Featured Employee
Featured Employee is a special tradition on SBC (formally known as Community Spotlight and then Employee of the Month). It is awarded to the users who have done the rememberable things in the community or have been very active, similar to the Community Spotlight feature from TV.com. Your avatar and name will be featured on a widget on the forum for three months. You will get a PM knowing you are featured by a Staff Member. If you are featured, you get:
-Featured Employee badge.
-1,000 doubloons.
-Name and avatar featured on widget, along with a description on why you were chosen.
-You can even put "I was the Featured Employee for Fall/Winter/Spring/Summer 2018" in your signature.
On January 1st, 2018, the system was entirely rebooted. Now, a member is featured once every three months to represent a season, and it is made more special. Past members who have been previously featured in EOTM may be able to be a Featured Employee as well.

Despite all of the damage caused by the hurricane in Puerto Rico, crushing has made every attempt to go on SBC and keep us updated. To this date, his house still doesn't have proper power, yet he comes on every day. The choice for Featured Employee was unanimous: crushing is loved by everyone, very dedicated, and one of the best friends anyone could ask for. While he is a moderator, we felt that no one else would have been a better pick than crushing.
