8-10 inductees per year would be overkill and lessen the prestige IMO.
Feels like people are trying to manufacture a result with this pioneers thing, been watching the shows a long while but I've never heard of the some of the names that have been mentioned.

Well, I think there's been some overreaction here, as well as overreaction to the overreaction
Anyway, Pioneers is good. Sounds a bit less subjective than Legends.
I think the committee approach is the right one because, whether we like it or not, we've left it too late to get some of these early babes in by conventional means. If the HoF had started at the same time as the forum, chances are most of them would be in already. But as time goes on the forum membership evolves and an ever increasing number of active members will never have heard of many of the early babes.
That's just the way it is.
Having said that, the committee needs more thought. I think the Forum Awards winners is totally the wrong approach. No offence to anyone but, having the best avatar, being the funniest poster etc, doesn't necessarily give you an insight into the early days of the babeshows.
I'd be looking more at using the Members HoF. Obviously there aren't enough yet to form a decent committee, but I'd be happy for them to invite a few others onto the committee. And if I was them I'd be looking at any cap and vid makers from back in the day, still on the forum, as imo they will have better knowledge of the babe's shows than us ordinary wankers.
Once they have created a list of nominations it should then be put out to a public vote (and just a straight vote, no rounds), with links beside each name to any archive material still live on the forum, including discussion threads as this can give an idea what sort of buzz a girl was creating.
This would allow members not familiar with some of the babes to do some research and still make an informed decision on who to vote for.
That's my tuppence worth.

^ This years panel nominations are being put before the whole forum to vote for.
A bio for the girls & links to their A-Z post and other internet sites (Wikipedia) will also be supplied at the voting stage. Non nominating members are also welcome to add suggestions on the nomination thread.
Voting will commence once all nominations are in, or declined or by next Friday if there is no response.

The Hall Of Fame should just be the Hall Of Fame simply as that , no need for another , i mean what is next the Greek Island Hall Of Fame.
Plus the Hall Of Fame is supposed to be hard to get in so adding another Hall Of Fame makes even easier to get in.
The Hall Of Fame is supposed to have prestige so the prestige has been taken away in my opinion.
The Hall Of Fame is supposed to be special for the babes but now it seems like it is special for the members instead because some members can just vote for who ever they like in the Hall Of Fame and no one else has a say in it.

^ You clearly have not understood the process. As members we discussed last year that girls from the early days of shows were being overlooked so this is a good spirited attempt to correct that oversight.
Charles has explained twice now that all members will get chance to vote for a Pioneer inductee. Nominees are being suggested with this new procedure which will be tried and subsequently reviewed.

In reply to Kingsmind.
We are not inducting more babes this year. Last year there were 3, this year there will be 3. We are just looking to acknowledge those girls who worked in the earlier days.
Every year there are changes to the awards. We changed it to give the dayshows girls a chance and we also brought in the Legions, both which proved popular
As SecretAgent has mentioned the voting round will be for all the forum.
But because a lot of the girls nominated are before a good few of you can remember, I will be adding a bio and a pic.
Let's see how it runs.

Well in my opinion i think it is great they are being overlooked , the Hall Of Fame is supposed to be hard to get in , so if someone more newer has made more of an impact then a classic babe then so be it , just because they are classic babes doesn't automatically mean they deserve to get in.

You think it's great that babes that you have never seen are being overlooked, how would you know if a newer babe had more of an impact than a babe that you've never watched.
What I can say with some certainty is that if we'd had a HOF from 2008-2015 then many of the Pioneer babes would already be in.

So Kingsmind if you never saw Stanley Matthews, George Best, Pele play they were rubbish and don't deserve to be remembered in a Football Hall of Fame. Well I think I can say I and many others disagree with you. I only started watching the shows in 2012 but I don't for one minute believe that means that someone I never saw isn't worthy just because I don't remember her
RE: HALL OF FAME Discussion Thread - Kingsmind - 18-12-2023 18:01
Not saying that at all you got the wrong end of the stick.
What i am saying is there needs to be a talking point on these awards like saying oh i can't believe she isn't in , the shock factors need to be in.
So if we had 1 Hall Of Fame the shock factor would still be in but on 2 Hall Of Fame's it wouldn't because it would be easier to get in.
So on the actual Hall Of Fame if they don't vote for the pioneers they don't simples , we don't have to be forced to put them in just because they couldn't get in before the rules was changed. It's also the same on legends you think about it , how ever the days i do agree with because they often got forgot about and left behind.
And Boom if you say from 2008-2015 the pioneers would be in the Hall Of Fame then i believe you so it's a shame it wasn't around years ago isn't it.
