We've done this once before. However, that was a while ago. I thought we had a good strategy, but this time I want to change things up a little. First, I hope to make it a regular monthly draw (depending on your reaction). Second, I don't think being a top poster is a fair enough characteristic of a certain winner, and it shouldn't be the single aspect of the award. I think we should look at the whole Top 10 and then compare them based on quality of their contributions. Only then we can reasonably conclude who the most helpful and valuable member was to HostingDiscussion.com in a given month. Third, I don't want it to become a contest that only praises the winners. All good contributors to our forum are highly valued and respected (and treated equally) and this contest should be considered to be a fun event that celebrates knowledge.

Having said that, in the search for the most helpful, most throughout and dedicated active member for the month of December 2008, I looked through last month's top contributors.

It is my pleasure to name handsonhosting the winner! A member who joined the forum back in early 2005 made his initial appearance (and what a strong one!) just in December!

This month's prize: A premium site-wide text-link at HostingDiscussion.com for a period of 1 month ($85 value).

Congrats to handsonhosting!
 
Wow - how cool was this, and I had no idea ;)

Yeah, I've been monitoring the forums here for a nubmer of years, but as you've seen, I really haven't been "ACTIVE" in helping due to being just swamped with business stuff here on my end. Over the past year we have grown in leaps and bounds, and I now get to spend much of my day "giving back" to communities that I have learned so much through. I still work heavily with configuration and programming of servers, but much of the sales & support of our busienss is now handled through other staff members.

Maybe one day I can take a vacation, but I doubt any time soon ;)

Thank you for the offer of the link. I really like the concept of it, and wish there was an easy way to "vote" by the community (I know some boards offer "kudos", but I don't remember if vBulletin offers such a module (or if it would be effective).

Again, thank you for the award. I'm a firm believer in karma, and it looks like I've received brownie points again ;)
