I think he is insinuating that staff members would only name older members because most of the staff here tend to stick with the older generation.

I think you should have to be here for at least a little while and have contributed a decent amount to the family to qualify. And what you contribute should be of a higher quality and have made an impact on the site or our operations.

I'd say at least be a member for a few months and have contributed either something we can't think of living without or have put lots of time and effort into keeping the site up and running. Otherwise, a "hall of fame" looses its meaning when the average Joe can get in.

I agree with «Ð▪ℳ»

Pretty much what I have been trying to say all the time, only that I think there should be no one with less than 4 months of active part taking.

See, now we've come to an understanding, praise TIM.

Hall of fame should also include dedication and loyalty. Even an average joe who poured time and passion should deserve a spot.

Agreed.

Hall of Fame is meant to recognize those that have gone over and above the call of duty, so to speak. That doesn't necessarily mean the older generation, but unfortunately they tend to be the ones that have done that, with the odd exception of a newer member. If you start to just let anyone in simply to 'recognize' them, even though they may not meet the typical criteria of eligibility, then you completely defeat the purpose of the Hall of Fame and then, at that point, you might as well just change the name to 'Member of the Month'. I agree that we should stay within the boundaries of what this truly is meant for and, for the others that are on the lower rungs of the ladder making their way up, have something different to recognize them.

Just a thought...
