Thank you to 5 special members

Frankly i'm amazed to make it onto anyone's list that doesn't include "Cunt" in the title. maybe i need to try harder

Cheers Fella!

ok, if we're doing this i would like to name, in no particular order: skully, jam da man, charle, smc, admin.

oh, and chimpy. and tsurugi. and skateguy.

1. skully.
Like Snookered said, the forum without skully there certainly would be chaos on this forum. I echo his thought, skully is the forum's voice of reason and rationality. He has shown himself as kind and considerate soul and is always able to provide you with sound advice He is indeed a Forum Legend who has shown nothing fazes him.
And probably the best man you'd want in a trench next to you in battle.

2. Chrisst.
A great contributor to the forum and one I consider as a forum friend. An all round top bloke for sure!! his passion for Fernanda is great.

3. Kingsmind He is without doubt another bloke you'd want in the trench next to you in battle. He'd probably share his last chocolate bar with you before going into battle. A bloke of huge personality and his contributions are
always thought provoking and offering a viewpoint of reason and sometimes puts that little bit of light relief into the forum. He has a great sense of humour and just want to say you are great bloke to have a laugh with.

4. HP.
For making the Trump thread the first port of call in the in the morning when logging in!! Mate you probably are the forum's court jester without a doubt!!! thanks for making me laugh.

5. Charlemagne
Charle is perhaps one another one of this forum's Legends.
Great moderator and all round contributor. Without his help and advice I wouldn't have created the Forum's Hall of Fame and I think along with skully deserves a nomination or two for the Forum member's HOF.His level of expertise and advice is something else!

And finally... to all you other guys who didn't make it onto my thank you list: -
You guys whatever your status on this forum you all deserve my thanks for making this a vibrant, fun and very welcoming forum. My time on this forum wouldn't be the same without you guys posting your caps, vids and comments that offer us all a fresh outlook on life away from the tribulstion of the real world. SO BIG THANKS!!

Thanks Lovebabes. Same here from me.

More shameless cheating from me .

Here is another 3.

1. SecretAgent.
For all the tremendous kindness shown to me none more so than the last 12 months in particular. Mrs Agent should be very proud of her most excellent and dedicated forum version of her other half.
And a two time poster of the year to boot.
Speaks volumes.
A poster of tremendous gravitas and intelligence .

2. Boomer.
Hang on a minute. Elland Road will think this is a Leeds United love in at this rate .
I mean I know my lot are up there first day of the new season but come on now .
Being serious though, Boomer is the perfect forumite.
An ideal blend of constructiveness, good humour, self deprecation, common sense and kindness that shines through in his contributions here.
Admirable taste in the female form makes him all the more compelling.

3. Doddle.
Down to earth, no nonsense, good humoured posting a plenty and a snooker lover.
Nothing to dislike at all. A really excellent contributor who I have the utmost respect for.
Been around on this forum for about as long as I have.
I'm a sad git, what's your excuse?

^ I seem to have something in my eye, that must be it

Snooks you are a gentleman and many many others have pointed out on this forum how much you are appreciated so I'm just one amongst many. Mind you I'm going to frame the intelligence quote

If you could get your side to roll over for us on 6th August I would be grateful!

1. 2015Watcher, 2, HLO, 3. Lanta 4. Tumble_Drier, 5. Regen.

Ah I see what you've done here, your original 5 maybe had a slight Southern bias,
so you've drafted in 3 from Ooop-North, even if one's from the wrong side of the Pennines, despite that, he's alright.
To be fair I'm a bit rubbish at remembering where everyone is from, & pretty much refer to any as Southerners, ever my neighbours across the road. So sorry for any offence.
Anyway Lanta is a Tyke, if I'm not mistaken, so I'm in good company, along with Mr. Agent, who I have a lot of time for, a solid bloke.
Along with your good self Mr.Snooks, I agree with your sentiments concerning your first 5, & I wouldn't call it cheating to add 3 more, at man of your gravitas has earned that right.
Forgive me for not listing my own, for fear of leaving out those with equal merit.
A much simpler task would be to come up with 5 members who deserve no special thanks at all, but I wouldn't give them that pleasure.

Anyway, thanks for your kind words, & back at ya !

Gosh, I'm flattered to make, er, #13 on your list I still can't believe we arrived here the same week... ooh, 12 years this month

& belated thanks to ...*checks spelling*... Chrisst for mentioning me in a "well, obviously" way

I feel I ought to pick 5 names out of a hat myself, so, er...

Dan Dan the Volatile Man - #1 video archivist IMO
Southside Stu - #1 pic bloke IMO and humble with it
HLO - don't be fooled by the pix that he's got, he's still HLO from the block
Snooks - he rings the birds so I don't have to (that doesn't sound quite right, never mind)

I'm tempted to leave 5th blank so that anyone disappointed can feel they were joint 5th with all the others

However I suppose I ought to pick Rammy, really, since we're such a similar age and often seem to share similar interests to the point that my reviews seem to echo his. Happily, we do differ too... I don't think I've ever used the adverb "mind-blowingly" for a start... nor do I have spiky hair, of course...

^ well they do say I'm streetwise and by they I mean absolutely no-one but hey Doddle it's good to know I still remind you of JLO after three years . Thanks to you and your hat, I do appreciate it

As for me picking 5 "special members" (since you all asked) that's almost impossible to pick that amount out of so many who have been good to me and more importantly to the forum so I'm happy to sit on my fence and soak in the nice comments.
