TL of the month? Why not?
How come we don't nominate people for TL of the month and etc.
I think it's a great way to get to know members and etc...
Ethan can you do something about this?

.:KCCO:.
a note on getting to know the members better, it would be nice to have like a set of questions for the TL member of the month to answer to really get to know their personality and vehicle.
not necessarily have all the same questions but have a person come up with random ones like an interview as well

TL of The Year...
As owner of the TL of the Year, I'd like to thank...
Leedogg, for bravely buying a WDP and thereby giving up his opportunity to receive this prestigious award
Steve66 for buying an ASM for the same reason
Brettallica for not only buying white, but making it even whiter
All the threads that allowed me to show my baby to a world that needed to see it
The VIP Crew for mostly buying white TLs and supporting my rise to glory
Rosenthal Acura for seeing my vision as I did and getting me the car I needed
All of my fellow NBP'ers who have ardently supported me over the years
Last but not least...world peace!
Thank you! Thank you! Love you all! World peace!

Of course, I could never be a fan of voting for a TL of the month or otherwise, because even if "I" were to ever win, I would feel like someone else's hard work was slighted. I'm not into fan favorite anything as it tends to become a tool to alienate. So a spotlight TL, yeah, but a this TL looks the hottest thing, naahh! Besides, I only joined the forum to mod my TL, learn some good info about it, and to hang out with some cool people that I otherwise might never had known. Like in real life, I'm ostentacious, I love to talk and joke around, so it just transitions from there to here. Think people can tell that? LOL! In every public circle I've ever been in (school, work, etc.), I've talked trash! Meh, if people knew me, they'd just say, "Ah that's just Ray being Ray! He don't mean nothing by it". So folks should apply that here. Generally, they do. Glad, because I love being here.
Damn, this almost sounds like a bio or acceptance speech! Hahahaha!

I don't know if the moderators have these sort of tools at their disposal, but I think I have an idea of how we could start doing this "featured TL" thing.
First, the moderators will go through and see which members are the most active. This way, people who are actually checking out the site and posting and looking at pictures regularly will be the ones who're being featured. Instead of doing some sort of randomization, where people who rarely check out the site suddenly have a featured TL, there will be meaning and relevance as far as which TLs are selected.
From that pool of "highly active" members, the moderators will select a new TL every so often and give it the "feature treatment." I think once every month is probably too infrequent, as we have a lot of egos to pacify, so maybe once every two weeks would be better. I feel this is an adequate amount of time to have a TL featured, commented on, suggestions given to, ragged on, etc. before moving on to the next one.

It should be on the criteria of External mods, performance mods, interior mods, overall cleanliness, with great pictures, videos would be a plus. Make a thread and let people post A picture of their car providing a link to additional pictures and let people vote.

My suggestion to simply have a moderator feature a car based on a few criteria, such as how often a member frequents AZ, how long they've been a member, how "different" their car is from stock, and such. I say use this criteria only as a "tiebreaker" of sorts in that maybe the ones that aren't modified all that much don't really get too much attention in the beginning.

Thats what I was thinking Brett. Nothing to crazy. Just feature one a month.
If you guys want Ill just pick one each month at random....
Actually a month seems a little long. Maybe every two weeks..

Sounds like a plan - the Featured TL of the month.......just don't leave out the guys who haven't gone mod crazy......nothing wrong with a slightly stock TL....

Just an idea for like 07 maybe pick out TL of the month (TLTM) and then when we get a full year like 12 maybe make a calander to sell featuring those TLs from a year to sell.. create more $$$ for the forum
Besides we all know if you picked them... All AM would win in which they should

If I were you, I'd worry what'll happen if I'm not picked.

You can see how difficult this would be if we had to vote! I say: mods take this over using the information already in this thread and run with it the way you want. My personal preference is to do one every two weeks, as that will keep it "fresh", but I'll be here either way looking at pics and dropping opinions, so it doesn't really matter all that much to me.

.:KCCO:.
as long as were not racist about it, it should be cool. I mean cmon guys, does color really matter? WDP? AM? SSM? NBP? etc. under the color of our paint, were all the same, sexy pieces of metal. ever since the creation of the clear coat, we are all equal. we are a world of stage 3 paint. there is no need to use the color as an identifier.
side note, since trance is picking the cars, i would like to start a pot that 70% of the winners are going to be AM hahahaha
