Post The Official GB&C "Who to Listen to" List 2009

People on the good list can use this image as a profile badge! Just go to the about me tab and paste this:

<center><a href="http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1157689&page=1&pp=40">
<img border="0" src="http://i30.tinypic.com/jtxveg.jpg"></a></center>

This will make the image a link to the first page of this thread. For neatness, I'd put it above all the about me info.

Originally posted by SV300:

Members of this list can also carry this tag in their sig (and thus can be identified):

Member of the official GB&C "Who to Listen to" list 2009

Please keep in mind, this list of people does NOT mean they are the only people you should take seriously or listen to when they post. It is simply a list of people given to you to maybe help any confusion you might have as to what might be correct or what might be wrong information. It's a list of members who are consistently VERY helpful, knowledgeable and thorough in the areas covered by this forum. Simple as that.

In all seriousness, if you know anyone who gives bad, wrong, and/or dangerous advice, tell me by PMing me.

I've seen people give advice that would get people killed.

Jim you got Phil's name wrong it's nuthinbuttrubl8. You put an e in it. And even though we all know him, SYK still should be on the list. When it comes to electronics he's probably the smartest person on this site.

Dunno what the Mods think,
but I would suppose recommendations for the list(s) would be best done by PM.

do we want to do all nominations through PM to Jim (or me, but mostly Jim)? if so, should this thread just be closed and then edited by Jim with new names? not sure what would work best, so thats just an idea.

Here's a thought, Jimmy-Jof.
Edit the OP of this thread to indicate all suggestions for additions to the list be in the form a of PM to Jimmy-Jim (or you). Prune all the extraneous posts. Leave the thread open for posts making suggestions to the process itself.

For instance, Maybe Jimmy-Jim (or you) could create a Profile Group. Invite the members on the list. They can make suggestions for additional members, improvements to GB&C, coordinate updating/remake of tutorials and only/ultimate threads, etc.
