I'm a little on the fence about Natural Mystic (he's the one who made the massive "Sony disappointment timeline" thread in SW so I'll have to do some investigative work on the rest of his posting history before I can give a definitive answer either way.

I'm okay with everyone else on that list.

THE-VERY-BEST  he doesn't seem to bash anything.

SYLUXELITE maybe

NATURAL MYSTIC No

HEEDLE GALIN - No

Heedle Gavin should come in, she's a really good poster from what I see in SW.

JJ, Fuzzy might have a point. I may be "newer" than some, but I think the standards you've had are beggining to rise to the point that, as Fuzzy said, some of our existing members might not qualify for. It's probably just me, but I do see something as being a little bit off.

Just my 2 cents....I mean no insult by this comment.

I forgot about Mystic's thread on Sony sorry. But as for the others I think they can be let in.

hmm, maybe I was being too strict. Also, I was going off of what I've seen from the posters rather than going through post histories like I typically do, so that may have been a mistake. Keep in mind though, I'm just throwing out opinions. If I have a very serious issue with someone coming into the union, then I may start to whip out the crown and bust some heads, but all I'm doing now is giving you guys my opinion. Perhaps I've closed my mind to new members a bit too much though. We should try to get some set guidelines in place though, and I will start taking steps towards getting that accomplished right away. And yes, everyone will be included in the discussion.JJGY

Spartan070?CJL13

I'd say yes.

[QUOTE="CJL13"]Spartan070?The_Game21x

I'd say yes.

I suggest Cook66.

He joined the backup board and is asking to be reviewed for entrance to GUFU. I will edit this post with my decision after I have taken the chance to review his posting history later.

And with that I'm in:D!!! What's up everybody??? Thanks for sending me the invite.cyborgjak427

I'd like to nominate the-very-bestBuryMe

[QUOTE="BuryMe"]I'd like to nominate the-very-bestTeufelhuhn

I live in Norway Cook66

First and foremost, welcome to the union! But on to this part, which part of Norway do you live in? I'm half Norwegian myself (dad came from Bergen and most of my family live there, some in Narvik and near Oslo too) and am just a bit interested to know which part. I consider myself mainly Norwegain because of this strong heritage, even though I can barely speak the language. :'(

Back on business (after Cooks' post caught my attention).

What do you guys think of TekkenMaster606? I think he can be a bit erratic at times in his points and in his attitude, but more often than not he voices his opinion well and at least obeys the rules of grammar, punctuation and sentence structure. You say that we can allow fans into the GUFU, so long as they have good opinions and reasoning, which I definitely think he does have. Plus he owns a 360 too and seems to respect the Wii. From what i've gathered, despite owning a 360, he's a Sony fan at heart (all things Sony - not just their consoles as he claims to have a Sony Style card and is a member of their store). This is good for the union in my opinion as they are a dying breed these dark days. It helps bring in a little diversity. Plus his knowledge of old games and systems is second only to Panzer_Zwei. I don't really recommend users much, but he seems solid after reading his opinions these past months.

Your thoughts?

-Spock-

50/50, he does act Sonyish but does have good reasons and will listen to arguments. Do you think SW will take kindly to him in GUFU considering their status on him?

Hmmm, that's a good point. I reckoned he seemed like good union material despite his occasional swings towards Sony (well, he is a Sony Style customer after all so he knows his stuff). But now that you mention it, I doubt he would accept an invite. He's more of a lone wolf on the SW board than the kind of guy you may expect to be part of one big entity. I agree with you, something is telling me that despite his intelligence and knowledge, he probably won't even consider joining let alone participate in another forum. He's the same with Shirley_Temple, a great user but doubtful whether they would join a union lke this. It's like having superb paint, but the wrong kind of canvas.

But in the future guys, try to wait a bit before shipping out invites. Obviously, some people only post here once a week or so and we want to make sure we hear any complaints against a nominee.JJGY

It means that we get the required amount of votes in now, but wait a week before we send the invite in case there's any objection from rarely active members.

"Wait period? hell after a week no one will have any interest left."

"But in the future guys, try to wait a bit before shipping out invites. Obviously, some people only post here once a week or so and we want to make sure we hear any complaints against a nominee"

You see, it ain't about interest levels in the user, it's about clarification of the final vote.
