Welcome to the 2011 BYOAC User Choice Awards Forum Contribution category voting poll!

Each user gets one vote so choose the user that best fits the broad definition below and really earned your trust and respect.  Feel free to post why you chose a certain user worthy of a pat on the back but don't feel obligated to reveal your vote.  

Forum contributions are defined for this competition as the most helpful forum members who exhibit a dedicated commitment to lending a hand, proffering sound advice, and going out of their way to ensure you can complete an awesome build

This year in the midst of highlighting some great projects we should take the time to highlight the users that help make the BYOAC the great online community that it is.  The following users were nominated by their peers and as such are awarded an honorable mention as one of the best forum contributors of 2011:

Saint & MKChamp, take a bow, you done good!


And now, the confirmed nominees for the 2011 BYOAC UCA Best Forum Contribution in no particular order:


DaOld Man

Ken Layton

DrVenture

Calamity

Loadman

Andy Warne

Rather than hyperlink to a thread of each user showing why they are so valued and respected I thought it better to just open this thread up to congradulatory comments.  The voting is just for fun as all of these users, the nominated and the confirmed, are the reasons why BYOAC is what it is.  Many thanks for doing what you do!

Please be sure and check out the four other categories and cast your vote on each:
2011 Full Size Voting Poll
2011 Software Contribution Voting Poll
2011 Hardware Contribution Voting Poll
2011 Small and Non-Standard Voting Poll

I just wanted to say that I have personnaly done business with, gotten help directly from, or sorted out conundrums with 4 of the 6 listed and all were awesome to deal with and infinetly helpful.  I am sure the same can be said for the other two as well... otherwise they never would have made the list.  I cast my vote for the user that I have gained the most from but would have gladly cast a vote for each one.  We all like to build awesome stuff and tear eachother apart from time to time but I for one will try to strive to make myself the type of user who could end up on this list someday.  The others are nice recognition but this list I view as truly an honor and you gentlemen are very deserving.   :applaud:
