And the congrats to revmaf continues ;)

From the original:
In light of the fact that a few members of the SP community deserve special attention, I have created a new BoM status called Member of the Week. (Click here (http://www.sorcerers.net/ubb/faq.html#motw) for the FAQ entry.)

All Members of the Week will be listed in this thread, where you can discuss their contribution. (Unfortunately I cannot make everyone who did something to deserve this title in the past a MoTW now, so MoTW status will be awarded only for contributions to SP from today onward.)

Considering Beren hasn't been put into the spotlight here before (despite more than earning the honour), this is a kind of life-time achievement award. Only he's not that old yet, so maybe a better term would be to-date achievement reward. Beren has been doing a great job on the moderating front here for years, as well as supplying SP with a steady stream of excellent exclusive game guides, which are among the most popular content on SP. Thank you Beren!

Member of the Week #36 is Sir Belisarius (29.4.-5.5.06).

Though Bel doesn't come around as much as he used to any more (and after nearly 6 years, that's hardly surprising), he's been a prominent SP figure pretty much from the start. Years back he's also taken upon himself the duty of SP's PayPal account manager and helping me out with various site-related financial transactions, earning my trust and utmost respect over the years. Though his contributions are usually going on behind the scenes (in addition to several donations over the years), they are extremely important for the smooth operation of SP. Thank you Sir Belisarius!

Thank you, Nakia!

I just saw the member of the week title for Nakia, once again. That's really good Nakia!

Thank you revmaf and Takara. I just felt sorry for Tal and since I can't help him with the work I thought a diet of beans and macaroni for a while wouldn't hurt me. :D

And I really like both beans and macaroni so it's no great sacrifice. Might get a wee bit boring but SP will keep me entertained.

Thanks Nakia!

/me ships hug to NJ with UPS.

:banana: :banana: Congrats! :banana: :banana:

Hooray for olimikrig!

Thanks, olimikrig!

:banana: Thank you, olimikrig!

Yay for the gem-eating golem! :banana:

Thanks to Splunge for helping cover a substantial chunk of the costs of the message board switch!

Very nice. Did he pay in Canadian dollars, 'cause those are worth less, you know? :p:p

dmc, the Canadian dolloar has been worth more than the US dollar for awhile now. To be honest, I'm not sure whether I paid in US or Canadian.

Anyway, I saw Tal's cry for help, and, well, I just can't resist a damsel in distress. Of course, if Tal's actually a guy, then I want my money back.

:p

Thank you, Splunge.

No refunds! :p

Had I any spare money, you'd have it. Unfortunately, I'm broker than a broke thing in a broke box which has been dropped and as a result is broken. Ya get me. What little dough I earn is whizzled up the wall, woo.

Thanks, Splunge! :thumb:

Way to go, son! :wave: And IMO that red dragon looks a bit more feminine than the green elf did. The green elf was just down-right scary! :evil:

Hooray for Takara!

Did he pay in turnips? :D

Seriously: :thumb: to Takara!

Takara, you're a dirty rotten copycat!

:p

Well, can't let you have all the glory. :p

Well, OK. I'll let you off the hook...

...this time...

:evil:

:p

:o Gosh, I just saw that Takara is Member of the Week. :wave: Hurray and congratulations. My excuse is that I was away for a long weekend. Good for you, my friend.

Good on you Tak :thumb:

Thanks go to olimikrig yet again!

Good on you for the support. :thumb:

Mange tak, Olimikrig! :thumb:

Merry Christmas everyone :).

Hurray for olimikrig!!! Thanks for the Holiday Gift. :thumb:

:beer: Cheers Olimikrig ;)

olimikrig's just trying to make sure we don't run him out of town. :p

:D

Big thanks to Arahar, and congratulations on your new Distinguished Member title!

Congrats Arahar!!!! :D

Woohoo, Look at the pretty little new title.

Congrats and thanks, Arahar! :banana:

Congratulations, Arahar. :thumb:

:thumb:

Congrats Arahar, drinks are on Tal :shake: :beer:

Another round of thanks goes to Arahar for his latest donation! :thumb:

Congrats Arahar.

heh, at this rate I should probably start asking for stocks/bonds instead of an extended SPS membership :D

After a long time we have another Member of the Week, and it's Nakia with another generous donation which will help cover the expenses of the server migration we've recently incurred.

Thanks, Nakia!

:thanks: Nakia!

You all are welcome, just glad I could do it.
