    Welcome to the Second LPA Forums Awards! Well I have to admit, the first awards where a lot better then these but it doesn’t matter! We still get to see who all the winners are in the end! Firstly, I’d like to thank all the people who voted. It was a bit strange to see who everyone voted for. I would of never guessed some of you would vote for those people you voted for! Well as you all would know, in the last awards everyone who won got a little thing to put in their sig. For these awards, I wanted to give out a first and second for each category so it would be a big job to make 28 thing or maybe even more. So all you winners, if you like, you can put a little thing in your sig saying something like:
    1st / 2nd Place – Best Member In The Whole World Award!
    Anyone else who puts something in who didn't win will die :chemist: . Ask me if you want a code or want to know what to put in there!
    Now to the good bit… Lets see who won!


    <div align=center>Personal Favorite</div>

    Wow, the first winner for the first category! Well the first winner of this award was Will. I’m sorry Will mate, but it’s now time to hand the award over to someone else, but you will remain in the history books forever. The second winner of the Personal Favourite Award is the dazzling Derek! You deserve this award heaps :)

    Now for the 2nd place! The winners of the second place were very close to Derek. Did you see I said winners? That’s right, the 2nd place is going to 3 people today. Dedicated, EastCoastPunk and Will!


    <div align=center>Most Random Person</div>

    Who is the most random person you ask? That is an easy question! Just go have a look in the Random Thoughts topic and you will see his random and funny sentences all over the place! The past winner was Keaton and he takes this award out again! Congratulations Keaton! Thanks for being the most random person on the forums! Everyone always gets a good laugh out of your thoughts!

    We also had more then 1 winner for second place in this award and everyone that came after was close as well. I’d like to congratulate the winners of second place, the not-as-random-as-Keaton, Chris and EvilAmy!


    <div align=center>Funniest Member</div>

    The winner of this award surely didn’t come as a surprise to me and I’m sure it won’t be to you also. We do need a lot of laughter here on the LPA and it’s that funny guy KEATON who gives it! He won the last award and then this one! Thanks for being funny! All the members are grateful you are here to make them laugh :)

    Wow, it’s the first award that there wasn’t 2 or more winners for 2nd place. Everyone has got to admit, the next guy is a funny guy as well. Always coming out with weird things and being stupid in a funny way with all the other members. 2nd place goes to Chris!


    <div align=center>Best Writer</div>

    How did this person win this award you ask? Just go have a look in the Writers Cove and see read all their amazing lyrics. This person is one great writer, one of the best I know. He took out the award the first time, and now he wins it again! Congratulations to Will!

    The winner of 2nd place is a very good writer. He is also one of the best I know. How did Will and DEREK get so good at what they do? Well that’s something you will have to ask them! Well done Derek.


    <div align=center>Best Graphics Artist</div>

    This would have been a very difficult choice to pick who you wanted to win this. There are so many amazing graphic artist on these forums but ever since Derek showed everyone his site, we all knew he was by far the best. Nice work, Derek!

    There isn’t anything bad you could say about the 2nd place winners work. He makes great sigs for people as well as a lot of other awesome stuff. Well done to the previous 1st place winner, LinkinJunior, for taking our 2nd this time.


    <div align=center>Most Intelligent Member </div>

    The winner of this award won by a lot of votes. His smartness is outstanding (I used a big word… therefore I should win :p ). He won it last time and then again this time! Congratulations Mr smart guy Will, for winning this award 2 times now. Shows you that people do stay smart for a long time…

    The 2nd place winner didn’t surprise me at all. I could tell who would win 1st and 2nd in this award before you all started voting! Just look around the forums and you will see the intelligence of Will and LPFAN05 in all their posts. Well done for receiving 2nd place, Mark!


    <div align=center>Most Controversial Member</div>

    It was always going to be a surprise to see who would win this award considering that to 2 previous winners are no longer posting here. It was very close between 1st and 2nd but Will won it in the end! Congratulations EvilWill!!!

    There was only 1 point between these 2 guys. I was amazed the 3rd place winner but not 1st and 2nd. Did you think that BRYAN would win anything in this award? I did. Well done on being the 2nd most controversial member, Bryan!


    <div align=center>Best Personality</div>
    I won?! I won?! I really won an award?! Yes, I’m not joking around, I really won! Congratulations EvilAmy for winning this award!!

    The 2nd place winner is a great member, always happy, helping when she can. We are all glad she is here :) . Congratulations EastCoastPunk on receiving 2nd place for the best personality!


    <div align=center>Cutest/Hottest Member Of Both Sexes</div>
    The hottest boy. Isn’t it amazing that finally the administrator, who has a lot of pics using up the bandwidth the LPA's server won this award? I guess posting all your pictures up payed off Derek! Congratulations!
    Now what about 2nd place? Who else liked to post up a lot of pics of themselves but has now stopped? That’s right, WILL!

    Now to the girls. This was very close because well there are a lot more boys then girls on these forums! We had a tie for first. Firstly I’d like to congratulate the previous winner, linknprkbby101 and the new winner Katrina for taking out this award!


    <div align=center>Best Staff Personnel</div>

    Best Staff Personnel. This was an easy award to pick the winner for. All the staff do an excellent job but one just had to stand out from the rest. The past winner was LPFAN05, and he takes it out again! Congratulations Mark! Thanks for keeping the forums under control and doing you job greatly :) .

    We had a tie for second place. One of the second winners gave me a huge shock but the other I knew was a great staff member. Congratulations to Derek (great staff member) and EvilAmy (shock) for coming 2nd in this award. Keep up the good work!


    <div align=center>Best Thread Starter</div>

    Everyone knew who would win this award. Just go look around the forums and you will see a lot of topics with his name on them! Congratulations LPFAN05 for taking out this award both times! Thanks for posting a whole lot of great topics for the members :) .

    The 2nd place winner is also no big surprise. Have a look around and you will also see a few of the great topics with his name. Well done, Will, for being the 2nd best thread starter!


    <div align=center>The Best Thread (Topic)</div>

    It was no surprise to see which thread won the award for best thread. It’s in the great Chit Chat forum and is used by everyone! Started by a member who hasn’t been with us for a long time, Random Thoughts takes out this award again.

    That good old What Song Are You Currently Listening To? topic took out the award for 2nd. Who would of guessed the 2 most posted in topics would win 1st and 2nd for this award?


    <div align=center>Person who has left for any reason and should be back.</div>

    This is a sad category. It causes us to remember all the old members who have sadly left for any reason. I’m sure you all remember Jawknee. How many of you wish he was still here? Obviously a lot of you since he took out 1st place. Hopefully he will get to read this and realise that the members here miss him.

    The 2nd most wanted back member is With You. Where the hell did he get to? Hopefully you read this, With You, and you come back because people wish you could still be here with us.


    <div align=center>Best Overall Member</div>

    Finally we are at the last award, the Best Overall Member. Who here is the guy with 9000 and something posts? Who is the guy who everyone loves? Who is the guy that won this award last time? WILL!! Congratulations Will, you really deserve this award.

    The winner for 2nd place in this award was close seen as there are so many great members on these forums but someone had to take it out and it was KEATON! You know? That random, funny guy? Well done Keaton, you are a great person to have here :) .


    It’s Almost Finished!
    I hope you all enjoyed the second awards for the LPA forums. I hope you all agree with the winners because I surely do. Hopefully sometime in the next couple of months someone can organise a new award show with more awards so it can be bigger and better then ever before!

    I would like to congratulate all the winners AGAIN. You all deserve the awards you won :) . I would also like to thanks everyone who voted again. We can’t have these awards without these voters so thank you a lot. Anyone who didn’t vote, you should be ashamed or your self :p . I would also like to congratulate everyone who got nominated for the awards, and you will all find out who you are later. I hope you didn’t get too bored reading this! Have fun with this topic now :)

    Congradulations to all the winners of the second annual LPA awards :). Thank you Amy for organizing the second annual LPA awards and thank you everyone else for participating in the second annual LPA awards :lol:.

    Sorry to those who didn't win, but better luck next time :). The next time around, hopefully there are more winners, but congrats' to those who won this time around.

    I would, on my behalf, like to thank everyone who thought I was random, funny, and all around tollerably good :p. It makes me feel good to know people like me somewhere a long the line in this world :p.

    Anyways, good work, good job, and I can't wait for the LPA Awards to come back around next time :).

    Of course not. My self-esteem would never make me write something before hand. If it sounded like a pre-written speech, then 'woo-hoo' to English skills, lmao :p.

    If this was a real life awards ceremony I'd probably be all red faced from embarassment and unable to say anything. But since I have time to perfect my statements, I'll post my reactions for each award I won. Hopefully it doesn't seem lame of me to do so, it's just I'm so thankful that people thought of me in that way that well...I wanna say so..

    Personal Favorite

    I'm pretty touched to have read that I won personal favorite. I don't post as much as some people do on these forums, so to even win this was an outright shock to me. I'm glad that the strict manner in which I come off sometimes when enforcing the rules, didn't lower people's opinions of me as I was only doing my job. This is a great award to win and I love every last one of you that voted for me to make this possible. Thank you so much! Eeeeeee.. (w00t)

    2nd Place-Best Writer

    I'm not sure many people know this, but all of my lyrics usually stem from personal experiences I've gone through in my life. Writing poetry/lyrics are my way of moving on from those horrible experiences, so to see that people appreciate and even relate to the lyrics I write, is an amazing feeling and I thank you all for being so supportive.

    Best Graphics Artist

    I consider my artwork to be one of the most important things in my life (I have been doing it for 4-5 years), so I was really anxious to see what the overall reaction would be towards my talents on these forums. I couldn't believe it when I clicked on this thread and saw that I won this category overall. There are many great artists on these forums and I believe every last one of them deserves Kudos for thier hard work and dedication they put into thier images. I share this award with every last one of you and I'm very thankful to all the people who voted for me in this category. It really means a lot and I promise I wont stop making art for you all to see.. :)

    Cutest/Hottest Member Of Both Sexes- Male

    I do not have LPA flooded with my pictures Amy! It's all a big lie, stop fibbing...okay so maybe I do. :shifty:

    I really didn't know people found me hot on these forums as I always thought everyone favored Will. :lol: To find out from Will himself that I won most attractive, it...kind of blew me away. I sometimes have trouble with my esteem (although it doesn't seem it with all the pictures I have up) so this really helped to make me feel good about my looks and man..I'm flattered beyond belief.. :teehee:. Out of all the awards on these forums I did not expect to win this one so the fact that I did, is overwhelming. You girls rock! (and..guys who voted for me....too.. :wth:)

    Best Staff-2nd

    I wont do a long speech with this one, as I believe every last staff member deserves an award for the hard work they do to make this website what it is. I wouldn't be celebrating one year of LPA right now if it wasn't for the amazing staff of The Linkin Park Association, so not only do I accept this award, I also share it with all my staff who are not only my co-workers but also my best friends of anyone on the net :).

    ===

    I think that's it for now, wow..the amount of respect I got this time around really made me love my job here at LPA even greater, and I can assure you all..I'm going to be on this website for many years to come. Thank you all and rock on! \m/

    Congratulations to all the winners of the 2nd Annual LPA Forum Awards! You all deserve it!

    Thanks to everyone for voting me Best Staff Personnel for a second straight awards ceremony! I'm very honoured to be voted for by my peers and equals, not inferiors for an award so important to me. I'll try to continue to do the very best to serve all of you well here on LPA.

    As for the best thread starter for a 2nd straight time, thanks again. It makes me happy because it shows I'm viewed as one of the best contributors to the forums, and that means alot to me. I'll try to continue to make the best threads for everyone to enjoy. :lol:

    And thanks also for the runner up in Intelligent Member. It's very humbling, my gratitude to everyone.

    And finally, thanks for any other votes I got in any other categories. And congrats to everyone!
