(JC)WebAwards Part 3
This is the final part of this years (JC)WebAwards and I am proud to say this years awards went well. Today I will talk about the staff on the sites I visit most. These five forums all deserve attention from the internet community and I am applauding their staff because if it wasn't for the staff the sites would not exist.
I will talk about my favorite staff member from each of the five sites and what I see in the future for these sites.
1Up - As you obviously know from my past awards 1Up is not on my good list. Due to to lack of immaturity I don't enjoy going their much. However one staff member has made 1Up a better place he responded respectfully and maturely on more than one occasion to my threads. He refrained from using foul language and acted like every MOD should. Paul Gale wins the awards of being top Mod for 1Up.com
Nintendo - Nintendo.com is my home site I visit there a lot and love the sites members and staff. However the winner is sort of default. I have had run ins with him in the past (He banned me) a few weeks after I joined. I didn't know why I got banned and he respectfully told me. He acted professionally and respectfully. Later on he closed the News and PowerOnRP boards but I think despite our disagreements he is by far the most active member of the NOA staff in making our community a better place to use. The Top MOD award for Nintendo.com is NOA_Andy
E-Mpire Media - (X-BoxRaw...etc..etc..)- Nintendonow.com is where I go if Nitnendo.com disappoints I love the site's freedoms. Despite all of its freedoms users behave properly and professionally. The staff at NNOW are by far the best staff I have ever gotten along with. Members like Mach and Viper make every visit memorable. The staff is so nice it was very hard to pick one that I think deserved the award. I would say they all do but then there wouldn't be a winner. The odd time I have had differences with the staff of this site but they always act appropriately so It was a tuff call but I'm giving the Top MOD award for E-Mpire Media to Omega.
GamersHell - Again GamersHell is yet another close one. The staff members at GamersHell make the site pleasant to visit and the members often refrain from negative posts. However since I don't have much history at GamersHell one staff member stands out.The winner of Top MOD (Staff Member) for GamersHell is NXS
Gamerswatch - GamersWatch is such a small site. Im helping some of N-siders best and brightest make a new forum. The GamersWatch forum currently has very few members and could use some help and publicity. With a growing site staff are very busy and have to work round the clock to make things work. As GamersWatch begins to take form you have to admire those working so hard to create a site that might get overlooked anyway. For all of his efforts I give the Top MOD award to GamersWatch founder TGW_Thomas.
I will now give my final words of recognition to each of the winners.
Paul_Gale - Good job you are a very good writer and even better MOD keep doing what you do and good things will happen to you.
NOA_Andy - I think I speak on behalf of all N-Siders we love your work ethic. You are by far the person who contributes the most to help run the Nintendo N-sider forums and with that responsibility on your sholders you continue to take time out of your schedule to help N-Siders and Nintendo Fans. Great Job!
Omega - Since I joined the boards I have noticed you are great member of E-Mpire media. Your a good MOD keep it up.
NXS - Good job you are the most active in the main board from what I've seen you care about the members of your board and your efforts benefit the members. Keep it up!
TGW_Thomas - Its a lot of work to start a forum and you continue to work hard at creating it. Many websites and forums fail within months lets see you be successful, Good Luck and keep it up!
All in all to all the staff members who didn't win awards don't take offence most of you are great MODS and staff. If you aren't (You already know) I wish you the best of luck for next years awards go out and be all you can be.
