We have a new Most Engaging Poster Contest for forum members with 10 $500 cash prizes ($5,000 in total prizes) and categories based on the forum join date!

You can enter here.

All members need to enter by themselves in order to qualify for prizes.

All posts made prior to the contest period will count and all posts made during the contest period will count seven times more.

All previous contest winners will be eligible to win with the following limitations: previous $5000 winners and $500 winners - only their posts after the end date of the last contest that they won will count.

Not sure If I entered because I don't see the green thing with the number on the right side. Shouldn't it say 0 if I entered the contest?

How can you tell if you're a "member in good standing"?

I used to enter these contests. However, some of the Most Engaging Poster winners have won because they are caustic and/or make outlandish comments. If those members are in good standing, you set the bar pretty low. Sure, they may get people riled up and posting, but it reflects poorly on the selection process of the winners.

I've been in enough trouble and one more screwup and out of here. That tends to dictate my standing here.

Ohhh! I know there have been several posts I made over my 9 months here that have been moody and some argumentative. I never was reported, so hopefully I'm still in good standing. For my New Year resolution... being less moody and negative this year.
