~Reserved for my vote
I did this because I do nothing at home, no photoshop at my new laptop.

USER OF THE YEAR [Ralle/]
Definitely the most useful and most important guy on the site. I rather complement him for maintaining the site for many years and still has the guts to improve the site. He should be the User of the Year 2015 because of his determination. ;D

MODERATOR OF THE YEAR [StoPCampinGn00b]
He's been keeping the Maps Section very clean. For me, he's my favorite moderator of this year.

SOCIAL GROUP OF THE YEAR [RACC]
It is actually RACC which is more active this year. It is actually like PRS before but not now.

SOCIAL GROUP MAINTAINER OF THE YEAR [SCN]
Been a responsible maintainer of PRS. Keeping all members active by VM'ing everyone is such a big effort. And I respect and commend that.

MAP AUTHOR OF THE YEAR [APProject]
Iceborn was sooooo perfect.

ICON ARTIST OF THE YEAR [morbent]
Loved the style, he truly loves digital art so much. For the moose!

CODER OF THE YEAR
Still thinking...

TEXTURE ARTIST OF THE YEAR [-Grendel]
That comeback in skinning got you a Directors Cut! Loved the style even though you only uploaded 1 skin this year.

MODELER OF THE YEAR [-Grendel]
Oh man, those beautiful models you've created. I loved the style of creating models and even the concepts too! Man you're so talented.

TERRAINER OF THE YEAR
Still thinking...

My most favorite map in terms of graphics and gameplay. APProject, I am waiting for that Acheron's Affliction of yours.

[Moy]

Thanks tho. I just wanted to do something rather than sleeping in my bed.

 

[Roland]

He-y-y-y No Graphics designer of the year? Sigh. Oh well, I love this thread so I'm subscribing it.

[Daffa]

USER OF THE YEAR : N/A

MODERATOR OF THE YEAR : SCN (ugh, please SCN, change your name coz I kinda have a hard time spelling it right)
His efforts in expanding Hive Network with other sites and being a very friendly moderator. He earned this recognition.

SOCIAL GROUP OF THE YEAR : Resistance Against the Cake Crusade aka RACC
Before you guys slap me for being the current maintainer, this group has decent effort in keeping social group alive for a good amount of time. I would say, one of the most active social group for quite a decently long period during this year.

SOCIAL GROUP MAINTAINER OF THE YEAR : SCN (and again, look at my earlier comment lol)
Maintaining PRS while having a job as moderator sure kick you in the butt right lad? You really do put some serious effort in making the group keep flowing. Unlike a fella of yours here with his group...

MAP MAKER OF THE YEAR : N/A

ICON ARTIST OF THE YEAR : N/A

Being an awesome campaign series, this campaign deserve some real recognition.

CAMPAIGN MAKER OF THE YEAR : Shar Dundred
I would keep it simple, that he made an amazing series of campaigns.

ROOKIE OF THE YEAR : N/A

Most of the N/A are either because I lack experience in the section or I have yet to decide my vote.

 

[Cherrymage]

USER OF THE YEAR: Ralle
He's the most important guy here, he keep the website running and manages the Hive. Plus, he's the Webmaster, so he should be the User of the Year.

SOCIAL GROUP OF THE YEAR: RACC! (aka The Hive Miracle)
The most active and fun group here in the Hive, for a long time, so it's The Hive Miracle. Activity is still frequent, and we are enjoying ourselves there.

RACC is one of the things that keeps me in the Hive.

It's also the second largest social group if you look at the total post count, just before the Dark Prophecy.

(Don't slap me guys, for voting my own social group, it's my opinion by the way)

SOCIAL GROUP MAINTAINER OF THE YEAR: Daffa the Mage (RACC)

He did quite a good job maintaining the social group active and alive.

MAP MAKER OF THE YEAR: Don't know

MODELER OF THE YEAR: It's quite difficult to consider... General Frank or Ujimasa Hojo?

I don't know. Both of them are equally awesome.

CAMPAIGN OF THE YEAR: Legends of Arkain

[Moy]

Social Group Maintainer are just like leaders/master of a certain social groups. Like SCN maintaining the group - The Pinoy Resources Society.
While Rookie, you are new at something but contributed alot to the community by helping and uploading resources. Or beyond that.

 

[Ash]

I just want to put it out there that anyone voting in any categories that doesn't cast their vote for me will be banned for life and forever. I've never made a model but by god that award will be mine!

I think rather than getting your name on all the categories, invading hive will be more better. ;P XDD HAHA

We need more popularity!! lol

 

[Shain Dundred]

MAP AUTHOR OF THE YEAR [APProject]
Iceborn was sooooo perfect.

MAP OF THE YEAR [Iceborn]
My most favorite map in terms of graphics and gameplay. APProject, I am waiting for that Acheron's Affliction of yours.

Wasn't Iceborn released in 2014? Anyway, if it's available, I'll gladly vote for APProject in both categories.

I just want to put it out there that anyone voting in any categories that doesn't cast their vote for me will be banned for life and forever. I've never made a model but by god that award will be mine!

Ehhh..... I vote for Ash.

On a serious note, I doubt I'm in any position judging any Hive member and/or his/her work, but I think this is a great idea.
erhaps it should be added to the notices at the top to gain more attention? I think it deserves it.

 

[Ash]

I think this is a great idea.
erhaps it should be added to the notices at the top to gain more attention? I think it deserves it.

We actually used to do stuff like this... I don't disagree

 

[Chaosy]

I will vote for myself in all categories. Because I am special.

In a bad way.

edit:

USER OF THE YEAR - Bribe, underrated person seeing as no one else has mentioned him so far. A very important person to the modding community.
SOCIAL GROUP OF THE YEAR - RACC, simply due activity.
MAP MAKER OF THE YEAR - Tickles, do I need to motivate this? Just check his uploaded stuff, the ones from the recent contests for example.
ICON ARTIST OF THE YEAR - ~Nightmare, because I like the icons made?
TEXTURE ARTIST OF THE YEAR - Heinvers, 3 skins made all of them 5/5. I even think one got a DC, don't quote me on it though.
SPELL/CODE OF THE YEAR - http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/spells-569/uipackage-273281/?prev=r=20&page=2 not quite easy to use (for me), but hell it is an awesome system.
HELPER OF THE YEAR - Dr Super Good, because he is everywhere.

 

[Moy]

@Shain: I do think to maps we can consider it but to other resources, no. Because maps are kinda updated periodically. So all maps that are uploaded on Hive can be nominated.

Putting it up in the notices would be a great idea if not it's still okay. ;P

@Chaosy: Stop trolling, nominating me as Icon Artist of the Year is stupid XD (just joking tho). Seriously, you like all of them? If yes, I love you <3 XD
On the side note, I put Tickles as second on the Map Maker of the Year, those maps are awesome, and Quilnez on third. But there's APProject. And Bribe was mentioned as Helper of the Year by Wisdom.

EDIT: I might edit the deadline for more thrill and collect more nominations.

 

[Gilles]

Gilles for Rookie of the Year!

Moderator of the year: Ash (I'm really impressed by the new Ash)
Terrainer of the year: Heinvers (I think he made the most terrains this year/was very active. Also the improvement he's made over the last couple years is awesome)

 

[Roland]

Roland - Rookie of the year!

 

[Shar Dundred]

I shouldn't be around, but by God, even if my eyes kill me for it, I will vote here or die trying!

USER OF THE YEAR
SHAR DUNDRED OF COURSE!
Okay, no, absolutely not. Even the lazy Chaosy would be more fitting for this than me.

CAMPAIGN OF THE YEAR
There are only two campaign projects that I'm interested in: My own and Malfurion's Quest.
I'm not voting for myself for obvious reasons and can't vote for Malfurion either because I find myself in an inner conflict due to the fact that I had the honor being a tester and feedback-giver for Turnro for a while.
Can't vote for Chosen Ones either because it has literally been YEARS since the last time I played it and I, uh, never played it again afterwards, sorry Aero.
Therefore: N/A

Same as with the Campaign of the Year
N/A

ROOKIE OF THE YEAR
Roland
For his big comeback and because Roooooooldyyyyy.

 

[Rui]

Wasn't around for the latter half of this year, unfortunately.

Anyhow, would you please not actually create awards for this? It's been tried before. Twice. And failed both times.

 

[KILLCIDE]

Put into a table because I can.

Award	User
Moderator	IcemanBo, inhumanely fast when it comes to my reports to threads/posts I see. In the spell section, he has also given detailed reviews, and has personally stuck with me through all the problems I've had with my spells in relation to the review he gave me
Icon Artist	BLazeKraze, I just love his style so much. It fits WC3 so well, but still gives it that fresh, new feeling to it. Despite being in a 64x64 resolution, the detail of his icons are so pleasing to look at
Coder	Bribe, Bribe has managed to give GUI users like me great limits to the normal trigger editor. His resources are extremely GUI friendly despite being coded in JASS. He has even taken the time to explain some of his resources in a video!
Modeler	ILH, he hasn't really uploaded any resources this year, but personally, this guy has helped me so much with so many small to big edits while I give very little in return. I love his strive to get better by stalking the requests forum and fuliflling the needs of noob users like me with models/effects we are in need of. He has also come to me many times for opinions towards models he makes (but never uploads >.>), which makes me feel warm inside :3 it's not a big deal, but his age alone makes him my aspiration to continue giving to the Hive
Helper	PurgeandFire, the first person that pops into my head when I have any questions related to the WE. Extremely nice, gives incredible insight, and even takes the time to provide examples of my problems

 

[Chaosy]

Mr iceman rejects all my stuff
Killcide, traitor.

 

[KILLCIDE]

Mr iceman rejects all my stuff
Killcide, traitor.

That's why he is moderator of the year for me! He moderates with extreme pickiness which I like

 

[Moy]

Anyhow, would you please not actually create awards for this? It's been tried before. Twice. And failed both times.

No awards though. But User of the Year could, since we have awards for it. But for me, it would be no.

 

[Moy]

bump

 

[ILikeMacNCheeze]

ROOKIE OF THE YEAR - Roland, nuff' said

 

[Roland]

[ILikeMacNCheeze]
