"Forum Sweetie" and "Services to Ham" don't really seem that relevant anymore.

Post by: HurricaneAndrew on December 17, 2013, 02:16:26 PM
Along with best avatar, signature, etc., I think there should be an overall best profile for having good combinations in their profile.

Best Art Bot, Best Joke Bot and Best Multi-weightclass Tournament Team would be interesting.

The more you shave, the less "peach fuzz" it is. It gets more coarse over time after you start shaving it.

They don't even want that they just do it because it's "cool".

Having to shave sucks. I didn't even purposely participate in No-shave November. I was just too lazy to shave all month.

I meant to keep the other profile awards, but have an overall, as well. Like for people that make their avatar, text and signature coincide with a particular theme.

Unless you would object to it.

You've forced it for so long, and for literally no reason. So please stop.

Also I'll switch that, Andy - does make more sense.
