Tell us who was a model member in September. What are we looking for? Service to the community, initiation of engaging conversations, having well-expressed insights, or just plain being friendly. Who makes this community a great place to be? Previously, we have honored shaxper for starting this whole crazy thing up, jasoomian for his work creating the front page, and mrp for his great contributions to discussion, with a little bit of modding on the side, and bronzeagebrian for his great work updating and maintaining the front page, and general service to the community. Our staff and community grow continually, it seems, and a lot of behind the scenes hard work is being done, which is worth recognizing. And of course, the most valuable piece of the community is the people who tell us interesting things about classic comics. So go ahead and vote! And remember... The M.M.M.s want you! The process: 1) Each month a thread for voting will be started, usually within a few days of the start of the next month 2) Either nominate a poster or vote for a poster who has already been nominated by posting in the thread. 3) Each member may make at most one nomination in addition to at most one vote on another nominee. 4) Each nomination should include a brief (sentence, say) explanation. Votes may or may not include this. 5) Voting will conclude precisely 1 week after the thread opens, and the winner will be announced soon after. Examples: If the person you wanted to nominate has already been nominated, then just vote for that person. If the person you want to nominate hasn't, then nominate them! Be sure to include an explanation After your nomination, if another great candidate is nominated, go ahead and vote for them as well.

I'd like to exercise my privilege to chime in this time and nominate Doctor Fate, a new member who came over with the Hall of Justice migration, but has made excellent efforts to participate in the community in the main, through creating fun and engaging threads.
A new member of the community who demonstrates that new blood can prove quite rewarding.

Coke & comics-you've got the wrong month is the first line of the post-should be Sept not August.
Doctor Fate is a great nomination. I am going to nominate Cei-U (Kurt) for everything from sharing Lash House with us at the beginnng to the Earth-2 thread, and everything in between, and doing it all while not feeling particularly well.

I'm gonna save Cei-U! for December. I'm already thankful for what he'll be doing then I really agree with the Doctor Fate nomination, but I'm going to table it for this month, as I recall another fantastic poster around here who did a similarly wonderful job of starting up a plethora of new conversation when the site started and also generated some really fun ideas for boosting our sense of community around here. His name? Coke & Comics.

We vote for us.
You're all stupid.
Also, we're hungry.

Gang of 5 is very tempting but Cei-U! gets my vote for always having some of the most insightful and enjoyable threads on CCF, and his latest guide to Earth-2 is fantastic.

I vote for Doctor Fate as well.
I had an idea. Can we create a sort of government where we elect members to various positions based on the ancient Roman Republic/Empire? Ya know, Consul's, Praetor's, etc? Shaxper, of course, would either be the Emperor or Dictator in Perpetuity depending on whether we want it to be a Republic or not. To add to the authenticity, I think we should all dress in authentic Roman garb while we're logged on.

As the resident anarchist, I am now looking around for the nearest lamppost with your name on it.

I apologize. I've been listening to an excellent history of Rome podcast and I got carried away. I was only in it for the costumes, anyway.

The lamppost solution would be very fitting, anyway, since that's how Mussolini ended up, & of course Rome is in Italy.
