Best/most useful contributors to the Back Room
Screwloose and elekie&a/c doc. In most days with seriously good information and advice. Thanks!
|
In the same category I would also vote for Aprilia.
He always offers extremely useful replies to most threads with a balanced viewpoint that is like a breath of fresh air.

Great fun, RTB!
I'll avoid expressing an opinion on most of this, but would tactfully point out that Adam{P}'s "return", though undoubtedly welcome, was short-lived. It is something that worries me, though I understand his reasons. Perhaps I shouldn't even mention it.
Your most laugh-inducing nomination is for bell boy - spot-on!

I third Aprilia being most respected BRoomer, but honorable mention must go to Screwloose and 659FBE aswell- I always find their views enlightening.

Aprilia, Screwloose and elekie doc for excellent tech help and advice.
Also apprecited Armitage Shanks views on NIP issues earlier in the year.
Number Cruncher for provding cerebral stimulation.
PU for being the most moderate moderator (with respect to DD).

Yep, let's not forget the mods - this is a very civilised site - great posters overseen by the (usually!) light hand of the mods.
Thanks all

And thanks for all the hidden activity by the mods - like responding very quickly to emails that I have sent.

I'd nominate Aprilia as the best all rounder; greatly appreciate Screwloose and Rich W (?) for PSA related advice.

I second all the above, but would ask for a (right) honorable mention go to AlteaEgo. The site wouldn't be the same without him!
I'm not sure about Adam(P)'s departure or return being glorified either. All a bit dramatic for me - sorry - but that's how I've always felt about it.
|
May I nominate Lud for proving that wisdom comes with age?
Whenever I have an opinion on a thread, Lud has got there first and said what I would have said, and much better too!

I can't remember (read, can't be bothered to wait for the forum search) who it was, but the guy who had the break in and his vRS stolen has to get a nomination for bravery and good sense when it counted.
Plenty of people would get awards for randomness.
And Number Cruncher, for regularly making my head explode.
