In praise of Dopers who don't normally get praised

Thanks, Phil, I must have been too drunk to remember that thread. I appreciate being remembered.

SSG Schwartz

SSG Schwartz, I think that one of your posts was one of the earliest posts I read back when I was just a little lurker. I remember reading one of your early posts & mis-reading your doper name as “Sgt Schultz”…it reminded me of the old Hogan’s Heroes German sgt who kept insisting, “I know nothing…nothing!” SSG Schwartz, I stand corrected.

You too! No, I’ve been busy doing IRL. We still need to go to lunch.

My list is so long, and I’m so afraid of leaving someone out, I’ll just say, I LOVE YOU ALL, MAN! :smiley:

IIRC, QtM often seconds your posts, which speaks volumes about their quality.

Aww, thanks Fiver and olives, you’re both too kind. Stop it, or I’ll get LOUNE to lick ya’s. :stuck_out_tongue:

Not that she’s the only one deserving praise, but I particularly enjoy Dangerosa’s point of view. She’s smart, eloquent and terribly even-handed, I have nothing in common with her but greatly admire her.

Eep… spotted!

For my part I would name GorillaMan, because he’s 8 hours faster than me at answering music questions. :slight_smile: Darn time zones!

And silenus always seems to have the obscure trivia answers stored in his brain.

And eleanorrigby and picunurse always seem to crop up in the threads I read, and they’ve got wise things to say.

I have to admire Bricker’s ability to respond calmly to anything: stating facts, his opinion, case law, or anything else, his tone never wavers.

I admire Cervaise too, but damn it, he’s my brother. :smiley:

Wow. See what a vanity search will do for you?

Well thank you, FriarTed. It’s flattering to hear it from you, one of the most knowledgeable Dopers in GD.

If only I could talk a little more sense into you, I wouldn’t be the only one wearing the target…

Ha! :wink: :stuck_out_tongue: :smiley:

Aw shucks, phil417, I never get mentioned. [blushing smiley]

I wanted to pop in with a mention for vivalostwages, since it’s assessment test gem time again!

In keeping with the spirit of the OP, and mentioning people who usually don’t get named in these threads:

Gfactor - Not only a good Mod, but a joy to work with on Staff Reports, always there with help if you are having a problem with the boards or the like, and a generally all-around nice guy.

C K Dexter Haven - The only Mod who has ever taken the time to drop a line and thank me for reporting a problem.

Diogenes the Cynic - Yeah, I know. He really pisses you off, doesn’t he? But he cares, and it shows. Nobody ever says “Thanks” for that. Same for Der Trihs. Flaming assholes, they can be. But this would be a far sorrier place without them.

:slight_smile: :smiley:

Although I see he has already been nominated, I enter this thread to support Robot Arm. Very often, when I encounter a devastating one-liner in a thread, he is the sender.

Cite.

Cite.

Ta. Stupid sleep habits have a lot to do with it, too :wink:

Thanks, El_Kabong and Larry Borgia. Y’all make me feel special! :slight_smile:

I appreciate so many around here - too many to name.

Thanks, Dopers!
