Member Eklek has reached the Gold 100 mark. A Sifter of few words, usually preceded by an asterisk. Eklek doesn't reveal much in comments but I have had the good fortune of this Sifter laying an expert hand on my tags and channels resulting in a more cohesive, efficient and streamlined VideoSift.

Even Eklek's avatar is mysterious, and I've come to regard Eklek's presence as that of an minor Sift Deity. I know not gender nor nationality, but I've heard rumors of this Sifter being Dutch. Or Swedish.

The videos Eklek submits are certainly some of the greatest in quality, perhaps so much so that the time and mental investment needed to grasp their depth leave some Sifters in the dark. This has lead to a disproportionate PQ which I think we owe to ourselves to revisit...

Eklek's Sifttalk posts are also characteristic in style, those of a clockmaker or careful craftsman, all pertain to the finer workings of the Sift, and how to make it better.

So please let's all applaud this master of the Sift, because for all the times we didn't tag correctly or messed up our channel assignments, Eklek was often there to pick up our slack.

Congratulations Eklek!

Maybe I'm an idiot, maybe siftbot hates me...I don't know, I'm not a doctor.

But I do know that I believe my video should still be on the top 15.

Note: If I am just missing some major bylaw that has existed for centuries feel free to rub my face in my own stupidity.

Hi There,

I recently created a playlist with the same name as an existing playlist and a bizzare thing happened: the sift let me do it. Beyond the fact that this was a stupid thing to do, is this a bug or a feature?

The problem that arises is that even though you can add videos to both play lists separately, you can only access one of them (the first created). The only way to remove the videos from the playlist dupe is to delete all the videos from the original list, delete the original list, and then you can access the duped list.

Am I making any sense here? Am I missing some voodoo-siftery?

thank you all for playing

Nothing like group interactivity to bring out the truth.

My avatar is the equivalent of a big guy going by the nickname "tiny"

I love my frog wearing a mouse backpack, but I think as I've matured into a 100star member, I need to evolve to the next level of avatar. I know you all know me by the famous frogmouse mutant and you hate to see it leave. Since this is a site dedicated to interactively selected content, I've decided to put the decision of my new avatar in the hands of my fellow sifters. Whatever you want, however you perceive me, however you'd like to look at my avatar and laugh at me and how stupid I am—I don't care, I'll rock it for at least 1 month from the day the decision is made by you all.

Proof that you don't have to have to pass a 3rd grade english exam to do well on Video Sift, our good friend choggie accomplishes an amazing 500 star points! Let's all congratulate the man that types his comments by repeatedly mashing his head on the keyboard.
