Just a thought with recent developments on the forum.

Which members do you all think have made a worthwhile contribution to this forum ie actually posted recipes that have been tried/tested and recommended by the forum users?

Not to say that if you haven't posted anything you aren't a worthwhile member. Some people are here to learn and are very new, and may feel silly posting a recipe that has basically been done before by other more "senior" members. Then there are others that seem to have been around forever, and have contributed little or nothing, and some just constantly seem to want to cause trouble.

My curry gurus on this forum are....in no particular order

- Chewytikka
- Stephen Lindsay
- Jerry M
- Bengal Bob
- Razor (whatever happened to him?)
- Unclefrank
- Curryhell
- JB ( his base alone makes him a curry guru in my books)
- H4ppy Chris
- And....yes .... Cory Ander. His recipes stack up....simple as, regardless of what you've heard/read/formed an opinion of. if you haven't tried his stuff because of bad publicity from certain members on here, then you are really missing out.


Some more notable newer members:

madrasAndy
Littlechillie

both 10/10 for effort. Zero for tact and diplomacy on another forum.

Also the guy who gave us the Glasgow base....superb.

I'm sure I've missed out more than a few names that have guided me on my way, and if i have I apologise.

So, who, in your opinion, is worthy of a "Top man" badge in the curry world?

And obviously, you really did ask for this George. 



Always good to think things the whole way through before proceeding to push the post button  :

This back and forth bickering between the adversaries is achieving nothing

At least it's back and forth now.

For the last few months it's been all one way.

I can't blame CA for wanting to defend himself against a tirade of (moderated) thrown his way.

There are 95 people viewing this topic, better than TV

Using that sort of language takes this forum down to half- wit level

I agree. So much for any notion of a 'three strikes and you're out' type rule. Why should anyone feel the need to use such bad language?

I suggest you take a long, hard, look in the mirror and award yourself the latter award, for all of the years that you have been on the forum, George. Though one or two others do try very hard to pip you to the post.

Newcomers, to this forum, should also bear in mind that comments made by some recent members are because they are disgruntled that they have been banned from elsewhere for continually disrupting that forum. No need to mention names.

Couldn't have said it any better myself.

No need to mention names, it isn't too difficult to find out who if you are that way inclined.

please explain why you think that he should receive the wooden spoon award

He's disgruntled, bitter and misguided in my opinion, even if his recipes are quite good in terms of taste, and some of the best in terms of presentation.

Several members suspect that he has crept back here under one or more alternative identities. I suspect they might be right. Therefore, another suggestion might be that we have a security alert arrangement a bit like DEFCON, as used by the US armed forces. But scaled right down, of course, to match forum needs, rather than the defence of a nation.

What level of readiness do you think we should be on at present?

I only see one disgruntled, bitter and mis-guided person in this thread  :

With respect LC and ma (aka Caroline reaper) I am directing my question at George.
