Loves turtles, hates goats, no word on whether he’s partial to chickens but I have it on good authority he’s totes into cats, you know, like maybe a little bit too much. Sorry, just projecting my own problems onto other people there. Ben’s my spirit animal; he goes travelling and has much nicer hair than me. Dick. I bet he’d put on a great barbecue, I’d probably embarrass myself and eat too much too quickly and be known as the sausage gobbler among all his friends who didn’t get to have one. Sorry about that hypothetical barbecue Ben. He ran the brilliant Elimination 8 which I was fortunate enough to take part in; it was so much fun and Ben deserves more credit than he gets for all the time and effort he put into the tasks he provided for us, it was a great experience. Ben earned points because he “is quite funny and his little jokes with people make me laugh. Also makes some good posts and not afraid to poke fun at himself. Very nice person”, “puts effort into his posts, and is a generally friendly and approachable guy”, “is funny and kind”, “was the first person to welcome me when I joined the forum and he’s been nice to me ever since, great lad” and is “a great guy, I can always have good light hearted "banter" with him and he's just generally a nice person. I want to apologise for being cold following Survivor and offer him some lovely ML points.” A nice cold glass of fresh ML points, mm mm mm. Ben is a “fun and welcoming member” and “I love him dearly and although there's miles between us we will always be connected emotionally and spiritually... thankfully never physically ew.” One voter said “Benjaminge is a great chap, easy to chat with, easy to insult (just post a pic of a goat on his wall) and I'm glad that he's no longer a mod really, I've grown to like him even more than before.” One member gave him points as an “obligatory eye-candy vote” while another said they have to “support my Bristol member.” Voters gave reasons such as “despite never really rating Ben as a mod, in the last six months or so I’ve come to really like and value him as a member after he stepped down. Friendly, often funny, and with valid points to make, he’s a real asset to this forum (and the nights we have in Plug DJ)…good job he never left even though he said he was going to...” and “I love Benji, always will, shame he bats for the other team else I'd drag him down a dark alley at the drop of a hat, someone keep watch lol. He's very funny and he's a warm hearted kind sweet guy” when they gave Ben their points. One member said that he “helped out a bit with my plans for travelling, often provides a few funny moments too which is quite rare on TiBB these days.” As this user puts it, Ben is “my oldest and dearest friend on TiBB, we've been competitors and worked together side by side in forum games and on the forum as fellow moderators. Ben has ALWAYS appeared in my top ten and, for as long as he is still posting, will always appear on it. He's hilarious and he is a well established user on this forum. Always a bridesmaid never the bride... who deserves to go that one step further in this countdown and actually win it! He is a perfect father to Ian and loves his /rice ha2. Who the funk is ukturtle?” Who the funk IS ukturtle, indeed.
Still remaining: *Kate*, Josy, Kazanne, Lee, Livia, Marc, MeMyselfandI, Nathan, Niamh, reece(:, Salman, Shaun, Zee.
