Brown Belt Test - @Stanar: Pass 3/3

Once a Mahaloian reaches 8000 points they become eligible for their Brown Belt on Mahalo. However, that belt is only presented after Mahalo staff consult the members recent history and activity to see if that Mahaloian is in fact ready to become a Brown Belt. Today we test: @Stanar

Jeff Hoard: Pass
==============

Stanar has been a valuable member of the Mahalo community for some time now and it's a great pleasure to present him with his brown belt. Stanar is a generous user by tipping 45% of his Mahalo Answers earnings back towards the community by asking lots of tipped questions, Stanar is ranked 28th in the question category. Stanar is also always involved in most Mahalo themed threads. Stanar has only dipped his feet in the Tasks and Page Management side of Mahalo, we hope to see him active in those soon.

Leslie Cole: Pass
==============
Stanar has been a valuable asset to Mahalo Answers since the day he joined. He is definitely known in the community as someone who helps other users when ever he can and is very active in commenting on other peoples answers which shows us that he isn't here just for the points! He has the hang of answering and asking questions and he is not afraid to splash around some of his cash among the community and has even taken 10 pages under his management. I think he deserves his brown belt and I look forward to him going for his black belt.

Camilla Andersson: Pass
==============
Stanar participates in Mahalo Answers by asking and answering
questions on a variety of topics. Many of the questions Stanar has
answered covers technology and Internet. Stanar has the ability to
explain technical and scientific issues so that they are easy to
understand and often includes an image that further details the
process. All of Stanar's answers have been selected helpful. Stanar is
also a generous Mahalo Answers user who has given back almost half of
the tip received to the community. Stanar has completed several tasks
and manages 10 pages on the site. We thank Stanar for his
contributions and congratulate him on his brown belt!

Thanks so much Jeff, Leslie and Camilla for your nice comments and to all the Maholoians.

In the beginning I used to spend a lot of time here, but now trying to balance my time at home and online (after some complaints from my wife). And hence it took longer than I expected to reach this milestone here.

I do work in the Tech industry and focus towards S&T category. I am more of an AudioVisual person than just text. I try to include pictures whenever possible.

My next goal is to balance my time here on other activities on Mahalo than just the Q&A.

Thanks, yes it's been a long wait from purple to brown belt...
I did reach the mark before going on vacation and I knew it has to be voted the staff members. This morning I noticed that it changed to brown belt from (-1 to brown belt). I am happy to reach another milestone on Mahalo.

Nicely done @stanar! You're certainly an asset to the Mahalo community, and I toast to you today! You're going to do great, I have no doubt at all.

But now, may I suggest some avatar updates to maybe go with your new brown belt?:

yes, I felt the same when saw that number on my profile. It took longer than I expected.

How long will it take to reach 100k points on Mahalo?

Thanks again.
