Nominate-A-Bro 2.0 [OVER]

[DanielT]

I'd like to put forth Elrick's name. I doubt he even cares for Bro Caps. I didn't have much direct contact with him, but his ever presence in many of the threads and his ability to hype up an GMK GB made him a valuable member of this community. A GB is pretty boring without this convict from Convict Town and he deserve a win, just so to see what snark remark he will come up with! Ha ha.

+1 For the Hype Master, GH would be boring without him 

[Signature]

Nominating paicrai, cause without him on steam I'd be pretty lonely and he always brings me a smile to my face.

Also nominating Nasby99, the OTD master. Taught me almost everything I know about korean keyboards and has been a really good friend to me when we are talking via Skype.

[absyrd]

Hahaha. I have way too many people who have shown me love to even start nominating.

I like reading about all these positive interactions, though. This thread/giveaway showcases the great part of the GH community. When people get negative, just direct 'em here.

[dgneo]

Well I don't have too many interactions yet as I'm still pretty new, but the first person that comes to mind is katushkin.

I was looking to buy some artisans, and katushkin offered to sell me one at a very reasonable rate. Life got in the way, and long story short I've had to postpone the purchase, but he was very understanding, and mentioned that it'll still be there when I'm ready to purchase. I know it's not much, but it's one of the first interactions I've had in this community, and katushkin genuinely seemed as if he wanted to help a fellow collector out, and not charge an exorbitant amount just because he can.

Cheers katushkin!

Definitely a couple people I wanna shoutout but I'll start off with livingspeedbump. Like several others who've already posted in this thread, I was completely blindsided by livingspeedbump's generosity.
I was selling a KRAP skull over on r/mk and livingspeedbump was interested. However he told me his payment might be a bit delayed so to make up for it he'd send me a keychatter.com mug! I was like "hell yeah I'll wait as long as you want me to for free stuff" (or something to that effect ). Anyway turns out the payment wasn't delayed at all but he sent me the mug regardless!! Thanks again dude!

Here's the mugshot:

And aside from the mug, livingspeedbump has just been a super chill and polite guy in the relatively short amount of communication we've had. Recently I asked him his opinion on Zealios (since he's tried them already) and he was super helpful!

TL;DR: people like livingspeedbump just make the community more enjoyable to be a part of; free mug

Living speed is definetely an awesome bro ! He is always doing something cool fo people and these coffee mugs are baller  ) Between helping people with there key sets and writing reviews for the community LSB definitely deserves a nomination

[iamtootallforthis]

PunksDead: Really enjoy talking with him about lifting and life. It was great to find someone with shared interests outside of keyboards. Really generous person and really cares about this community as a whole. Looking forward to our next conversation although he is a damn busy man.

[iamtootallforthis]

CPTBadAss:
Got to meet him a week or so ago and got to explore his old stomping grounds. Really great person and really enjoyed getting to chill with him and talk about keyboards and life. Really informative about events that occurred before my time in the community and was a wealth of knowledge on artisans caps and their makers. Showed me some amazing food places and got to discuss music and his upcoming travels.

[iamtootallforthis]

btctopre:
I can't say enough good things about this guy! Helped me get a hold of some of my most sought after caps and was really patient and allowed me to find other trades to facilitate ours. I probably bugged him more than I know but he was patient with me.

[raymogi]

dustinhxc

Super awesome guy to have around and he has some nice stuff to boot. Love his pictures too!

[DrCr4nK]

Think I'd like to nominate Krytone. Extra caps, man!

[bcredbottle]

For the pay it forward thing, Swill freaking looked through my WTB list to see what would be most useful for me. He gave me a set of steel Ergodox plates. I mean come on, how ****ing thoughtful can you get?

[bcredbottle]

ImpendingxDoom has dedicated a alot of time to teaching me the art of resin casting in detail. For free. He answers all of my noob questions and never asks anything in return.

[bcredbottle]

nickheller also gave me a katzenkinder cap for like no ****ing reason other than b/c he's a good dude.

[Badwrench]

Nominating Suicidal_Orange.  He recently sent me my dream key-set as a surprise, can't get much more bro than that.

Be careful what you ask for.  )  Dude knows his TBell menu inside and out.    Asked him for advice once, and despite it being the most solid TBell advice I could ask for, I went to bed a seriously bloated and more than slightly drunk Hoffman.  It's even worse when you go there with him in person.  x.x

[Lokomotivet]

I'll nominate GenKaan, for bringing me to this community and also providing me with my very first artisan cap.

I would also like to nomimate thefebruaryman for hooking me up with a free HKP cap! I owe you one bro.

[Binge]

I'd like to nominate some people who are always there for me in one way or another.

BunnyLake and CodyEatWorld - You guys have no idea.  I am indebted for the hours you put into your work and while treating me with respect and making me feel comfortable.
Joey Quinn - Not to many bros will just let you spend a night or more on their couch without ever having met.  This guy has always been there to talk about wild projects.
CPTBadAss - Always tells me just how real it is.  I don't know many people who could easily say they spent as many hours making their friends lives more interesting as they put into their day job.  Thank you CPT for knowing no state borders.
Livingspeedbump - As generous and friendly as they come.  He's never once treated me as an outsider.  The time he puts into responding to inquiries or chatting while keeping up with his interesting projects/work is truly appreciated.
HoffmanMyster - Can't really say anything that hasn't been said.  He also pays me child support on time.
Sed8op8 - We don't talk much but I get hella pumped over your enthusiasm.
Beehatch - We'll catch this crooked bird-scammer.
kudosgodspeed - Sorta just met but already in bromance with your energy and dedication to the craft.
Punksdead - First person I met who would talk with me frankly about capcraft and a great source of inspiration.
Dustinhxc - Genuine fan and I hope he knows I have not forgotten my promise.
Badwrench - Has offered me a bunch of things I simply can't accept!  Well not all of them anyway.  Thanks for the birthday gift.

[livingspeedbump]

I also have a huge bromance with KudosGodspeed 

[Bomble]

I also think I'll throw in a vote for  Vespersaint, he makes some great youtube videos and takes great photos, and every single one of his posts is so damn positive!

[FreeCopy]

I'd like to nominate ImpendingxDoom.

He attended the meetup here in AZ that I missed out on and a few days later made the time to meet with me.

It was my first meeting outside the forum pages and it was really great. Talking keyboards with someone else
who shares the love of the hobby was a lot of fun. He opened me up to some other boards, layouts, switch types,
and even key profiles I'd yet to type on. He showed me and discussed his process in cap making which was very
interesting and FAR more involved than I had thought. It's always awesome listening to someone explain their
craft, more so when they're good at it.

Being so far from home and taking the extra time to hang out for food, drinks, keyboarding, and shooting the **** in general is definitely a Bro.

[Michael]

Last day for nominations, guys!

[asdfjkl36]

Coming in to toss in some names.

People listed have been great part of the community, are kind people, and have helped me and/or others in many ways.
They're all equally nominated:

Badwrench - Always a kind person, helping others, and is a pleasure to deal with.
PocketFool - Very kind and thoughtful. Dealt with him and was possibly the best communication and transaction i've had. Very kind, and even went and sent me something extra for a small issue that occurred, that was not a problem for me. Just overall, from the short span of time of dealing with, I've seen he's a great guy and I've changed a few things of my own to be more like him.
ghostjuggernaut - Awesome guy. Always see him around and i've delt with him before and was pleasant the entire time
Signature - Very kind and generous person. Has helped me, and have seen him go out of the way to help others in their time of need.
rowdy - Always a kind person and is the always the Welcome Party when it comes to new members on GH.
CodyEatWorld - Dude...He does A LOT for people. Does a ton of work for CTRL[Alt] and more, and sometimes we seem to forget/dont realize the amount of work he puts in. Great guy.
nickheller
swill
Bunny...
Hoff..
Joey Q..

[HoffmanMyster]

Congrats to all the winners!!    Great to see such deserving peeps win a contest (which is really the only outcome here I suppose, right?). 

[btctopre]

so uh... hey guys, what's going on in this thread? i'd like to pass my spot on to another person if that's kosher though, i've been fortunate enough as it is lately (i mean come on, i won a tahiti even though odds were like 0.75% ).

thank you (for real!!!) to those that gave me some love though, your words make me feel mushy chest area. there are so many great bros (in the genderless sense, ofc) in this community that do many helpful/selfless/thankless deeds, and that's what makes it truly special.

[Air tree]

That's very kind of you to pass it on to another, I still think you deserve it, though.
