Welcome to the 420 Magazine Member of the Month Contest

420 Magazine would like to include not only our valued growers, but also more of our non-growing members in this contest. We are by no means excluding growers from the Member of the Month Contest, but we feel that our Plant and Nug Contests are already serving these members pretty well. Please help and support us in this effort.

Specifically, we're looking to thank those members that help and support our site in so many under recognized ways, such as:
  • Greeting new members
  • Helping people with questions
  • Peacemakers
  • Activism efforts
  • Promoting our sponsors
  • Activity and content generation
  • Reporting violations
420 Magazine Staff will select nominees, members determine the winner by poll. This does not prohibit members from suggesting nominations to a Moderator via private message. When doing so, include detailed reasoning for your nomination. Please do not nominate or suggest nominations in the contest thread, or it will be deleted without notice.

The contest will be open from the 1st until the 14th at midnight PST. At one minute past midnight on the 15th, we will begin voting for a winner.

The winner earns "Member of the Month" title, 420 Mag T-Shirt, Bic 420 Magazine Lighter, 420 Mag Stickers, 420 Magazine Magnet, Medium 420 Magazine Nug Jar & Small 420 Magazine Nug Jar

With so many contests and even more winners, we unfortunately don't have the time and resources to offer organizing the 'gifting' of prizes anymore. Due to the nature of numerous, confusing logistics involved, delivery times get pushed back weeks waiting for everyone to reply with contact information, which causes delays in getting prizes to everyone. This causes a massive drain on our resources when everyone starts asking where their prizes are and why it's taking so long, some have even gone as far as to complain in public about us being lazy stoners, which couldn't be further from the truth. Mistakes in translations have also occurred, wasting valuable time, energy & shipping costs. Obviously you may pass prizes on yourself, and you are more than welcome to contact the sponsor yourself with a 'gifting' request.

Monthly winners are automatically eligible for our prestigious "Member of the Year" contest, held in January.​

Contest Guidelines:

1. Members must have at least 50 posts to be entitled to vote.

2. 420 Magazine staff members submit nominees and rationale in the contest thread.

3. Promotion (i.e. campaigning) for yourself or a friend, or any attempt at voting more than one time per person (i.e. multiple user names, etc.) is considered cheating and is prohibited. Promotion also includes family and friends who register a new account for voting purposes. Campaigning in any form - including but not limited to mentioning the nomination in any thread outside the contest and campaigning via PMs - will result in the member being removed from the month's contest. A second instance, either in a different contest during the same month or in any future contest, will attract a lifetime ban from all future contests.

4. Past winners are ineligible for 6 months from date of win.

5. Staff members from this or any other cannabis forum/community will not be nominated.

6. In accepting the Member of the Month title, prize(s), and the respect of the members, the winner agrees to wear his/her title with honor and to continue to set the example with his/her actions and posting behavior. To retain the Member of the Month title, the winner must remain compliant with contest rules and site guidelines.

Contests Are Legitimate: Now that votes are publicly visible, it should be obvious who is voting. We have endless ways of discovering cheating and are always successful. If you are caught cheating, your entry will be deleted and you'll be called out in the public thread, visible to everyone. Reason being that in the past, when we removed the offending entry without any announcement (to help minimize embarrassment for the member), it often led to uninformed (or worse, misinformed) members questioning our motives and calling us censorship nazi's. More often than not, the cheater themselves would claim innocence, causing a higher workload for our staff. For these reasons, we now alert the community of what happened, to save all the confusion and massive workload on our team.

All comments are edited from members' nominations.

Old Salt
“Old Salt is a blessing to the forum. When new members arrive, he's always one of the first to offer a warm welcome. When there is trouble Old Salt provides very detailed and in depth answers to your problem. Forums like this thrive because of members like him. For the time and effort he puts on daily I honestly believe he should be nominated and recognized as a nominee for this month.”

KItchenhawk
“I wish to nominate Kitchenhawk. He is very helpful and giving to the community with his amazing strain crossings. Excellent contest entries, now doing a High Brix grow and a nice guy as well.”

Gr865
“He runs a good journal and is super-helpful to members. He doesn’t just stick to his own journal, but can be found around the forums, on others’ journals, in Cannabis Oil, Rosin threads and FAQs. He’s absolutely 420 Magazine and deserves recognition.”

Jackalope
“Jackalope is highly active, starting interesting conversations in the Lounge, chipping in with useful comments elsewhere and running an unusual journal of random genetics. He’s very good on strains and breeding. Worth considering for MOTM”

TurboBucket
“TurboBucket knows his hydroponics and is active, helpful and supportive where he knows what he’s talking about. I think he’s also a good supporter of the sponsors – I’ve seen him make nice comments to them. He runs a sponsored grow, and comments on LED questions and concentrates too. Always see him in the contests as well. An all-round good guy to have around!”

Backlipslide
“I'd like to vote for Backlipslide: Wherever I go I see him there, helping people and he gets conversations going on people's threads.” “A humble greeter, avid helper and all around good guy of the threads.”
