    @M_Balje has been with us since '02. Can't think of too many of us that have been around for 17 years! I'd say he, for that reason alone, is one of the biggest Bond fans. :)

    Cough...Nackers...cough (2002..March). Even so, the dedication of some of the guys around here makes me feel like a novice fan.

    The biggest Bond fan on MI6 Community? Pass. I've no clue.
    That's okay, I couldn't answer some of the previous questions either. Thank you for your contribution, all the same.
    That last one isn t so hard if you only take the real Bond fans into consideration. Which is only me as far as I can tell.
    I was just about to nominate myself, but I think you may be right.

    You are certainly a contender, with your huge collection of memorabilia and replicas, as well as your encyclopaedic knowledge of dialogue.

    Another is @RogueAgent who has built himself a Bondcave.

    I stand corrected!

    Who likes the most Bond films? That's a start.

    Expressing what one likes is the purest form of being a Bond fan.

    Well I have been on this forums for 13 years now.. Crazy. (If you count the OG forum). I joined in 2006.

    Maybe an old timer award? ;)

    I know there’s still maybe 5-10 of us who have been here for a long time!

    :) Just having some fun, in between official rounds. As expected, I got a bit of amusement out of some of the comments here coming across as serious responses. Of course, there is no answer to who is the 'biggest fan', and it would be unfair to (almost) every other member here if one were chosen as such. Same with 'best moderator', I think. Sure, we all have our favourites, but it might not sit well with other mods to pick out one as the 'best'.
    You are certainly a contender, with your huge collection of memorabilia and replicas, as well as your encyclopaedic knowledge of dialogue.
    Thanks mate. The embarrassing fact that I haven't quite read all the novels yet would automatically null my chances. Maybe next year.
    Another is @RogueAgent who has built himself a Bondcave.
    We keep hearing about that Bondcave, but never see any photos? Personally, I think Rogue Agent was given an ultimatum by the missus. :O

    Biggest Sean Connery Fan and Biggest George Lazenby Fan, no problem. Biggest Bond Fan is an issue? Or it's just in the spirit of recognizing worthy individuals and board content. Or outright fun, as mentioned earlier.

    I agree that David is one of the biggest Bond fans out there. Pity he rarely posts here.

    Thanks for voting for my ‘Bond....comments while you watch’ thread and putting me through , it’s just a free chat for us all to comment while something is fresh in our minds that we like/dislike or suddenly see something new or controversial,sometimes we need exposing in our beloved 007 films - or just want to comment generally !!

    Thanks again !

    Damn, I didn't vote. At least my candidates for funniest member and best thread won.

    Most film-related threads here are about analyzing the films at a distance, with some degree of hindsight. Bond...comments while you watch is an exception. It offers the most immediate connection with the films. It's about the "right now."

    Not to worry @mattjoes there are still 2 more rounds to vote on coming up.

    Well said. You can pause the film to reflect and record deep and intricate thoughts, as opposed to after the film, when some of these ideas may be forgotten.

    Thanks to everyone who voted for me, and sorry for the arm twisting.

    You know, I think a celebration's in order. Thundy.....LET'S BLAZE! :)>- B-)
    Nice.
    POAL, we'll be sure to pass it on the left hand side.
