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

420 Magazine would like to include not only our valued growers, but also more of our non-growing members in this contest. We are by no means excluding growers from the Member of the Month Contest, but we feel that our Plant and Nug Contests are already serving these members pretty well. Please help and support us in this effort.

Specifically, we're looking to thank those members that help and support our site in so many under recognized ways, such as:
  • Greeting new members
  • Helping people with questions
  • Peacemakers
  • Activism efforts
  • Promoting our Sponsors
  • Activity and content generation
  • Reporting violations
Please send your nominations to 420 Support (@Renee Roberts @Pat Puffer or @Teddy Edwards) 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 PST every month. Approved nominations will be posted shortly after midnight PST and, at that time, the polls will open through midnight PST on the last day of the month to vote for a winner.

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.

All winners receive "Member of the Month" title and the following Prize Package:

420 Magazine: 420 Magazine Lighter, 420 Magazine Magnet, 420 Magazine Stickers & Small 420 Magazine Nug Jar

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 entitled to vote.

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

3. Promotion (i.e. campaigning) for yourself or a friend, or any attempt at voting more than one time per person (i.e. multiple user names, etc.) is considered cheating and is prohibited. Promotion also includes family and friends who register a new account for voting purposes. Campaigning in any form - including but not limited to mentioning the nomination in any thread outside the contest and campaigning via PMs - will result in the member being removed from the month's contest. A second instance, either in a different contest during the same month or in any future contest, will attract a lifetime ban from all future contests.

4. Members cannot nominate themselves.

5. Members may only win this title once per year.

6. Staff members from this or any other cannabis forum/community will not be nominated.

7. In accepting the Member of the Month title, prize(s), and the respect of the members, the winner agrees to wear his/her title with honor and to continue to set the example with his/her actions and posting behavior. To retain the Member of the Month title, the winner must remain compliant with contest rules and site guidelines.

Contests Are Legitimate: Now that votes are publicly visible, it should be obvious who is voting. We have endless ways of discovering cheating and are always successful. If you are caught cheating, your entry will be deleted and you'll be called out in the public thread, visible to everyone. Reason being that in the past, when we removed the offending entry without any announcement (to help minimize embarrassment for the member), it often led to uninformed (or worse, misinformed) members questioning our motives and calling us censorship nazi's. More often than not, the cheater themselves would claim innocence, causing a higher workload for our staff. For these reasons, we now alert the community of what happened, to save all the confusion and massive workload on our team.

This year's winners who are now ineligible for nomination:
January - @VetSmoke85
February - @Sunnyskies
March - @Bill284
April - @Rexer
May - @Carcass

June Nominees
@013
I would like to nominate 013. He was the first person to greet me when I joined this forum, and he was really the only poster in those first few days to notice me and understand my need for help. Fast forward one year and he is still always the first person to give help me, or give me advice or cheer for me when I achieve the slightest success.

Long and the short, he is just one awesome dude and I feel lucky to have him as a cyber friend.

013 FTW.

@Squiggle
I would like to nominate @Squiggle for member of the month. He is a wonderful member and is a great representative of 420 Magazine. He is always welcoming new members and when anyone has a problem Squiggle is right there to help them. He always has a friendly attitude and is very knowledgeable.
@Grand Daddy Black
I'd like to nominate @Grand Daddy Black for member of the month. GDB is a long-term, established member with a number of good journals behind him and a perpetual running. Positive and helpful, GDB regularly welcomes new members and often helps out in FAQs. A worthy contender who makes new​
members feel part of the family.

:goodluck: Good luck everyone! :goodluck:

Once again, thank you to whomever tossed my name in!

Now pardon me if I don't get too excited. :laughtwo:

Good luck @013 and @Squiggle. :Rasta:
 
I agree with you about less and less member getting put in for this predigest recognition. Not many members voting either. There are many members deserving, just not put in. I am going to start considering members more often as I read their post.

Tok..
I agree Tok.
I mentioned it before. Thousands of members yet under a hundred vote each month.
We have to figure out how to raise the profile and get more members involved.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Bill
 
@Bill284 I am going to start trying to enter at least one deserving member for recognition every month.

Start read post with a purpose.

I sometimes wonder if member even know about this section or contest.

Tok..
I had no idea for the longest time. It wasn't until a week into voting the first time i was nominated and someone mentioned me I realized.
So nominating more deserving members @Tokin Roll is a good start but we need another way to raise the profile.
Unfortunately we don't use this site to its full capacity.
I'm guilty aswell, I find new stuff all the time. Mostly by accident.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. (Everyone)
I'd like to see a few hundred votes not 50.
Bill
 
I guess when we welcome new members if we mention to check out the contests it could help. Also as you need a certain amount of posts etc it might encourage more to get involved in threads or start a journal. Also put the contest link in our sigs as many of us have. Beyond that I'm not sure.
 
Also I'm guilty of not nominating anyone for the past 2 months. Been so wrapped up in the comparative journals and others I just didn't get around to it. But that's a poor excuse really. Good to see three well deserving members were nominated again at least. All have been deserving for some time now.
 
@VetSmoke85 All I am saying is that there are many more deserving individuals, that are unsung grower that deserver recognition.

I Also agree that many are unaware, so it's our job to start promoting.

What do you think?

Tok..
How can we promote them.
Especially since new members can't vote until 50 post's .
What do you think of giving them an opportunity to cast one vote.
When you join until you get 50 post's you can vote once in one contest only.
Say bud of month. For instance.
That way they can see all the contests and at least feel like they are part of it.
And then will come back next month and vote in rest of contests and hopefully enter them.
Thoughts? @VetSmoke85 @Tokin Roll
