420 Magazine's Member of the Month: June 2021


  • Total voters
    49
  • Poll closed .
Any suggestions would be appreciated. (Everyone)

I don't know if you notice, but one of the best places to start is introduce yourself.

When I say that I mean, not only welcome the new member add links that will make them go to specific areas of the site.

I read the intro's quite often, too try an easy their mind. This is a big step for a lot of people.

I personal think that when new member migrate from the intro. section and start a journal that they often feel like their on their own. A lot of member stop and show approval, but not to much communication.

Just my thoughts,

Tok..
 
A new member of the year contest for anyone who joins in that calendar year. Make all new members in a given calendar year a chance at the prize. Instant increased interest and volume of posts!

Give new members something to go after, get them interested in the other contests...make them fall in love with 420 like we have! :Rasta:
 
I'm pretty sure the 50-post minimum was to prevent people from having friends create accounts just to vote for them in a single contest, which that change would encourage.
I understand the principle behind the 50 post threshold.
I was just trying to think of something to get them interested and involved.
GDB's post gave me an idea.
What about a calander.
Something showing whats going on with dates and deadlines.
Telling people about everything going on and when?
What do you think of that.
420-calander.

The poll closed at midnight and the winner is clear! A huge congratulations goes to @Grand Daddy Black!:bravo:Thank you so much for all of your contributions here, this community is truly grateful for you. :adore:We would also like to thank all of the nominees and those that nominated them. :love:

We noticed that some of you have been working on how to better promote these contests and we are very grateful for all of your suggestions and will take them into consideration. :thanks:
 
Thanks you all for the win! And a special thanks to whomever put me up for consideration and, of course, to those who saw fit to vote for me. It's an honor to be known as something other than a "Well Known Member" (which has always sounded slightly vulgar to me)!

I'll do my best to live up to the standards of previous winners and continue to support a caring and sharing environment here at the mag.

And to @Squiggle and @013 (the anti-exterminator), good run fellas! Your days are coming to be sure!

:slide::theband:Party over here! :theband::slide:
 
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:

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
