Hello.

Welcome to the fourth annual KarateForums.com Awards. These awards are intended to recognize just a few of the outstanding (and humorous) contributions made by KarateForums.com users. These awards will take into consideration all forum activity between October 19, 2004 and October 18, 2005. For instance, users must be nominated based on their activity in this period and articles nominated must have been published in this same period of time.

Please make your nominations by sending a PM to http://www.karateforums.com/privmsg.php?mode=post&u=2715 - you do not have to nominate for every category. You can nominate for as many or as few as you would like - please go for as many as you feel comfortable with.

From the most popular nominations, the actual nominees for each award will be chosen and by using the poll system available on these forums, you will be able to vote for the winners!

So, without further ado, here are this years categories:

1. Member of the Year
This award is intended to acknowledge the non staff member who you view as most valuable to the community as a whole. Current staff members (Sempais, Senseis and Administrator) are not able to be nominated in this award.

2. Community Spirit Award
This award should go to a person whom you feel posts interesting and insightful comments that exemplify the spirit of KarateForums.com - kind, helpful and encouraging. This award is open to anyone, regardless of their skill level. Regular members and staff members (except for the Administrator) can win this award.

3. Staff Member of the Year
Basically, the same as Member of the Year, except that this award is for current staff members (Sempais and Senseis, not Administrator) only. If you are unsure of who is on staff, please visit http://www.karateforums.com/staff.php for a complete listing.

4. Funniest Member of the Year
Humor is an important aspect of the forums and this award recognizes the member who has brought a smile to your face many times. This person should have a good clean sense of humor and can be either a staff member (except for Administrator) or regular member.

5. Article of the Year
This award distinguishes your favorite article that was published in the KarateForums.com Articles section in the past year (it must have been published in the past year). Whether the article enlightened or inspired you, this is the place to recognize it. Visit our articles section at http://www.karateforums.com/viewforum.php?f=44 for a complete list of articles.

There are just two nomination rules:

1. Only one user/thread/article can be nominated for EACH award. Only one choice per award, in other words.

2. You can not nominate yourself or an article that you wrote for any of the awards.

So, that's all there is to it. Please nominate. We need as many nominations as possible. Once again, you can nominate by sending a PM to http://www.karateforums.com/privmsg.php?mode=post&u=2715 - nominations will be closed on the evening of October 26, 2005.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to PM me or reply to this thread. Please do not post your nominations in this thread.

Thank you.
