Matt here
Last year right around this time, Sergio and myself held the 1st Annual U2Start Awards. The idea behind them was to recognize some of this site's popular (or unpopular
) boarders, and also let newcomers in on the fun behind the forums.We would like to open this topic to encourage conversation about this year's "awards voting and ceremony"! If we held the exact same awards that we did last year, the same people would probably win and that's no fun. At the same time, some of the categories are sort of essential and fun to vote for, so some of them will stick around.
Please suggest categories for the awards!!! That is part of what this thread is all about! Sergio and I will be taking your ideas into consideration and release a master list of categories when voting opens.
