I guess we could introduce an algorithm that only picks out active members, and also make sure they aren't picked twice (the problem last time).
Plus, we would need to make sure that the title comes with some perks, so people would actually want the title.
Maybe a mod appointed member of the week may be a better solution.

What about member per forum? Quite a lot of posters only stick to a particular forum, so whoever mods that forum would have a better knowledge of who could be picked...? Plus with the size of the forum, how would the mods come up with a single member for the award?

So your saying one member should be chosen for each forum?
Well, yeah basically. If a member is chosen by the mods, how would they go about the selection process? Theres a whole forum, how would you pick a single member....if it was each forum or whatever, then whoever runs that forum could pick someone. Eg, how would the Harry Potter mod go about choosing someone who doesnt post in the HP forum? How do they know if that poster should get the title?
And look at the Star Wars VS forum for example, half of those dont venture anywhere else, so recieving a forum wide title of 'Member of the day' is kind of pointless if they only stick to one forum, but if it was a single forum award, then they can have some...'pride' or something of contributing to that forum. And say it was for subforums, eg Religion and Philosophy forums, and if they only had say 4 or 5 regular posters, then the award would cover the General Discussion/Religion/Philosophy forums together so they dont have the same 4 or 5 posters receiving each time.
Get me?

Yep, know what you mean.
If this has been posted already, then i apologise...
but the best way imo is this...
put a thread in each forum, people post who they think deserves it, then the person with the most votes goes forward from each forum... then draw the winners out of a hat...
or have a member of the day for each forum...
though that could be too long for a single day... 😬
