The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
Let's see if I get this right. (1) Kindness at reverting vandal drivel at my user page, (2) Kindness by you to the community in maintaining vandal watch of an extraordinary nature, and (3) Extraordinary Kindness in maintaining good faith at my talk page (and not having a heart attack) after my "click the vandal 31 hour anon-block tab" slip up during a recent heavy vandalism session.--VS talk 11:59, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Disclaimer[edit]

I know what you're thinking - having a separate page for a 'trophy cabinet' is a bit excessive. But, I'm doing this so I can hide the huge page from the userpage.
This page, not for lack of trying, still looks bare. Not that I think I should have more - I think I need to do more. ;)
