post by kullervopete, something spontaneously dawned on me. Over the years there have been many fantastic contributions to the Sibelius Forum from its members. Naturally, some of those contributions stand out among others and I thought it would be nice to have a way of recognizing them at the Sibelius Forum.

I am a just a little bit uneasy with this, as it is wholly subjective and a little auspicious of me to proclaim myself as the "Marker", but that said, I have read all of the 2600+ posts here to date, and have a good sense of how the new ones fit into the whole of the content at the forum. So I ask members to humour me and allow me this priviledge.

I will not be marking posts retro-actively, that would be rather chaotic, so consider kullervopete's the first and hopefully not the last here at the forum!
