I am sure there are awards I will be adding to help fill up the list.

Actually I didn't ;)
Can't wait to see some of your ideas you have Omni. I have some suggestions but I'll hold off on them and see what you come up with.

A nice addition indeed is that.
I don't want to sound like a grammar nazi here, ahem, but there seems to be a slight slip in the description listed below:
Star of Sharing - Earned by members that have seeked information and shared it with others.
Sorry, but I believe that saying members who have 'sought' information would sound better
as 'seeked' as such doesn't really exist, well not in the online dictionaries below, among others that I have entered it into anyway
and as 'sought' is the past tense of seek I believe that it sounds better.

I apologize for bringing it up, or maybe seeming pedantic but I believed
it was worth mentioning.

So, what part of that was you not being a grammar nazi?
Just curious.

Okay, I hadn't used that phrase before I saw it maybe here, but I cannot swear to that. If it wasn't here,
then it was at the other site which I shouldn't need to name at present because not so long ago,
there were quite a few who were saying that they didn't really want to see that name here.
I can't recall who it was now, but 'grammr nazi' was and maybe still is, part of their signature.
Anyhow, there are others either here or there, who are more into mentioning slips in grammar than I am
and they have previously mentioned errors, not only to other members, but also to the boss here as well.
At one time in the past, I used to do some proof reading at a place of employment, so I guess that old habits die hard as they say.
My intent was just to point out what looked to me like an error that's all and it wasn't intended in a bitchy manner or anywhere near anything like that.
It was more a case of thinking what any guests or new members may have thought if they saw that, was what prompted me to mention it.

Hehe, well it's a little hard to tell sometimes.
BTW - Congrats on being the 1st to get an award here!
Along with M.o.T.U, I also think that you should get another award for getting the first award here as well....
Ya know like:
The first award award - The award given to the member who earned the first award.
Although that would be a little exclusive though methinks...;)
Oh yeah, when you said you were only messin around,
erm, messin should have really said messin', with the ' at the end.
Now just to make it clear, I am just messing around there as well,
because I don't go to those sort of extremes.
