Dear AF Members,
Please name who you feel should be nominated for AFBoard's August, 2010 Member of the Month in this thread.
We will accept names until the night of July 18th, which is a Sunday. At that point, we will take all the nominees mentioned, and place them into a poll for voting the final 2 weeks of this month.
Here is a recap of the rules:
1. A nominee must be a participating member with at least 100 posts to their name.
2. Moderators & Administrators can not be nominated for MOTM.
3. Only members vote, and not the admin or mods. However, Mod & Admin staff CAN nominate a member.
4. Please only state one person for your nominee vote. Give a reason and explain why you chose this person. If you mention more than one person, the first name stated will be selected.
5. Prior winners, are not eligible for re-nomination.
6. NO self-promotion or soliciting members for support, and please NO voting for yourself under any alias names either. IF YOU ARE CAUGHT YOU WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY DISQUALIFIED.
7. No voting for yourself under any screen name. IF YOU ARE CAUGHT YOU WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY DISQUALIFIED.
8. Upon winning, each member must write a mandatory short bio of themselves answering a few basic questions that will allow the members to know their winner a little better. Nothing personal, just basic questions. Pictures are optional, but encouraged. The winner has the option in answering these questions however they feel appropriate in order to protect their identity.
9. In the event of a tie, we will then have a "next vote wins" sudden death. So if we have a tie among members at 14 votes, then the first person to receive the 15th vote wins!********************************************* **************************

In hopes to increase participation for the nomination process for the MOTM plan, we have added in a new addition to the plan to spice it up a little bit for you. Here we go:
1.) Each person that participates by nominating a member will receive an extra 1,000 rep points just for taking the time to partake in the plan, as will the member you nominate. However, you have to be the first person to state the nominees name. In other words, if you nominate XXX first, then you are going to receive the 1,000 rep points and be eligible for #2 below. People who nominate XXX after you, will NOT receive the 1,000 rep points, so first come first serve.
2.) If you are the first person to nominate a particular member, and that member ends up winning the voting at the end of the month, then you will receive an extra 5,000 rep points to your name (+ the prior 1,000). So you can receive up to 6,000 rep points. Just to clarify and reemphasize, the extra 5,000 rep points will only go to the person who nominates the person first. If you participate and end up winning at the end of the month, you get the winning 10,000 rep points, plus the 1,000 rep points. Mods do not get REP points, but can still participate in the nomination of a member

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ NOMINATION REQUIREMENTS:
To emphasize the original objective of the MOTM Contest, we ask that you consider the following when casting a vote or nomination to ANY member:
1) We DO NOT want voting to come down to whether or not somebody has posted pictures, is sexy & pretty, flirts with you, or even posts a lot on the board. So in other words, to all of you horny guys and women out there, yes that means probably all of us....NO more "Oh, he/she got my vote because she has a nice ass and always posts in a thong or tighty whities" replies.
2) For nominating a member (NOT voting for... just nominating), the following MUST be stated by the nominator:
a. State the person's board name you are nominating.
b. State why they are beneficial to either you or to the AFboard.
c. Give an example of what they did to benefit either you or the board (even a link to the a thread or post they made that stood out to you would suffice).
3) In responses to nominations and vote counts, NO NEGATIVITY IS ALLOWED! If this occurs, your vote will be taken away and you will be banned for that month of the plan. No joking or sarcastic comments will be tolerated.
Bottom line:
Put some serious thought and reflection into your nomination choice. Dare to think past generic answers regarding a nice butt, great photos, "he/she's cool", and "they make me laugh". We have an intelligent community here -- put it to good use, please.
