Does that mean he is the oldest Guru?  :baffled: Or been a Guru the longest?  Or one of the best Guru's?  :stumped:

Congratulations Paul!  :clapper:

Hey AZWinger  :waving:  (1) He is the oldest "Guru" at 62yrs.  (2) Jason was the first "Guru:clapper:

(3) exavid is a good "Guru" and spends a lot of time on the forum. :clapper:

His promotion is well deserved. :clapper:

Congrats!:weightlifter:

I'm embarrassed, but then I guess my manila envelope reached Ireland okay.

Exavid,

:clapper::goofygrin::goofygrin::clapper:Congrats on your promotion. Is it like most promotions. You get the title but no extra money. Whoops, that's right, you don't get paid for this.  :skipping:

A view of Mount Rainier and an exalted title-it seems appropriate for a good guy.

Why is it that you always spot these things first Redwing?
Well I think I spoted something that you missed :P. I see Vic (Goldwinger1984) got the promotion to Senior Guru as well. Well done lads, with all the quality posts and dedication you guys have shown here I think it was a mark of respect from Steve and Ciaran. Even though you don't get paid, isn't it nice to know you are appreciated. :clapper: :clapper:

I had a look to see if the forum faqs were updated to reflect this and indeed they were;

"...Also, those members who have proved helpful to other users in the Technical Forum and who know their stuff about Goldwings will have the "Guru" title, regardless of number of posts. "Senior Guru" is for the Guru members who have been around a while and who visit the forum regularly and posted a very high number of helpful messages. "Guru" and "Senior Guru" titles are generally given out at the request of other forum members who nominate the particular members to the Administrator or Moderator, who in turn have a look at the nominated members posts before deciding to apply the new title. It's all about doing something different from other forums and having a bit of fun!"

The MANA isn't very accurate, or maybe the algorithms that make it work are a bit odd. Either that or enough of the members don't bother to use it enough.

Well done Vic and Paul. Redwings started what I can see being another long thread. I know it's only a title for Vic and Paul, but it is a mark of appreciation and it's attention to little details like that from the forum bosses that make this place such a pleasure to be a part of. Most forum owners wouldn't even bother to acknowledge the efforts of the guys using it, so it's good to know that we do get noticed here.
Well done once again. I always enjoy reading the posts from our two new Senior Gurus.

Redwing reads all the posts and misses nothing, except when he mislays his glasses. Congratulations on the promotion lads, it's well deserved and there are a lot of Wing owners out there (forum members and people that just lurk) who have been helped out by your knowledge.

I missed Goldwinger1984's promotion as well!  Maybe Redwing and I both need new glasses.:cool:

Another well deserved promotion! :clapper::clapper:

Keep up the good work guys!

Attaboy!!!  I know I want to thank you for your input and help on several issues for me.  Of course that is along with the rest of you guys too.  The whole forum is a wonderful resource and outlet.  What's her name thinks its weird how you can get personal with people you've never met and probably never will.  It is interesting creating your own conceptions of personalities of the guys you interact with on this medium.  Heck, Winnipeg is about the centre of North America, perhaps this would be the place for a Saunders Ho-Down.  The fellas across the pond, your due for a North American vacation.

Well done boys. :clapper: :clapper:.
I was one of the people who nominated Vic & Paul for a different title. I think Steve and Ciaran must have worked with Vic & Paul to get a suitable title. I was suggesting the likes of "Elder Guru" and some other tags, but "Senior Guru" is definitely more appropriate and definitely well deserved.

Willy is right, things like this add character to the forum and makes it a fun place to hang out.
