WE WON PF has been nominated for physics.org award

[Dembadon]

I have a feeling some of the older/professional audience perceives forums as places run by anarchistic teenagers, not a place for a serious discussion, so I am not surprised by the judges verdict.

...

If the "older/professional" judges voted based on their perceptions, then they've no right calling themselves professionals. It wouldn't take much effort on their part to discover that PF isn't your typical internet forum.

In any case, I'd rather have the people's vote. I'm proud to be a member of this community. Thank you to all of the mentors, homework helpers, and science advisers!

Why did this dumb competition drag PF into it, anyway?

They can keep dealing out their Raspberry&Darwin Awards for all I care..

I think the People's Choice award is awesome.

Meh, I get the privilege of coming here and hanging out with some really bright and really funny people. Someone was kind enough to let me in the door.

Yahaa!
I knew it, though.

I love physics forum, I feel that I can ask any burning question that I have on here and it is often answered or discussed with great enthusiasm, wit and informed thinking.
well done!

indeed it is. The People are more discerning than the judges.

If physics.org was serious about this competition, they would contact Greg with the scores he received from different judges under the various criteria for judgment, so he could use the feedback to improve the site. I, personally, would like to see how we scored compared to the other shortlisted sites.

It looks as though 4 of the 5 judges were astro/cosmo geeks.

Maybe we need to spend more time talking about stars and stuff?

Anyways, if I've said it once, I've said it twice, PF is the only forum worth paying for.

Though I did offer cash money for the archive of Dr. Neutrino after they took it off line. But the professor I contacted said it was deleted. :(

Hurray! PF is for the people and we won the peoples award! This will look nice in our trophy case :)

Of course we won, I only sent them an e-mail once a week telling them we had better win.
