The purpose of a Hall of Fame is to honor a member or thread for their/its contribution to EoFF. This is no way having to do with popularity.
But, eh... yeah.
Yeah, this sounds just like the arguments we had about it in the staff forum. If you want to honor people, Prot, you should enter nice things about them in the Wiki.
But anyone can write anything in the Wiki. It really isn't a hall of fame. There is nothing here that can be considered a hall of fame.
Ed's thinking the same as I am. Bad things could just as easily be said as good in the wiki.
I agree with ed and Hsu. The Wiki is not really a Hall of Fame because it could just as well also be a Hall of Whatever Crap Anyone Wants To Post. But then again, someone has to actually to through the trouble of making one up and that's where everything kind of stops. No one really has time to do something like that and BoB is the one with all of the stats.
Then what about RM status? Or the Lifetime Achievement Awards?
The only reason anyone would want this is so they could see themselves in there.
Everyone knows who's done what, everyone recognizes the great contributions certain people have made to this place, everyone rewards them with love, respect, and heaps of custom ranks and Ciddies.
Do we really need anything else?
I question the motives of anyone who supports this.
I stand by my original statement. Evidently my PM has done nothing.

Awards given to Unne and Bleys, as a result of their years of effort put into EoFF. I don't remember when exactly they were given...it was quite a while ago.
It might have been advertised as a one-time deal, but maybe if they should be brought back?
You see. This is an example of what a Hall of Fame would be for. So that you would know what the Lifetime Achievement Award was for and who it was for so that you wouldn't be just wondering about it. Plus, all newbies should know who it really was that made this place what it is and not just say Who? when some oldbie posts.
Yeah, that would be a change for me. xDQuote:

I could head an UnOfficial Hall of Fame Committee for EoFF. Get a small number of members to join, and we can start on selecting who to induct into the Hall of Fame. Only if enough members are interested in joining. =P Not like it'll be Staff Approved. ^_^
As it has been stated before, we already have enough elitest popularity contests.
