Hey everybody;

We'd like to announce a new program we are going to start soon called "New Member of the Month". As its name would suggest, this program is designed to recognize a recently joined member who has come in and already has begun contributing positively to the site. These are the kind of new members who exemplify what Overclock.net is all about; the pursuit of performance and a clean, professional atmosphere in which to discuss it - and for that, we think it would be nice to give those folks a little extra recognition when they might otherwise get lost in the shuffle simply because of the massive amounts of activity here on OCN.

Essentially, here is how this will work: It's already too late to start for November, so come the end of December either myself or one of the other managers will post a call for nominations for that month's outstanding new member. Nominations will be PMed to that staff person, and within a week we'll have gone through them and decided whom the recipient shall be based both on nominations and our review of the person's posts and other interactions on the site. At that time the winner will be publicly announced, we will bestow upon them something nice (yet to be decided on), and the process will begin all over again.

We welcome any questions, comments, or concerns you may have; and as always thanks for helping to keep Overclock.net one of the finest tech forums out there!

I'd have to say since I joined in October 2008, this has been a pleasant experience!

Everyone is polite and genuinely wants to help.

It's a new obsession and my wife has called me on it a few times already.

I also noticed that you guys do a great job at maintaining this site and new ideas like this will only help our membership and highlight those among us that deserve the recognition for their efforts.
