It's never easy to survive a decade in an online forum unless you get something worthwhile out of it - I mean not only from the forum, but also from bitcoin [investing and trading]. I don't expect you to be the only staff member to want to celebrate - but you all deserve to celebrate such a milestone in the community.

EFS - congratulations to you, you deserve the high respect of the members of this community, including myself.
As someone who has given up on the forum twice for long periods of time, even though I had a lot to gain, I couldn't agree more.

Congratulations! I'm guessing that this decade has been quite fruitful, and I'm hoping that you squeezed every opportunity that was presented along your path. I'm also not far from closing one full decade; I signed up on December 7, 2014, even though I was browsing the forum without an account way before my signup date. It's crazy and awfully scary to think about how fast time progresses. We'll soon be 50 years old before we realize it.

Thanks for all the good wishes. I've never opened a thread like that before but I feel like ten years is a good achievement.

What I said about forum in last sentence was just a joke. I don't know when/if new forum software comes, I just like current forum and theme. I won't say no to better moderation tools though.


I see you also reached to be a staff here. Congrats to that to!  Smiley

Thanks. I'm a moderator since December 2013.

You have written it here as your first post, although I had to use Google Translate to understand your writing in Turkish.

I couldn't post my first post because of newbie restrictions at that time. Newbie jail is gone but I guess 6 minutes waiting time between every actions for Brand New accounts still exist.

Please be careful, some accounts take advantage of such topics as an easy way to get merits.

I'm aware of the situation but I guess they don't get rich with 2 merits. I also observe that merit circulation has dropped across the forum. Being a merit source is tiring and thankless work, I understand sources who give up distributing merits. Adding new sources brings vitality to the forum but it's up to Admins.

10 years of experience is definitely a lot to gain not only about how you made good new friends but you also became one of the people who experienced the ups and downs in bitcoin and of course the hope for you to be around longer must be realised because it is a shame if an experienced person just leaves the forum.
Congratulations to you for reaching this point and this is also an encouragement to me as someone who is still quite new here.
Thanks also to you and to the people who are always active and moderate the forum to keep it running.

I signed up on 26th July 2013 and I'm here for a decade.
Massive, this is massive my man. I think there are not many members who are here from long time. The last one I saw was from OgNasty and now you. It feels good to see such posts sometimes. Congratulation brother.

I registered in this forum ten years ago. I've found out about Bitcoin and this forum in early 2013 but didn't need to register back then. I signed up on 26th July 2013 and I'm here for a decade. I never imagined I'd be here this long. This forum has been an important part of my life, just like Bitcoin.

Glad I decided to sign-up here 10 years ago. Here I met very good people from all nationalities, made good friends and had job opportunities. Even though sometimes I took a break from writing to the forum due to dramas and tiredness, I never stopped moderating the forum. I tried my best to make the forum work as intended.

I hope to be here longer. I think I'll stay here until Theymos decides to close the forum. I would like to see at least new forum software. Tongue

A decade has come and gone... congratulations on this remarkable milestone!

Regardless of any criticisms about whether it should have been announced in a new thread or not, the truth is that there are only a handful users who can boast such longstanding accounts.

Maintaining activity for such a long period is truly something to take pride in, especially on a forum that still operates on 14-year-old technology without a mobile app or responsive design. Unlike other platforms that have evolved over time, this forum has remained largely unchanged. Thanks to theymos Smiley

Once again, congratulations on reaching this momentous milestone. As for myself, I've been here for over 5 years now Smiley

I generally dislike self-congratulatory threads of this nature, so I'm not going to give out any merits or praise but ten years on the forum and becoming a staff member does deserve some respect, so that much I'll grant you.  Sticking around bitcointalk for that many years is kind of an anomaly I think; most newbies don't form attachments to the forum like you did, and when they get sick of doing bounties or get banned they just disappear.

And yeah, I like the old-school look of the forum too.  It hasn't changed much since I registered in 2015 except for some of the functionalities.  A consistent user interface is something that a lot of companies (ebay is a great example) just don't understand the importance of.  Who wants a website they visit frequently to keep changing appearance and other stuff every month?  Bleh.

It's always been somewhat of a mystery to me how one becomes a staff member.  I know reporting is a factor, but I'm not sure what else Theymos looks for.  Eh, just thinking aloud.

Happy 10 year anniversary I guess time is running out because I remember the date I created my account and it's amazing that you witnessed two or three halvings with all the rush and absence from the forum.

Congratulations @EFS, by now you have gotten a good experience concerning forum and it's not easy to be in the for at least two years but you have stayed in forum more that, my self its recent I registered but the knowledge I acquired in the forum over bitcoin is higher and with forum someone who's communication in writing that is poor will change hand in writing, I suspect that many of us that is good quality learn from the forum. 10 years experience can't be use to compare to three years and half year experience person, congrats boss.

Great, another anniversary lately. Moreover, among the staff.

You and the rest of the forum administration had a celebration, didn't you? Smiley

From whom did you hear about the existence of this forum? Google search for the word "bitcoin" or friends recommended to you?

Indeed, you are absolutely right in saying that there are a lot of wonderful people here and, most importantly, they are all united by one idea - bitcoin.

10 years of moderation deserves full dedication and, of course, it is worthy of respect. Thank you for your hard work and contribution to bitcointalk, for your time and for allowing users like me to enjoy the fruits of your labor and dedication.

Let's hope that the forum will exist for a long time and you are with it.

I sincerely thank you and congratulate you on this landmark achievement.

Let not the desire to continue the activity here and further does not fade away in you.

Congratz dear EFS for completing 10 years of your life on Bitcointalk. This period looks very long but when you build your interest in something and you begin to love it. Then you cannot keep track of time. And at the end you think of it like it was yesterday. You have done so good till now and i do not think this forum is going anywhere as this forum is as old as BTC and the creator of BTC was on this forum too.

Which makes it very unique.

Congrats EFS. I've also passed the 10 year mark recently (back in May). Crazy how long we've been here already.
Congratulations to you too dear Mitchell, you have also passed 10 years on this forum and my words for EFS are same for you. The time period is not small but it looks like it was a thing of yesterday when you build up love for it. I hope you will grow more and could spend another decade here or for infinity.

Happy 10 year anniversary EFS!
For many people (including me) finding about Bitcoin and registering in Bitcointalk forum was probably one of the best decision in their life.
 
I hope to be here longer. I think I'll stay here until Theymos decides to close the forum. I would like to see at least new forum software. Tongue
It would be nice to live long enough to see this change, if for nothing else than at least for better support for mobile devices.
Adding profile badges showing age or years since registering in forum would also be cool.

Deepweb'i bilmeyen btc forum moderatörü ha? Çok acayipmiş.  Smiley

Bu arada dün kayıt oldum, mesaj yazmıştım ama gönderilemedi nedense. Tüm Türk bitcoincilere selam. Smiley

EFS, congrats. You've been here for 1 decade and still wish it could last longer. I'm absolutely sure you never thought that during your forum journey in the early days, you would be one of the important users to moderate your local board (staff). Thanks for your contributions to the forum regardless of whether we have ever discussed something with each other at a topic or not, but the forum and its users deserve give appreciation your dedication.
