That's exactly right and that's why you're making a good example for other users. But whereas the User of the Month used to be chosen only by the admins, (Me: hey Kakki I was thinking of making ________ the UotM. Her: Sure. XD), now they are elected by all the users, so no one will judge. Besides, you didn't get the rights that now come with the job.
