So question about this. Is there only going to be a selected few, and thats it. Or is it like an honor that everybody can get eventually?
Edit: And also, is there going to be a new one selected everyday, whenever it is nesscary, or is just going to be once a week? This post has been edited by Ryan: Jun 28 2007, 01:50 AM -------------------- “Obey the principles without being bound by them.”

Its based on merit not any kind of notion of how many there should be. Exact timing and descicions are up to Kris - but I will say, that we won't make one a day just because. If there is noone to promote, we won't do it! -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

I don't know if it qualifes for a badge though... Seriously, I must say that if you help people with the things you know - while learning yourself, so that your knowledge range keeps growing - you will be able to qualify too in the future

Congrats to MikeM and for it was well deserved .
I wish you the best of luck in your playing and I hope more from you is yet to come! On another note. These are I think some suggestions for Senior Members. I think any Gmc Instructor by Default should be a senior member. That in itself reflects all the qualitys shown in the first post. Tank should easily be another senior member. Hes been here since the start of Gmc and he helped the site thrive into what it is today. ( Member # 5 ! ) And I believe even the " Theory god Andrew " learned quite alot from him at one point. Thats just what I think !  Great Idea !- John -------------------- Join Me On the Lyrics Board !
