What is the Great Members List?
It's a place where forum members who buy-from and sell-to each other can mention Good Dealings.
Is there a place to mention 'bad dealings'?
Sort of. If you have a bad dealing then please try to work it out using Private Messages (PM's) to politely keep it behind-the-scenes. Be reasonable. If that fails, and if you feel you have to mention it. then please use the 'Anything Goes' forum or the related 'classified ad' thread for that. This allows both parties to share their sides in a way that all members can benefit from in the future. That having been said, its also good to mention that very few bad dealings occur here because these alternatives exist.
Who decides who gets added to the list?
Forum members who have had good dealings, although in rare cases the Topic Manager can decline to add a name.
How do I participate?
Post your Quick-Reply naming the person by their correctly-spelled forum name.
How can the Great Members List help me?
Sometimes its nice to know if a member you are thinking of dealing with has a good history here.
How can I help the Great Members List?
Recommend it to other members, and participate.
How is the Great Members List organized:
The 'current year' list is shown in the #1 Post, and is a living and growing list all year.
The 'prior year' list is shown in the #2 post, so the reference list is always at least one year long.
The 'consolidated history' list is shown in Post #3 and can the considered our locked record copy.
Can old data be changed or corrected?
No. Only the current year-in-process can be changed or corrected.
How can I verify a member listed earlier was actually recommended by a member?
A link to the earlier 'Legacy' thread is shown in ArizonaWarrior's post (see below).
Can I rely on every listed member being good to deal with?
To some extent. But everyone has bad days so cut members some slack. Also, because members add member names, always get to know a member before doing a deal. Read their posts, including their classifieds.
What if I cannot find a forum name shown in the Great Members List by using the forum search function?
Please send a Private Message (PM) to the Great Members topic manager. Please include the member's forum name exactly as you found it spelled in the current Great Members List.
Do I have to worry if an old forum name be used by a new forum member?
Generally, no. It might be true that software upgrades and migrations over time might have left holes through which a newer member might innocently register using a forum name once belonging to someone else.
A larger concern might be that some forum names are spelled very similar to others so are easily confused.
The Topic Manager will check names using the forum 'search' function, but its up to members to post verified and correctly-spelled forum names because otherwise you might recommend the wrong member due to their forum name similarities. Its up to all of us to use the same caution here as anywhere else on the internet.
Is there a 'minimum post count' requirement to buy-from or sell-to members here?
Currently, no. We as members use the 'report' icon ( ) to politely alert Admin to potential spammers.
Can I ask the Topic Manager who the best member is to deal with?
You can ask but obviously you shouldn't expect an answer.
Can a name on the list be deleted?
In rare cases the Topic Manager can delete a name, but it requires a separate thread be started to conduct a vote in open-forum. No comments are allowed in that vote thread. members would simply vote 'yes delete' or 'no do not delete' the member name from the current year's Great Members List. Prior lists cannot be changed.
What if I have other questions?
Send a Private message (PM) to the Topic Manager. This assures it will rise onto the radar screen quickly.

Following is a list of 2002-2014 rswarrior.com members recognized for
their Great Dealings with Forum Members. This archive list is closed.
Please see the 2015 Great Members list in the first post above.
thanks for taking over this list. you should check out the previous list postings as there were a lot of people already added for 2016 who did not find their way into the list for 2016 as of yet
Adding Herculean who sold me a few bits at a real fair price and even met-up at a convenient spot for both of us. Nice guy, been around here awhile, gonna be missed so hopefully he will check-in with his dual-sport bike antics so we can all follow along!!
Likely wholly un-necessary as he is always around helping people, but please add arizonawarrior as well. Super nice guy and very easy to work with. Will miss this community for sure. It is a rare gem in the internet forum world. I'll try and pop in once and a while.
Adding umpire3. Good guy to deal with and does a solid by sending a PM when he runs across something he knows someone is looking for. All around a win-win to work with. Thank you Robert!
Nominating Chopper17 who joined our ranks 3/2014 but has under 50 posts, been lurking maybe, but probably hasn't interacted enough to know how things are here among older members. He sent me a part that was to go normal USPS (CT or OR). Before I bought I told him I'm moving and asked him when it might get sent so I could guess when it would arrive (to be sure I still live here). He told me, it worked, and so I bought.
Guess what, on his own he sent it as he said he would but sent it 2nd day USPS. I asked how much extra and he said (paraphrasing) no-worries it'll all come out in the wash. I knew if I pushed it he would be insulted, its like he's an old-timer here. Rare to see this happen, don't want to screw with it for feeling better about a few bucks to cover mailing . . . but have to say I cannot think of any reason to not work with Chopper17 he's a stand-up guy, does what he says, and seems to understand that buying and selling here is more than money, its brotherhood.
I appreciate everything bro. If you ever need help in a marketplace issue let me know. I mean, I would help anyone anyway and would dig-in and figure out what happened and try to make it right what-ever that means in the case. But I know first-hand you are a stand-up guy so that makes things easier. Glad you are here, you'll make a great addition to the long-time brothers
Adding that the light arrived with a few layers of bubble wrap and inside is the bucket and headlight in what almost seems to be in new condition so its almost a shame to put them into my spares . . . might just swap and use mine as the spare! Great doing biz with ya
I need to nominate Jimworx because he went out of his way to make sure I had all the parts for a mod. He got the package back from shipping, went home to look for a crucial part, couldn't find it, and so he grabbed a case of beer and traded/drank it with his buddy for the part. Then he shipped priority mail! I'd definitely do biz with Jimworx again. I'm shooting him extra $20 just for the effort. Thank you brother!
Update: Jimworx refused the extra $ because he said basically this forum rocks. Really, what a super guy to work with.
Hi Shadow, you're doing a great job here with the GML
Could you please add.... 'dudeabides' ....for me.
He sent me his rear fender from California, extremely well wrapped, tracked with special instructions from me to avoid paying Customs Duty
He even sent it out before I paid...... top man
