Back in my day... Don't be alarmed if an sMod calls you sonny, or tells you stories about Buffalo nickels and penny whistles. These hand-picked old-timers make the forums a friendly place for everyone, and always have butterscotch candy to share.

Popular
Like, totally. Chances are you know individuals who are popular, and if you don't, chances are you wish you did. You wish you could be just like them, don't you? They're the ones who always score the touchdown. They're the ones who always get the girl. Or the boy, as the case may be. Those people and their winning smiles with their bright, white teeth and their clever jokes and their laughing and their personalities and their charm! What makes them so special, huh? What do they have that I don't have, why don't you tell me?!

+1 Orator of Distinction
Because while everybody's got an opinion, some are better than others. This illustrious soul has volunteered to grace GameSpot's pages with an unforgettable editorial. It's the very definition of selflessness. Or, in some cases, self-indulgence.
-
Beta Tester
After all, someone's got to do it. This person was one of the first to test out a new and major GameSpot-related feature, whether it was the GameSpot message boards, GameSpot community tools or our former game server service, GameCenter. This emblem denotes someone who fearlessly led a charge against the first few bugs of a pre-launched product.
-
Way Harsh
For being tougher than beef jerky and not nearly as nice. You have to wonder why these individuals even bother continuing to play games, because pure venomous hatred practically oozes from their pores when playing just about anything. GameSpot's editors would be proud.
-
Old-School
Been gaming since before it was cool. Those who are old-school have been actively busting joysticks, buttons, and gamepads for many years. One look at this individual's collection demonstrates this beyond a reasonable doubt. We salute this longtime aficionado.
-
Serious Collector
Games are more important than paying for food or paying the bills. The serious collector has made a lifelong investment in the pursuit of having way more games than you do. Ignoring review scores, maintaining few friendships so as not to commit oneself to additional spending on birthdays or holidays, this individual is single-mindedly intent on owning lots and lots of games. A noble pursuit, indeed.
-
PlayStation 2 Aficionado
Beats workstations. PlayStation 2 aficionados gravitate towards Sony's ubiquitous console for their gaming entertainment. And why shouldn't they? You got some kind of a problem with the PS2?!

Commercial Challenge 2004 / Ballot Puncher
Your vote really DOES count. These discerning souls exercised their civic duty and rocked the vote in GameSpot's Commercial Challenge 2004. In doing so, they've sifted the commercial wheat from the chaff so that only the best and brightest remain. They've cast their votes for the good of all GameSpot... and they just happened to get entered into a fabulous sweepstakes in the process. What an amazing coincidence!
-
Readers' Choice 2004 Chooser
People's choice representative. All those who participated in GameSpot's 2004 Readers' Choice Awards will share this emblem, and have their collective decisions immortalized in those scarce few games that they rightfully placed among gaming's greatest.
-
Aspiring Designer
No shortage of good ideas. This rare emblem is carried by the few creative souls who became finalists in the ultra-competitive Developer for a Day contest. They put in countless hours formulating the perfect concept for a brand-new game, and we salute them for their effort and creativity. Perhaps GameSpot will be reviewing their games one day.
