First, congratulations to all the nominees...do not trivialize the importance of being ten of the most admired posters on this forum especially during a year where tumult was the name of the game. For someone to consider you enough to put your name up means that you've affected them in a positive way.. whether it was providing a laugh or provoking deep thought or just being a generally decent human being..it's small things like this that have helped make TheColi a comforting path of escape for most when the world is raging. It is in this spirit that the Poster of the Year has been chosen. I'll admit, I did not know @charmander as well as some of you did but our tag team in orchestrating havoc back and forth on here in 2017 was something I'll fondly remember, @charmander was a good dude. He will be missed and it is a fitting tribute to give him the Poster of the Year crown one more time.

With such a memorial being cast by TLR for such an influential poster on not only this forum but SOHH as well, I hope you all take a moment to reflect (as I have this week) and think of the people close to you as we close out this year..those who mean the most to you, the ones you love and take a moment to TELL them you love them, give them a hug, etc.. especially in the spirit of the holiday season because it's an unfortunate reality that we don't know the time when any of us will leave this existence.

Special notes of congrats to @shopthatwrecks and @RhapSaDiddy with impressive showings with Top 3 finishes, you may have not won the crown but again, take pleasure in that many of peers who voted through the nomination process to the official ballot think highly of you as posters. @BmoreGorilla ....we gonna get there eventually breh breh .. @Booksnrain ,@BrothaZay , @xXOGLEGENDXx , @neotheflyingone , @benjamin and @LaBellaNicole0416.NYC please take a bow and God willing, I hope to see all of your names back in such a thread next year. Be blessed. All of you.

@Brooklynzson @Houston911 it is done, gods.

@BmoreGorilla for making his stand these last several years, or @LaBellaNicole0416.NYC who also made her stand and took down c00n Mods, CACs, and sex workers.

I'll make my decision soon

@BmoreGorilla - for keeping order
@xXOGLEGENDXx - for his IG science
@LeVraiPapi - for covid coverage

 

[Nicole0416_718_929_646212]

@BmoreGorilla is my pick. Most level headed lowkey poster here and I heard that he deserved the accolades.


And lol at my 4th place 2019 POTY candidacy with a woat tag. Dammit if that’s not some 2020 shyt.

 

[Nicole0416_718_929_646212]

Not to derail the thread so Please pardon the slight interruption. No offense to The MIC but Point me in the direction of the WOAT thread because - @Houston911 in light of 2020 being 2020; I would like to formally propose that posters with over 10k Rep should be removed from woat candidacy consideration. as I don’t think that any of my fellow woat recipients don’t have positive reps at all. Has a woat poster in the history of the coli ever had positive rep? I would like the opportunity to present my case please

Choose @BmoreGorilla , vote for him. I wouldn’t be able to come at these cacs and c00ns or take notes had he not built the foundation with his threads and he’s been here longer- it’s only right. I heard that he’s been vying as POTY on here.
