Everyone please vote on what we should do for the mini-awards. I'd at least like to get the opinion of all those who donated. Remember, all votes remain confidential. The poll will close in one week then I will do what the majority wants.

hello...I owe a lot to this forum...but my impression is...humm...is the donation quotation representative of the textual, experience contribution with posts? in other words, who is the best participant, the guy with xxxx USD gievn, the guy with xxxx posts, or the one with quality advices and experience written here? will the person with xxxx usd given to help this place be for the beginner getting in here the best adviser on collecting?
I think even small contributions on small and subjects are worth long debates, and this is only an example as we all too know how vast , gigantic is our field of collecting.
It is not question in my mind to criticize the donation system. It is necessary to help Art in its work.
But is such a classification really necessary in front of growing masses of more and more skilled fakers???? (argh Sauron is back!?

)

Guys, I thought it would be best if I posted a poll and let everyone (particularly those who generously donated ) voice their opinion. Some may feel more comfortable anonymously voting rather than openly discussing the issue..I will of course follow the will of the masses.

hello Dannybou, sorry if I haven't been clear enough...I'm not against giving some money to make living the forum! I think a graduation is superfluity...that's all.
It's up to me (it's time for me?) to donate, but I don't want a good notation like a pupil...please do not take it as an aggressive thinking, this is only an opinion!
best, sebastien
EDIT: excuse me Dolf, I mixed two persons!!!

Guys,
I think I would also prefer a simpler recognition system - either just one badge or three-four levels max.

Guys,
How about applying the KISS principle here? I definitely agree with Dolf and Alexei. The important aspect is to distinguish donors from non donors. Beyond that, it is simply superfluous.
