I think Tango01 should be officially recognized as "TMP's Roving Correspondent in Chief", since he finds so many great photos, and articles, and shares them with us.

Given the proclivity of his posts, perhaps an official title is in order, plus some small prize, in recognition of his continued service here on TMP, like a free extension of a supporting membership.

1. Yes
2. No

I AM TOTALLY OPPOSED TO ANY AND ALL POLLS ABOUT TMP MEMBERS. THEY ARE NOTHING BUT AN INVITATION TO PERSONAL ATTACKS.

CPT Jake24 Jul 2012 7:20 a.m. PST

What he said.

Tango already gets attacked. Opening up topics like this and Lord forbid a poll will make it worse.

PJ Parent24 Jul 2012 7:20 a.m. PST

I thought internet researcher might fit. Or master of google-fu… Make that grand master of google-fu

But I do agree with John someone will say something negative.

No.

Mako1124 Jul 2012 7:33 a.m. PST

I support the idea, but perhaps not a poll, due to the reasoning John mentioned.

I hadn't thought about that, and certainly don't want to subject Tango01 to any more negative feedback, since I enjoy his postings.

I would support either the designation by Bill, of Official TMP Correspondent, or Researcher, without the need for a Poll on the subject.

I suspect he can make a decent "executive decision" on the matter.

Brent2751124 Jul 2012 7:38 a.m. PST

No

anleiher24 Jul 2012 7:47 a.m. PST

I vote yes. The "official status" might serve to insulate him from some attack.

Goodness knows he is indefatigable. Now we should consider his salary……….

Sundance24 Jul 2012 7:50 a.m. PST

No.

Keraunos24 Jul 2012 7:52 a.m. PST

OFM is right, and the editor should act on it now

Derek H24 Jul 2012 8:10 a.m. PST

What John said (again).

nickinsomerset24 Jul 2012 8:11 a.m. PST

Tango does a jolly good job as it is, no need to change anything or give a job title etc, as OFM said,

Tally Ho!

ming3124 Jul 2012 8:22 a.m. PST

The man finds the wildest stuff to see

WarWizard24 Jul 2012 8:25 a.m. PST

Yes, fine with me. He does an great job.

It is sad, that you cannot talk about anyone here on TMP for fear of someone saying something negative about them.

Dark Knights And Bloody Dawns24 Jul 2012 9:37 a.m. PST

I prefer Tango01 to remain freelance.

epturner24 Jul 2012 10:12 a.m. PST

Again…I agree with The OFM.

Willtij24 Jul 2012 10:49 a.m. PST

Mr. OFM is correct

Tango01 Supporting Member of TMP24 Jul 2012 11:53 a.m. PST

My friend Mako11 I know that your intention was good and many thanks for your suggestion, BUT, as usual, John is right here.
Thanks for all who vote (1 or 2)and hope my little contribution continue in peace in these lovely forum which I enjoy so much.

Amicalement

John the Greater24 Jul 2012 1:10 p.m. PST

I always enjoy Tango01's posts. I have seen things I would never in a million years have found without his postings.

But I am forced to agree with the OFM, we should not have polls about members. It invites abuse.

14Bore Supporting Member of TMP24 Jul 2012 1:18 p.m. PST

I agree with John, my man gets enough snide remarks.

Dropzonetoe Fezian24 Jul 2012 1:23 p.m. PST

NO – for the idea and for having polls about TMP members.

skippy000124 Jul 2012 1:30 p.m. PST

Tango doesn't need sanction to post what he does best.

ZULUPAUL Supporting Member of TMP24 Jul 2012 2:49 p.m. PST

I agree with OFM, no more polls about TMP individuals.

Space Monkey24 Jul 2012 2:53 p.m. PST

I'm another against singling people out with special polls, threads, forums or whatever.

ochoin deach24 Jul 2012 3:31 p.m. PST

After John's experiences, he's allowed to use BOLD CAPS in his post.

Sergeant Paper24 Jul 2012 5:29 p.m. PST

NO.

Mapleleaf24 Jul 2012 6:29 p.m. PST

No all TMP members are equal.

Scorpio24 Jul 2012 9:11 p.m. PST

a.) As noted above, let's not have polls about individuals.

b.) Plus, that would be Cacique Caribe's job.

Karpathian25 Jul 2012 1:46 a.m. PST

I am quite comfortable to be personally nominated in a poll as to why I should be made Glorious Dictator and Supreme Arbiter of TMP.

But on the whole, I do not think members should be singled out for good or ill.

Let the good Tango keep posting (if he wants to) in peace.

FoxtrotPapaRomeo25 Jul 2012 3:45 a.m. PST

ditto … agree with OFM, no more polls about TMP individuals. And Tango should continue doing what he does well …

korsun0 Supporting Member of TMP25 Jul 2012 4:01 a.m. PST

I just want to know where T-man finds time to locate all this stuff!

Disco Joe25 Jul 2012 6:14 a.m. PST

Only if he doesn't mind traveling the world. If he wants to be a correspondent he needs to go from country to country.

Personal logo 20thmaine Supporting Member of TMP25 Jul 2012 9:28 a.m. PST

Just leave him alone, he isn't doing TMP any harm and I expect a lot of people appreciate the extra hits on their blogs or shop pages.

bracken25 Jul 2012 10:27 a.m. PST

He turns up some right little gems, so let him carry on! I can't see that he's doing any harm! Ok so he sometimes repeats things but hey if you arnt interested you don't have to read on! If he's happy doing what he's doing good on him.

SECURITY MINISTER CRITTER26 Jul 2012 2:37 p.m. PST

I seem to recall asking for his own board, so I could find his stuff easier when I couldn't remember a title or board location.
This was in innocence and before last year's unpleasantness!
So on the off chance of Hades freezing over, I must agree with the OFM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NO!
