July 2012 Notable Pony Nominations!
Congratulations, Chishio Kunrin! :DThank you for being a kind and respectful pony on the Legends of Equestria Forums!
For this, you deserve a fancy badge along with a title every pony dreams of!
We hope you enjoy! ^-^(http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2012/197/5/1/july2012awards_by_faikie-d57idll.png)
Hey there, Equestrian enthusiasts!
The time has come once again to hand out our fabulous "Notable User" award!
This month, everyone's second-favorite programmer, Tekner, has been working on some magical scientific algorithmic witchcraft that will allow us to tally the votes using the power of internet robots! How exciting! Now all that's left is for you, our adoring fans, to vote for who you think should be the recipient of this fabulous and hallowed award!
That's right, folks. You read correctly. One lucky fan will have their name elevated to the pantheon of the notable, and you will personally get to help choose who it'll be!
Here's how: Just leave a comment in this thread stating "I nominate <name> because <reason>."
Remember, this is being judged by super-advanced and super-finicky robots from the future, and everyone in the future talks like Bloomberg. So in order for your nomination to count, you have to make sure you've spelled their name correctly. You also cannot quote other's nominations, or it will not count.
The names are also case-sensitive, which means that "I nominate AnyaSmash because she is the best pony, and I really like her mane," and "I nominate Anyasmash because I'm afraid of what she'll do to me if I don't," will be read as two separate votes for two separate beautiful geniuses, so please make sure you capitalize those capital letters, folks!
You can't actually vote for me, of course, or any other member of the development team, because we already know we're the greatest. You can't vote for yourself either, because I like making lots of rules.
Lastly, as always, you can only vote once, so make yours count! Now, without further ado, let the voting begin, and may the best user win!
I nominate Chishio Kunrin because they have actually made threads to help new ponies ^-^
I nominate Chishio Kunrin because she is a very friendly and helpful pony and I think deserves to be noted as a notable pony.
Pinkie, you can't quote posts. Type it out exactly how Anya said to.
Thank you ^-^
What chu talking 'bout?? I totes followed the rules. 0:)
I'm going to need a day to choose, to many choices :\

No one ever said it was a race my friend. ^-^
i nominate tiger, because she reminds newcomers of the rules and she brings my day up a level so does everypony here.
I understand that it's a little bit weird to have to type so exact on a forum where your creativity is seldom limited in any way, but in order to make this easier on Anya and myself, I wrote the bot to read your posts. This means you must post in a specific way, and even then it's not that hard. Just make sure you start off with "I nominate <name> because " and then you can type to your heart's content. I only ask that you make sure four words are typed in a specific way. That's it; Just. Four. Words.
Now, technically, you don't have to type that way, but then your vote won't count. So if you want your vote to count, make sure you type in the format both I and Anya have specified. Thank you! If you've already made a post and it needs to be fixed, simply edit it.
As a side note: I intend on improving this system by hopefully making a web app you can use instead of this clunky, annoying thread thing. This should be a one-time thing, don't worry guys.

I nominate Chishio Kunrin because she helps the new ponies with her thread and updates the LoE wiki.
I nominate Pinkie Pie because she has been active in nearly all areas of the forum from what I've seen and always has a nice or fun comment to add, she assisted in reviving the audio thread with positive comments and encouragement. To finish off she is a good GM in the RP section who has helped me on multiple occasions keep a certain RP in order."
I nominate Chishio Kunrin because she's nice to almost everypony on the forums and has a lot of great ideas ^-^
I have so many ponies that I want to nominate and can't pick just one

I vote for Chishio Kunrin because she tries her best to inform new comers about the ways of the forum and its rules, she is also really polite and friendly to everpony ^-^
Chishio Kunrin is the pony I nominate. Truly a person that deserves this month's award. Friendly, contributing and just an amazing pony in general.

Congrats Chishio Kunrin just from seeing your posts I can see why you were nominated. ^-^
not too surprising. i still have a feeling the nomination thread could have been more high-profile; there didn't seem near as many votes this time as before.
I personally didn't know this existed....or I would have voted.....but i wouldn't have known for who
the "unknown vote" lol
Still, I didn't vote because I couldn't choose Anya.

Actually, I'd be pretty angry if I did win.
I like being the center of attention, not some greater person.
Really this is just the Karma system all over again, something I absolutely hated because of how it was really all about who liked who. This isn't any different.
O.O It is... *Uses Zyggy as a shield*
*sigh* although... well, I won't say much more. When votes are unanimous, there's not much to say about the quality of reasons given, since there wasn't really anything to compare the reasons to.
Yes, this forum is due for some changes. I think that from now on, we should replace appreciation with bitterness. :]
or maybe just have a requirement where it's not about X it's about Y, where Y is seen as "more notable"
lol well anyway I feel glad for her. I hope to see more voters next time! ^-^

It wasn't because so and so is a greater person, they just did something to help the community.

No.
However, what I do see is something that just can't work the way it's intended to, due to basic human nature.
Zygrograxgra, there is no need for your negativity.
These awards were created because the community agreed it would be nice to have something like this after the removal of post counts and post count titles. Now those did invoke the wrong type of attitudes and seemed to have inflated some user's egos.
Both the ponies selected for the titles are so far kind, rule-abiding fellows and deserve to be recognized for it. Especially since it is a community decision to nominate them.
Locking this thread up now, thanks everyone for participating. Hopefully for the next nominations we will have a more anonymous system up so everyone will be comfortable expressing their opinions. ^-^
