<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 913996, member: 112&quot;]Not at all, you see I don&#039;t mind doing the work, I enjoy it. What I am complaining about is that people asked for something - I gave it to them. Then when they got it they didn&#039;t, or wouldn&#039;t,&nbsp; use it.</p><p><br /></p><p>And for the record, if I want to complain about something - I can. Everybody else does, and they do it all the time. Every day I get complaints about this or about that. People post complaints on daily basis. They are allowed to do that because they are members. Well, I&#039;m a member too. So I want to complain, I will <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>No it isn&#039;t the same, never claimed it would be. But it is the best I can offer. What you are suggesting is like the guy who wants a brand new car, for free. Somebody gives him the car for free, then when he gets it he says - oh crap, I wanted a blue one ! :crying: And walks away leaving the car behind.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Uhhhhhh - apparently none of you have noticed, but all of those great threads that you have all been lamenting about - guess what ? They&#039;re all still there, every single one. And they are all still located in 1 single place, the - <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/f40/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/f40/">Announcements</a> - section. Complete with links, the number of nominations - everything. It&#039;s all still there right where it was to begin with.</p><p><br /></p><p>What you are complaining about is that you can&#039;t vote for them anymore by clicking a button. That&#039;s it, that&#039;s the only thing that is any different. Well :crying: :crying: Shall I call the waaaahmbulance ? </p><p><br /></p><p>I mean c&#039;mon people, you wanted a way to be able to recognize somebody&#039;s good work. You have it. You wanted a way for all those great posts to be located in one spot right at the top of the page where anybody can see them easily and find them at any time. You have it.</p><p><br /></p><p>The only thing I cannot give you is the ability to vote for those posts by clicking a button. That is the only difference. I&#039;d love to give it to you, so would Peter. But we can&#039;t. Is the ease of clicking on a button so damn important when you can have everything else you want ?</p><p><br /></p><p>And if you want a Hall of Fame, I can give that to you too. I&#039;ll just create another thread with the Hall of Fame Winners in it. But before I can do that, we have to have enough winners to choose the best from. </p><p><br /></p><p>That requires your participation ! Just like it did the last time. Only this time, you have to spend 15 or 20 seconds sending me a PM.</p><p><br /></p><p>So c&#039;mon, continue what this thread brought about. It got people off their seats and they did something. A few of you chose to spend those few seconds sending the PMs, and you got your new winner. A great post was recognized - again. Just like you wanted.</p><p><br /></p><p>And believe it or not, this system does have an advantage. You don&#039;t have to wait a week. You can have 5 or 10 winners a week. All it takes is 5 nominations. With the old system, if 1 guy got 8 nominations and the next only got 7 - only the guy with 8 won. With this system - they both win !</p><p><br /></p><p>And just like the old way, this one requires your help. You have to vote. You, the members, are what make this forum what it is. You always have, I&#039;ve told you that more times than I can count.</p><p><br /></p><p>So instead of sitting around and going waaaaaah ! :crying: because you can&#039;t click on a button anymore - get behind the idea and do your part - vote ! And you&#039;ll have what you want. </p><p><br /></p><p>I can&#039;t give the old way back, wish I could but I can&#039;t - sorry. But I can give you this. And it will have one other advantage that the old system did not. No software update can make this one go away. This one is here forever ! Assuming of course that you participate.</p><p><br /></p><p>So do you care enough to participate ? You say you do - now prove it <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
