GMJAP is Member of the Month (MOTM) for June 2006.Congratulations Walter!This month GMJAP received this nomination:Quote, originally posted by "MOTM ballot" »Reason:He is always quick to post help for people with problems, especially in audio and electronics related topics. He even had a thread (that I can't seem to find anymore) where he was collecting failed stock radios and using them to make parts available to members. Great guy, friendly, helpful, the kind of person that really deserves to be member of the month.Last month, he also received this nomination:Quote, originally posted by "MOTM ballot" »Reason:GMJAP (Walter K.) is a valuable asset to the members of GenVibe forums. A quick search of his contributions to the "Audio, Electronics, Electrical" forums shows what a knowledgable and resourceful individual he is. I've personally used his information on the remote Panic button to make my own and have purchased and installed his audio locking alert chip (great mod that should be standard). In addition, he's been very helpful on acquiring replacement parts for radios and interior components. I got a couple of replacement radio buttons for the cost of shipping only. I've been fortunate enough to meet Walter in-person, and have found him to be as helpful and intelligent as his participation in the forums. For these reasons, I nominate GMJAP as MOTM.I personally have benefitted from having GMJAP be an active member of the forum. I have really enjoyed the distributed iterative development we did for a couple of various electrical tweaks. I've got a lot of respect for him, and I appreciate all he contributes to making genvibe such a worthwhile place. I'm glad he's an active member of genvibe, and is definitely one of the members I would have nominated for MOTM if I didn't run the thing. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-This month there were only two nominations, one each for GMJAP and Colonel Panic.Carry overs from April nominations were BlueCrush, ColonelPanic, GMJAP, millster, and northvibe. All deserve to be MOTM but there can be only one. (well, only one per month ) Nominations are now good for 3 months, so BlueCrush, ColonelPanic, millster and northvibe are all automatically in the running for July MOTM.To nominate someone for MOTM (even if they are already nominated) use the MOTM Ballot Form. It's not really all that difficult, you'd think it was a tax form judging from how few people care enough to bother.There have been seven previous MOTM winners, so if you missed their threads before, you can still let them know how you think they deserve to be MOTM:Kari - May 2006ZubenElGenubi - April 2006POLO - March 2006MIVibe-ToolGuy - February 2006NSimkins - January 2006tnpartsguy - December 2005jahntassa - November 2005

Thanks Zuben & KariQuote, originally posted by ZubenElGenubi »I'm still not crazy about your handle ( ) , My Dad thought it was in poor taste too when I told him about GenVibe & the meet last Fall. The negative connotation didn't really occur to me at the time I came up with it. Guess the awareness of that is something of a generational thing, or maybe I'm just terribly tactless. I certainly didn't intend it in an offensive manner.Either way I thought about changing it, but it seems a little late.
