Congratulations to our latest Shining Light award winner, @Firedog 🔥🐕

I’ve been waiting for them to get to this point for a few weeks, but it’s now happened. 

 

@BPLightlog has climbed to third place in the all-time points leaderboard, just under the 20k points mark. 

 

Whether you value OVO Forum points or not, these points are the easiest way to visualise the help and support that a forum member has provided another member. Helping lots of people always makes you a winner in my book, so BPLightlog you’re our ‘Shining Light’ for this month. 

 

Let’s take a second to outline what ~20,000 points look like:

 

  • 22 topics
  • 1830 replies
  • 98 solutions !

Content highlights? I can think of a few:

 

This really should have more views. It’s the best content we have on third party usage data apps:

 

 

Over 6000 views for this one:

 

 

Some first hand experience sharing that is invaluable to anyone looking to decarbonise their home:

 

 

Thanks for hanging around here, @BPLightlog. Even if you decide to move on, you’ve left your mark and it’s there to help others long into the future.

Well that’s a surprise - I don’t think I post much at all and there’s lots of key contributors like Blastoise, Jeffus, Firedog to name just a few. 
The forum is around 6 years old I think? So I’m amazed I’ve got to that point. 
Most volunteers here combine to give really helpful advice so I’m happy to be part of that, and will continue but maybe less frequently as my switch is done .. just waiting for those pesky meters to re-sync 😂

Amazing work @BPLightlog!

Another congratulations is in order, for the OVO Forum’s MVP and top scorer @Blastoise186. They hit the 70,000 points mark whilst I was away. Well done Blastoise186! 

 

With 352 best answers and views to their topics exceeding 100k, they’re a true shining light. Same as last time for the voucher preference?
