Welcome to the Member of the Month nomination thread for October 2014!

Member of the Month is a competition that awards one special member each month for their contributions throughout the community. Every member has the potential to win the award, but the final decision is made by the combined efforts of the user base and forum staff. To learn more about how the competition works, click here!

The Nomination phase begins today and ends on Thursday, October 30th, 2014!

This is your chance to determine who gets placed on the poll. You may only nominate one person per month, so make your nomination count! To nominate a member, all you have to do is follow the guidelines in this thread and post your nomination as a response. No other posts (feedback, comments, etc) are allowed; they will be removed and the poster may be warned.

Any member that fits the following requirements is eligible to be nominated:

• Minimum of 500 posts
  
• 0% warning status
  
• Has not already been nominated in this thread
  
• Has not received the MOTM award previously
  
• Was not nominated in the previous month of the contest
  
• Non-staff member (you can still nominate mentors and ex-staff)
  
• Has contributed in some public way during the month of October (group forums do not count)
  
• Is not the user Froggy

A nomination post must contain the linked username of the member being nominated, followed by a minimum of three of their contributions that occurred within the month, and a reason why they deserve the award. Contribution links don't have to necessarily be threads, but can also be links to specific posts.

Use the following format to correctly nominate a member:
