Congratulations Katrina71 for being EXCELLENT!!!

[DSC reef]

I think the excellence award is for someone who calls this forum home, loves the hobby and tries to make a difference weather by an opinion or helpful advice. If it came down to pure knowledge or how long you've been reefing then it's missing the point of being excellent. I'm sure there's many with vast information that aren't willing to help others while people who are new to the hobby are willing to share what they know to help others all while being able to learn from others.

We're not gonna close this thread. Everyone is welcome to their opinion in the proper place. This was not the thread to do it. A new thread should have been created to discuss. This thread was about you and your excellence and you are excellent!

Excellence to us is not specifically tied to one or even a few reasons for someone being a valuable member of the community. For example: People that go out of their way to welcome others and be friendly are excellent. People that are knowledgeable in the scientific aspect and share their knowledge with the community are excellent. If we're not friendly people will not join and will not engage. If we're not knowledgeable people will not learn and people will not stay.

The health of a reefing community isn't tied to just one or a few traits rather it's a combination of many positive things that keep our forum thriving. The day we begin to operate solely on a few attributes is the day we begin to lose our value as a community.

The man has spoken! Shall we move on now and talk about cute clownfish or something?

Congratulations. Don't feel embarrassed or humiliated. ^_^

The thread has been cleaned up. I don't know what exactly happened but any drama that occurred will be forgotten and unheard of going forward.

 

[Katrina71]

I'll still know.

I'll still know.

You'd know 1 (?) person said something and dozens of others disagreed.

Don't let the behavior of others get you down!

Keeping the banner is up to you but you DESERVE the award!! I see you everywhere while i browse through threads, always being helpful and kind. I follow the post about olly the mandarin and it was so so nice what you did for him and his owner!! The person in question got his feelings hurt because he wants the award. And a lot of times when people get there feelings hurt they just want to hurt others feelings. I know I'm guilty of that sometimes! I dont mean to drag the topic out, I just felt so bad reading your post that i had to say something! Please don't be humiliated you seem like such a great person!!
