I saw a thread not long ago which gave me an idea. I was thinking of perhaps collecting a list of Legends on h2g2, write about them, and then maybe turn it in to a guide entry for the front page or the Post.
I'll start off with a few that spring to mind :-
- Greebo : "~grins~" [need I say more]
- Shazz : The head of the best community newspaper ever
- Wow Bagger : The man of a million cartoons...
And I've probably still done a bit of a diservice to them. If anyone has more to add, then please do
BTW : I'm not going to mention DNA, because while he is legend - he is more famous for what he did off the site and not on it.
Any more suggestions, stick them here

Ah, the name Wowbagger has just reminded me.
"Arthur Dent?"
"Yes?"
"Arthur Philip Dent?"
"Yes?"
"You're a jerk"
Ok, seriously now:

vegiman. He was the originator of The Post as well as a feedback structure that inspired Peer Review. Search the Guide for "Fun Run" and you should find it.

Is this going to be Researchers only, or Researchers and Italics? Got to include Peta if it's the latter

Well I'm gonna vote for mark moxon U13, certainly one of the most froody editors who've graced this site over the years.
A very very nice man to kidnapp. (don't ask. )

She hasn't been here that long, but I think we'd all agree that Saturnine is the rudest, angriest researcher that everybody gets on with!

I can't believe that we've got to post 17 without anyone mentioning Sir Bossel, legendary scout (among other things). Well, he's not a legendary scout, he's an actual scout. But anyway
