420 Staff
Welcome to 420 Magazine's Member of the Month Contest!

Please send your nominations to @Renee Roberts via private message, including detailed reasoning for your nomination. 420 Staff will assess and approve the community nominations, then members determine the winner by poll.

Nominations are accepted from the 1st until the 14th at midnight EST every month. Approved nominations will be posted shortly after midnight EST. At that time, the polls will open through midnight EST on the last day of the month.

Please follow the above guidelines to propose a nomination and do not post or discuss nominations in the contest thread. Nominations and/or suggestions of nominations in the contest thread will be deleted without notice.

Monthly winners are automatically eligible for our prestigious "Member of the Year" contest, held in January.

Contest Guidelines:

1. Members must have at least 50 posts to be eligible for nominations and/or voting.

2. 420 Magazine staff members submit nominees and rationale in the contest thread.

3. Members cannot nominate themselves.

4. Members may only win this title once per calendar year.

5. Staff members from this or any other cannabis platform, cannot participate in our contests.

6. Member of the Month title should be worn with pride, winners agree to lead by example long after the contest is over. To retain Member of the Month title, the winner must remain compliant with all guidelines.

7. Campaigning for yourself or a friend, is considered cheating and will result in the entry being removed from the contest.

Campaigning includes:
  • Voting more than one time per person from multiple accounts.
  • Signature linking to the specific entry.
  • Emailing members offsite asking for their vote.
  • Sending members private messages asking for their vote.
  • Family and friends registering new accounts for voting purposes.
  • Mentioning the specific entry in any thread outside of the contest.
Second offenses will result in a lifetime ban from all future contests. General encouragement to vote in all the contests is fine, as long as it's not excessive or crossing the line into campaigning.

Contests Are Legitimate: Voting may be anonymous, but we have endless ways of catching cheaters and are always successful. If you are caught cheating, your entry will be deleted and you'll be exposed in the public thread.

In the past, we removed offending entries without announcement, to minimize embarrassment for the member. The cheaters would then claim innocence, which turned everyone against us. This led to members questioning our motives and causing extra work for our team. To avoid confusion moving forward, we now alert the community of these things when they happen.

If anyone has any questions or problems with any of the entries in a contest, please speak up in the contest thread before the end of the contest, or forever hold your peace. Once a winner is announced, that will be the end of discussion. There will be no take backs, unless we made a clerical error.

This year's winners who are now ineligible for nomination:
January: @Absorber
February: @Carmen Ray
March: @Bill284
April: @KeithLemon
May: @Tokin Roll
June: @Carcass
July: @Grand Daddy Black

August Member Nominees


@Roy Growin

I would like to nominate this absolute GrowStar!

Roy Growin is an absolute forum staple. You can often see him greeting new members with kindness, pointing them in the right directions when it comes to growing. He showcases our sponsors so very beautifully and his photography is next level. One of my favourite photos he shot is a beautiful nug he grew… with an added chicken egg for size ratio. Legit still makes me lol. He is a bit of a nerd which means he also understands the boring side of growing da ‘erb. The PPM, the ECG, the CalMag, the STD and pH stuff so he can help other grow nerds when it comes to that side sciency side of growing. And lastly, he literally puts his money where his mouth is and is a Patreon, which I think is an important attribute to any member being voted for MotM. It proves that he really is here to support this fabulous small business Rob has built for us. I really feel when it comes to Roy, he’s not here for the likes or the prizes. He’s here because he genuinely loves the site, and I think it shows in the way he conducts himself.

So thank you for all you do for the site and for us members. I really hope August is your time to shine. Xo

@Ke0ncp

I would like to recognize and submit Ke0ncp for Member of the Month August 2024.

Ke0ncp is one of those members that flies below the radar; he welcomes new member, supports sponsors, and provides grow advise when needed.

He can often be found welcoming new member; providing encouragement and support as they learn their way around the forum.

Ke0ncp goes out of his way to recommending 420 Magazine sponsors to new and experienced growers, that are thinking about up grading, or to new member that are starting a grow setup.

I often find him giving solid advise, when he is asking to help a fellow grower and when he’s not doing offering guidance’s that he is giving moral support to growers.

Do vote until you give him a look.

@013

I would like to nominate member O13 for Member of the Month.

O13 can be seen throughout the forums helping members with questions on plant problems and growing in general, answering from his experience, or tagging knowledgeable members who he feels may be able to answer it. He makes newer growers feel more confident and encouraged with their efforts. It's obvious that he wants newer members and growers to feel welcomed and free to ask questions.

@Gee64

I would like to nominate Gee64 again, for all the reasons that were listed last month:

"He is a great source of growing knowledge for this site. He makes organic gardening seem easy and accessible to everyone. His willingness to help anyone who has questions regarding growing and organics is something that should be recognized. His Gee Spot thread is an ongoing organic knowledge bomb and a gathering place for all skill levels of growers. His plants there are exceptional and sometimes grow really nifty mutant buds. He also encourages growers to post pictures of their plants in his thread to allow the Gee Spot brain trust to diagnose, discuss and celebrate plants. His experience, knowledge and willingness to help others is why he should be considered for Member of the Month."

:goodluck: Good Luck Everyone! :goodluck:
 
You need to PM @Renee Roberts with your nomination along with a brief paragraph to substantiate your choice

Well thanks for who ever put me in for this! Greatly appreciated, however, I see some names up there that are far more deserving than I.

As I keeping saying what a great community we have here!!!
 
@Ke0ncp - Two legs, four legs, we are all equal here bro - there is no 'Some are more equal than others'
Your contributions are just valuable as anyone else's
Being nominated in itself is a given honour, is it not?
Good luck Mate, your participation does not go unnoticed
