also the only other person on here who didn't like the new Kendrick Lamar album, so we need to stick together to prevent being lynched.
Biggest Music Nerd: Urban Hatemonger. Seriously every time he posts an album I look it up out of some morbid sense of curiosity and come away feeling more elite.
Best Thread Starter: Vanilla. Her drunk threads have made my lonely Saturday nights much livelier.
Most Missed Poster: 333. I've tried to get her post more often but it doesn't seem to stick.
Thread of the Year: Albums You're Digging II. There's always interesting stuff in it.
Journal of the Year:
Moderator of the Year: Pedestrian. Any vote that's not for her is a vote wasted, even if it's for me. I'm flattered, don't get me wrong, but she really puts the effort into greeting noobs, giving you guys hats, posting about music, and deleting spam. I'm mostly just in it for the larger in box and not having to wait when I click on the "New Posts" button.
Best New Member 2012: Hard to choose between Plankton and Rjinn. Plankton seems like a really cool guy and his stuff is pretty good as well, and Rjinn really managed to fit in here. I think at the end of the day I'll have to go with Plankton.
Member of the Year 2012: Goofle11. He's here to talk about music, but has a wealth of knowledge in other subjects.
Biggest Lounge Lizard: FlyingPig.
Member you'd most like to meet in real life: Vanilla, I hear she's a great Bridge player.
Member you'd most want to avoid meeting in real life: HHBH. Never before have I seen a person who I disagree with everything they say.
Biggest Wanna-Be Moderator: Tore, which is kind of ironic.
Most amusing Shoutboxer

Aw thanks man. I used to get a bit depressed too when I'd see no comments in my journal, but then I checked the views and saw them going steadily up (what's it now, nearly 80,000 views in less than 2 years? That's not bad) so I knew it was more a case of people were reading, just not commenting, which was certainly better than no-one reading at all. I realise a massive percentage of people read but don't comment, so that's cool.

Also, it's fun to be out and about in the sunshine! :tramp:

You're here a lot, you contribute a lot and you are quick on the draw with the crap clogging up the boards and consistently on top of everything. You have an undeniable presence here and they are the main reasons I threw my vote your way.

Can't argue with your comments about Pedestrian though. She has been a wonderful appointment and addition to the mod team, a far better mod than I am and gives much more of her time to the forums, in the ways you mentioned and others.

She seems to have had a very, very busy year and so naturally can't give us as much of her time as she did last year, which is why I have voted elsewhere. I have to say though that what time she does give, she continues to be creative with (and often selfless) and try to find different activities for the community to partake in. That is really not an easy thing to do here, as most ideas I could ever come up with had been done already and either failed or died after a while. I just hope that people appreciate what she does around here and it certainly seems that they do.

It is one thing to call me the biggest troll but say I am the only thing wrong with American Education System then you must be too angry. First of all, I am a real person whether you like it or not. I have my own views, my own thinking and that is how it is and that is how it should be. You may not like that because you like some members think that we must have this monolinthic thinking but I like that we are different. That means we are human beings. Pete, you need to realize that.
