Bit of an irrelevant question, but I wasn't sure where else to ask. I know normal collaborators help add bands/artists to the database, but what do the "honorary" collabs do?

I have it on good authority that they participate in secret rituals like this.

Glad to be of help.

Since you asked nicely, I was invited to join the hallowed ranks after running the New Bands Team for a bit. It took me a while to save up the membership fees and recovery from the initiation was long and painful, but it was worth it.
Some of the above is true.

Ok, then... so Honorary Collabs are people who were on teams but not any more.

Just to set the record straight....Honorary Collaborators must satisfy the following requirements:

1. Make sure your refrigerator has the capability to hang your slippers in so you can have cold feet before starting all possible ventures.
2.  Wash behind your ears.
4. Please see #3.
5. Whack-a-mole game consoles for sale really cheap.
6. Shouldn't there only be 5 things on this list?
7. Do the watusi watch I Love Lucy too.
8. 
9. 
10.  shhhhh...... Don't let them find you.....

I saw artists who were missing from the site so I slowly and painstakingly climbed the corporate ladder and eventually got the artists added and then I retired knowing that my job here was done. Besides, I think I was beginning to be a pain in the ass to others trying to run the site, so it was definitely time to step down.
