Nominate the Subsim Skipper of the month

Onkel Neal · 01-17-07, 01:19 PM

We have so many great people here, I am going to have a Subsim Skipper of the month. Here's how it works:

Rules

1. You cannot nominate yourself.
2. You must have logged 50 or more posts to nominate someone. (For obvious reasons).
3. One nomination per person, please.
4. Once posted, you cannot change your nominee. Don't edit your nomination post.
5. You can and should shamelessly petition their case here, in this thread.

This will be partly a popularity contest, but also a reward for someone you think has been helpful, friendly, interesting, and overall a good Subsim guy.

Our judges will select the nominees with the best argued cases and run a poll for you to vote on the finalists. The winning Subsim Skipper of the month will receive a Rigged for Dive t-shirt and a copy of the Subsim book.

thanks
Neal

Question: Does it apply to whole the forums or just to SH3 one? I personally fell I couldn't vote for anyone, cause I'm sticked to this subforum and hardly ever have a look at others...

Onkel Neal · 01-17-07, 01:24 PM

Anyone on any of the Subsim forums.

STEED · 01-17-07, 01:34 PM

A bit of fun. :hmm: And why not.

I vote for The Avon Lady she rocks.

_Seth_ · 01-17-07, 01:39 PM

I would like to nominate danlisa. Without him i wouldnt have known anything about skinning & modding. And he is also extremly helpfull to all the newbies that joins subsim. All over, a great guy!

Edit; Firewall, i apperciate your nice thoughts, mate. Those kind words really warmes!

But i think there are a people in here who deserves this more than me, truly (like Sailor Steve, danlisa, Stabiz, mrchris, bigboywooly, Kpt.Lehmann and all the rest!)

Gizzmoe · 01-17-07, 01:43 PM

I vote for Sailor Steve. Not only is he already a member for many years, there is a certain continuity in his behaviour. He´s always trying to be helpful, he´s friendly and it´s very obvious that he cares much about this community. Even now that he is going through difficult times he´s here regularly, for me that´s a sign of devotion. He´s a real asset to our community.

ASWnut101 · 01-17-07, 01:58 PM

bah!... can't vote for meself.

01-17-07, 02:00 PM

I nominate Neal Stevens.

Not only does he run the place (and that takes a lot of hours to do i bet) but he allso works "behind the curtain" to enhance our enjoyment in the future.

Always a polite answer from him and he comes up with the info we all want from time to time.

Thanks for your effort Neal

Could not be better said...

I nominate Seth.
I feel he's a worthy canidate as he alway's first to welcome a newbie
and help them with whatever their question is. And if he doesn't have
the right answer he refer's them to someone that doe's. He away's put's
a positive spin on everthing and will join in with a laugh but, never at
somebody else's expense. He share's the mod skins he does then gives credit to all that helped him get it out to us. He will also take the time to pm aperson that needs help so it doesn't tie up the thread and offers to
help them step by step to acomplish what their not smart enough to do
on their own and ashure's them that their not dumb and everyone needs
help to learn something new. He's alway's willing to chip in any way he can when a members in need whether it's "knowledge,financial or moral
support.

These in my opinion are the qualities of a Skipper

danlisa · 01-17-07, 02:20 PM

Erm, thanks Seth.

My vote - this is really hard Neal, as you say there are so many members here who are helpful, friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable as well as those who, in the face of adversity have managed to overcome many obstacles and achieve something that benefits the entire community.
It is also very hard to encompass the whole of Subsim in my decision so I'll stick with what I know, SH3.

My vote goes to someone who is always helpful, cheerful, knowledgeable and has been a 'one man army' (as someone put it

) in the last month or so following the release of GWX.

Drumroll please & take a bow.......................bigboywooly

I have to agree with the choice of Sailor Steve, excellent skipper and a true Subsim pioneer, hats off for the old guard.

Enigma · 01-17-07, 02:25 PM

I nominate Sea Queen.

After my "Last chance at my skipper stripes" thread, in which I stated I would all but quit on DW if I didnt come to understand it better, I got help from lots of people who answered lots of my questions. Most notably was Sea Queen, who took the time to answer my questions at length and make suggestions that helped me make vast strides in my competancy as a skipper. I now utilize the systems of my Seawolf with knowledge of what the hell they are doing.

Seriously, my game has come a long way thanks to she and this communtiy. Im even designing campiagns now!

Honorable mention to Subguru, who is always very helpful and giving of his time. I think Sea Queen just might have a little more time on his hands than bill!

CCIP · 01-17-07, 02:32 PM

I join the call on Sailor Steve. Definitely an excellent choice

sonar732 · 01-17-07, 02:33 PM

This is difficult to say! I feel that Subsim.com's moderators need to at least have an honorary mention each month! They put up with so much crap and are under the watchful eye of our members.
