Hi all, per request of some members we will establish a Broncos Forums Hall of Fame. This is the initial voting for the inaugural class. Mods, I hope I can keep this thread here as it will drive more traffic and interest.

Here are the rules for the Hall of Fame. I came up with these myself, but if someone has a suggestion for something different let me know.

Eligibility Rules:
You must have been a member for at least 4 years as of 1-1-2012
You must have at least 4000 posts. (Avg. of 1000 per year)

Voting Rules:
Rank your top 5 posters IN ORDER
First place votes will be worth 5 points, second place 4 points, and so on and so forth
After voting concludes, the top 5 in points will be the inaugural Hall of Fame class of 2012
If there is a tie for 5th, all tied members will be inducted
You may NOT vote for yourself. A vote for yourself will not count.

Please PM your votes to me, BaileyTheBest. Any votes posted in this thread will not count. Voting will conclude on January 1, 2012 at 11:59 PM EST.

Here is the list of the posters eligible for this year's Hall of Fame Class. They are posted in alphabetical order to avoid bias in the order of the list.

I think the 1,000 posts/year or 4,000 total post count is a bit low to be considered a HOF'er. Just my feedback.

BroncoWave
12-23-2011, 06:21 PM
I think it's consistent enough posting over four years to be considered. Just because you haven't contributed as much as some posters doesn't mean the contributions weren't quality. There are some VERY quality posters who have been here for 4 years and don't have much more than 4000 posts. If others agree with you though I'll consider changing it.

Northman
12-23-2011, 06:25 PM
I dont think thats too bad, its pretty easy to get over 4,000 by posting in listing threads like music and movies. Its a good starting point i think. In the end it should be more about the quality of the poster rather than just post count. I mean look at King87, 99% of his posts are worthless but do you really want him in the HOF here? lol

I also think for future years, just so the list length doesn't get out of control, you have to receive at least one vote to stay on the ballot the next year. And maybe also have a max number of years you are on the ballot before you come off.

It just would have taken forever to compile a list without some sort of posting limit. And to remove the inactive posters, for next year's voting anyone who didn't get at least one vote this year will not be on the ballot next year.

Not sure you are directing this to me, as I had the last post, but if it was your missed my point.

I think its a cool idea, I dont post often so my response was geared to the NFL hall, who seem to pass over our middle of the country team and vote in others who might or might not be more deserving.

Got no gripes about the idea, but think HoF might be abit soon, maybe just BF posters of the year.

Btw, in keeping with the theme, if by some chance Randy Gradishar posts on here, no matter how deserving you are, you shall not be elected to the BF HoF. If, however, Harry Carson is posting on here, even if his posting quality is not equal to yours he would be a shoe in.

Very good voting turnout so far. As of now, there are a pretty clear top 2 but after that there are about 10 posters within 10 points (or two first place votes) of each other, so the race for those last three spots is still wide open. Be sure to cast your ballot if you haven't yet because every vote will count!

Take out the fact that I'm a mod and other people in this same thread have said the same thing. I have the right to post, just as you do. If you don't want negative posts, don't post a thread. You don't own the Reply button. I can take out Circle Jerk and replace it with Popularity Contest. Would that make you happier or are you just bitching because you don't like the fact that someone posted a negative reaction?

Yep, it would be easier to just not reply and keep quiet....but well....I don't have to.

Oh and could you please send me where you were told not to use "Circle Jerk" because in my time as mod, and it's been awhile, I don't remember having that discussion. Since mod discussions aren't allowed in the open forum, you can pm that to me anytime.

I know some of y'all think that's great but personally, I don't think he's been here often enough in the last two years to be more than a blip on anyone's radar, except the long timers. HOF means a long lasting, consistent contribution in my opinion. I don't even fit the bill.

Other MB's usually have an HOF designator once a poster reaches a certain milestone in post count. Otherwise, it really is nothing but a popularity contest.

And just a bit of Irony....I think it was AZ who reached RING OF FAMER first on Mania.

No, maybe he hasn't been as active as he was before. Maybe some of us are using his time on Mania as a reason he should be on. Whatever the reason, there's a reason why he is such a respected guy even after taking his posting down as he has. I guess ya just had to know him and what he was about, and what a friend he was to everyone.

Anyone over 4 years who isn't a lurker. SO the list is longer, so what. Doesn't mean that anyone would vote for them. What does it hurt to have a larger pool of people to choose from? He's about the only exception to the rule that I have seen.

I don't care about the votes, I don't care who gets in, I care that a guy like AZ isn't on the list because he's been quiet the last 2 years. That doesn't discredit what he has been previous to that just because he doesn't have some post count.

Actually, I was. AZ was second, although he ultimately passed me as the all
time points leader there. (I don't know what the situation is now because
neither of us spends much time there.) Which is ironic because I don't believe
the quality of my posts ever approached his. It's the same here: We haven't
seen a lot of his posts outside the Politics forum, but whether in or out of that
forum, he has never posted anything but quality.

Look people, I said IN THE FIRST POST, that if anyone had a problem with anything about this contest to post it and if others agreed it was a legitimate concern, I'd consider changing it. I was welcoming any constructive criticism on how to make this better. Now some people have expressed constructive criticism in this thread and to those posters, I thank you for the classy manner in which you did so. Others have decided to come in and personally attack me or this contest for it not being just the way they want, which is regrettable, but that's just the way some folks are. But if you want something changed, that probably isn't the most efficient way to go about it.

Anyone who knows me knows I am a reasonable dude and am willing to admit when I'm wrong or I've made a mistake. The reason I opened the floor for suggestions in the VERY FIRST POST was to make this contest as enjoyable for all as possible. I thank those who have actually given constructive criticism and those who have participated and had fun with this event. And for those who have just come in here to be negative, I hope you're pleased with yourselves.

Now having said all of this, it does appear that there is some concern among multiple posters with AZ Snake being left off the list. Let me just make a few points on this.

1. I had to draw the lines on eligibility somewhere. If you make anyone eligible, it's not really a "hall of fame". I realize this may cut some quality posters out, but I think the restrictions are fair, and most seem to agree.

2. Some seem to have a bigger issue with the post count than the time limit, but without any post count, there would have been a huge list of eligible members and it would have taken a great deal of time to either type that list out or to go through and check the join date of every poster voted for in this contest. Once again, as many people who would have been made eligible by this, I think it kinda waters down the prestige of a "hall of fame".

3. While I think, and it appears at least most others agree, that the restrictions are fair, there does seem to be enough of an outcry for AZ that I am willing to compromise. At this point of the competition, it's too late to simply add his name to the list and have everyone re-vote. I've gotten too many votes to do that. However, I am willing to add his name to the list now and if there is a big influx at the end of votes for him and he makes the top 5, he'll be in. There is still plenty of time to vote and plenty of people who haven't voted. I'll also be sure to include him on the ballot next year.

I almost hate to do this because it appeases certain posters in here who came in and whined because they didn't like the contest, but I'll put the overall support for AZ above how I feel about the whining of these few select posters.

Hopefully these changes are satisfactory, and if not hopefully any issues can be discussed in a more cordial manner from here on out.

Look people, I said IN THE FIRST POST, that if anyone had a problem with anything about this contest to post it and if others agreed it was a legitimate concern, I'd consider changing it. I was welcoming any constructive criticism on how to make this better. Now some people have expressed constructive criticism in this thread and to those posters, I thank you for the classy manner in which you did so. Others have decided to come in and personally attack me or this contest for it not being just the way they want, which is regrettable, but that's just the way some folks are. But if you want something changed, that probably isn't the most efficient way to go about it.

Anyone who knows me knows I am a reasonable dude and am willing to admit when I'm wrong or I've made a mistake. The reason I opened the floor for suggestions in the VERY FIRST POST was to make this contest as enjoyable for all as possible. I thank those who have actually given constructive criticism and those who have participated and had fun with this event. And for those who have just come in here to be negative, I hope you're pleased with yourselves.

Now having said all of this, it does appear that there is some concern among multiple posters with AZ Snake being left off the list. Let me just make a few points on this.

1. I had to draw the lines on eligibility somewhere. If you make anyone eligible, it's not really a "hall of fame". I realize this may cut some quality posters out, but I think the restrictions are fair, and most seem to agree.

Thanks. That was my only problem with it. I do feel it's a popularity contest, to which others have agreed. That isn't a personal attack, that is a personal opinion. So what if it's a popularity contest, so are the yearly awards...whatever. My issue was AZ, that's been dealt with, so thank you.

I don't see how it can be a popularity contest. If enough people vote, they will vote who they feel is the best poster, there are enough people on here that it should really come down to quality, not friends on and off the board. Just my opinion, but I don't see how a forum could have a popularity contest... Maybe I'm missing something?

I tend to agree. The people who are leading in the voting right now are those who consistently post quality stuff and have over the years. The comedians and buddy-buddy posters who frequent the lounge and may be more "popular" than some of the more quality posters aren't faring quite as well in the voting. I think the first class will be a very quality one that most people can get behind.

Seriously, how hard is it for people who don't find these things appealing to just IGNORE the thread instead of coming in and criticizing it? It's really not that hard.

Because we all have an opinion and just because you don't like it, doesn't mean you get to turn it off.

Hall of Fame and AZ isn't even mentioned....makes it a joke right there.

You don't like the comment, ignore it.

I think this is what makes this a bit od a farce. A comment saying this is a joke if someone that rarely posts isnt elected kund of puts a damper on something that is barely afloat. There are enough reasons to dislike this thread (popularity contest, minimal requirements, etc) but pissing on it isnt the way to make it better.

My biggest problem is having probably 10 or more deserving people...and only 3 recipients. I believe the initial class should be expanded. Otherwise it will be obvious who the first few years of this will bring in. after the initial class, then limit it to 3.

Ehhh...who cares

Just an update on how the voting is going, I'm quite pleased so far. I think we've gotten as many as or at least close to as many votes so far as for any single BF award poll I can think of, and there are still 4 days left to vote. I'm quite please with that turnout.

As for how the results may shake out, it's an interesting race. The top two in voting are running away with it and seem to be a lock to get in. The race for the next 3 spots is wide open though. There are about 10 posters who have a realistic shot at claiming those last 3 spots and all 10 would be deserving of them.

The voting for those last few spots is razor-wire close right now, so if you haven't voted I strongly encourage you to do so. While some may think this is silly and not think it's a big deal, it might be an honor to others, so every vote counts.

Yeah but I did read the names and some on there seem to have a lot of nonsense to say and a lot of 1 sentence posts, which in turn adds to a large number of total posts. I feel I am a regular on here, don't post evey day, but do read almost every day.

And I'm not saying it for any other purpose than that is what it is. Otherwise AZ would be on that ******* list. ;)


I like the light attitude in here. You guys are a blast. Is AZ Arizona Snake?


Yes.

I remember a few months back when a young lady was introducing her new boyfriend to the ladies sitting behind me; he had my same 1st name. Later that day, I went to lunch & heard my name being called out. I turned & discovered that the lady was talking to some other guy. Two days later, I'm eating dinner when I hear my name being mentioned at a table with a couple of young ladies. That's right; they were talking about some guy that they knew.

At first I was puzzled when you kept referring to AZ, because it could also have meant me. However, I figure that probably was Arizona Snake even before I got to the post were bronconut ask you the question because I knew I didn't meet the criteria. That and the fact that you don’t comment on, nor salute, very many of my post made it unlikely that you would want to cast a vote for me. I’m not saying that to pout or make you feel bad, I was just me employing my deductive reasoning to make sense of what I was reading.

Nevertheless, it will take me 2 - 3 years to become eligible. At that time, I'll receive exactly 0 votes and will therefore become ineligible for years to come. After all, you are dead on about this being strictly a popularity contest.

Not sure why you took my post as an insult. I never said those those who post alot in the lounge aren't quality posters. Some of the people who will get in post in the lounge quite frequently, but also post quality stuff elsewhere. But the posters who almost primarily post in the lounge or just post alot of BS and don't really add much to Broncos talk aren't faring as well. Not saying that means they are bad posters though. The fact that you took that post as an insult says alot though.

Some of the people who will get in post in the lounge quite frequently, but also post quality stuff elsewhere. But the posters who almost primarily post in the lounge or just post alot of BS and don't really add much to Broncos talk aren't faring as well. Not saying that means they are bad posters though. The fact that you took that post as an insult says alot though.

You're right, it clearly implicates me as an enjoyer of comedy, lounge humor, and random babble... Not the kind of traits we're looking for in a quality poster.

Now, forgive me for interrupting the super cereal vote you've got going here.

:rolleyes: You guys suck. You are taking this way more seriously than it needs to be. No one gets anything out of it, other than glory. And even then, it's very short-lived glory. Vote or don't vote. Some people think this is fun, and will participate. If you don't like it, don't belittle those who do.

I wish everyone had this mindset. But as I said earlier, can't please everyone! Oh well, for the most part this contest seems to be going well, so I'm pleased.

That's true for those who are taking it seriously, Gnomey. But it
appears a lot of this is tongue-in-cheek. ;)

I have children who pick fights over stupid stuff. It's my job as mom to point out the absurdity and get them to stop it. Sometimes, this message board is no better than my kids.

Can we nominate Dream to the HoF? He's not here anymore, but is deserving IMO.

Just a heads up, voting ends tonight at 11:59 PM EST. So if you haven't gotten your votes in yet today is the last chance to do so.

It appears that everyone who is going to vote has voted, but nonetheless, this will be my final bump before the poll closes tonight unless we have any stragglers.

I'll post the winners at some point tomorrow.
