Founder's device: Admin and Editor awards may be granted by the Founder, Nicjansma, as he sees fit. Due to their special nature, they are not recognized as additional awards and regular devices are not utilized. Instead, the ribbon with the Founder's device, the Gold Frame, is displayed separately. If multiple Founder's devices are received, they are displayed in the Previously Awarded Board. Founder's Devices take precedence over their immediate counterparts in the display. Awards not eligible for the Founder's device are:

  • Founder's Consistent Service Award
  • Founder's Outstanding Member of the Year Award
  • Founder's Superior Editor of the Year Award
  • Founder's Exceptional Recruiter of the Year Award
  • Recruiter Award
