Hi all,
Something a little different here. Each month we will be awarding an "award" . MVP AWARD Its basically a recognition award. It will be Noted in the member's Profile and given to members that have really gone above and beyond in helping the forum or other members. There's no cash value for this award, and its 100 % subjective based on what we see. Suggestions can be made privately to me or any mod/admin though with reasons why you feel so and so should be nominated. Basically I just want to recognize members that put extra effort in the community here.

Thanks,
Al

Wow, November Flew by! Hard to believe its December already! But that means its time to name our MVP of the Month for December.

When I thought up this idea I really want another way to recognize the members of our community that go above and beyond here and help make this a better place. I can think of No One more deserving of that kind of Recognition than my fellow Admin, Second Hand Pat! Pat is of tremendous help here day in and day out. Theres days when I can't be here and I know the place is in good hands with her watching over it. She gives her time here tirelessly and I think she should be recognized for it

So Congratulations Pat!!... and Thank you!

It would be extremely difficult in just a few words to describe how Pat is a key player on SD both as a forum Admin and customer service rep to the members. It seems whatever she touches turn to gold whether it be as a Discus/Fish hobbyist or her love with photography.
This is a better place with Pat Husband and recognize her as a friend.

Hello all,
I have awarded the MVP award for April 2016 and this one goes out to one of the Forum's Moderators. :) For all his work with our Photography section, donating his time to help others with their imaging needs, as well as his role in our Camera Journey Project. For these reasons in addition to his upbeat support of the membership I am proud to award the April 2016 MVP to Ricardo (aka rickztahone)!!!

Oh my goodness Liz, wow! There has been very few moments in my life that I'm caught of guard & speechless, but this is for sure one of them. I am very grateful for the recognition. My wife is often siting my willingness to "contribute", and that sometimes my efforts are helpful, lol. Serious though, this is really cool and I'm thankful to the "team" for all you do to keep this great forum running hot.

I do like sports, and did chuckle at your post. If I still lived in Australia it probably woulda missed it as we don't do MVP rings for players back home. I think we give em a six pack and a pat on the back, lol. I appreciate your well wishes and humour mate :thumbsup:
