Topic: Announce your rank up, merit or any achievements that makes you feel great! - page 20. (Read 11563 times)

Now my journey to Legendary is only 41 merit away. It's been thrilling to reach this rank after such a long struggle, but I'll still be realistic about continuing to do my best even if this month or the following month I haven't had the chance to secure a Legendary. This may sound strange, but I am very happy when that rating is reached especially after I put in my best effort. I don't expect it to be too long for me now, it would be nice if I reach it at the end of the month.

When is Legendary? 

I was in a data analysis class with other students learning about data analysis softwares. But I always observed one student who was always quiet and reserved. He was always studying lecture materials on Bitcoin during break and after closing hour. And I also observed that he was always looking at an unattractive website that looked an old black and white television screen. Most students have also observed him and one day we decided to ask him what he was always doing. He was generous and openhearted that he introduced us to Bitcointalk. He was a very good teacher that almost all of us understood his Bitcointalk lectures. Four out of almost eight of us decided to register, while others felt it was a ponzi scheme. For some months I abandoned this forum but he kept encouraging and teaching me. Today I am very grateful because with diligence and dedication I have really found a family. I have been enlightened and mentored by members of this community that today I can at-least speak to someone about Bitcoin. Just last week one of those my colleague that overlooked this forum called me and congratulated me for my little and humble advancement in this forum. I never thought I would become a full member in less than one year. I want to thank everyone that have encouraged, criticized and believed me. But I am eternally grateful to that superhuman that kept encouraging me to embrace this forum.    

A words encouragement to an anonymous out there that's just like me.

Starting up any good business, idea or project of any kind isn't that easy. It's something we should all know by now. And that's why I just want to take out this moment to remind every forum users out there, especially the newbies and my fellow junior members  all you need to keep you to continuously being active and doing what you know how best to do here in the forum is self-encouragement first.

You know, I decided to develop the character of encouraging myself on a daily in the forum by clicking on my profile and telling myself am doing better, I don't need to give up, am gradually progressing.

These self acclaimed words keeps and gives me hope that someday I'll be a legendary too. Cause if others can then I can too.

So encourage yourself, reasons being that you're your first fan.

Appreciation for my Junior member rank

Lik they say, no man is an island, and that, to be uplifted in life man needs his fellow man. And that's the show of upliftment I have come to experience and taught by the users of this forum right from the first day I found myself here.

From just a beginner to a newbie and now am a junior member, I want to say a big thanks to everyone of you guys for your merits, comments, and corrections brought me up to this height.

For at first I never knew what actually I was doing here in the forum but the threads and comments of everyone of you have a meaningful to me being here in the forum and now I strive to grow in knowlege here in the forum just like everyone of  you all.

Am glad to be a member of this wonderful comity of diverse people with one goal and objective.

Hold and silver have I not but to say thank you, thank you for this unqualified milestone.

Frankly, it's no wise decision to prattle about oneself, but I'm more than delighted so have got too share this. As one of the beautiful thing's I have seen is, seeing yourself grow,( Nothing's Beautiful as Growth) And for the privilege to read and learn without payment of tuition fees or school fees, it's been a great time reading in the forum,and also meeting diverse people all over the world indirectly, seems like a total new planet to me.
 Kudo's to @BitcoinGirl.Club for setting up a great coordinated thread, thanks to @LoyceV @The Pharmacist, @CryptopreneurBrainboss @Lovesmayfamilis, I don't want too talk loads and to all those( Both mentioned and not ) that have contributed to the growth of newbies and the community. Y'all are GOATED.
I turned a Full Member yesterday



With the Bearish state of the market a whole are in the state, a little bit of advice and reminder is for you too be patient and HOLD!

Cheers!

I woke up to the realization that I've just transited from Junior member Rank to Member Rank. I joined the forum on 17th of March, 2022: I've used exactly 10 weeks and 5 days in the forum. The period spent here haven't been exactly easy, but my little achievements so far has made the whole experience worthwhile. I am indeed happy and grateful for everyone who has helped—either by merits or comments, especially the corrections on my post that taught me invaluable lessons—in this little journey to achieve this feat. I also want to say this to every newbie who find themselves struggling to survive here:  "there's no limit to what you can achieve".

The journey to the next rank (Full Member) starts with immediate effect—though getting there seems impossible and difficult due to the requirements, my aim remains to contribute towards this society of knowledge and to stick to the rules that guide this cryptocurrency  universe (the forum).

Yours dearly
Bamjos
Thanks!

APPRECIATION TO MY MEMBER RANK

Am so so excited with this opportunity, it's like for measure if this thread was specifically made for me . I remember when I got my first merit as a beginner I jumped up with so much euphoria as one who have just won a free unexpensed paid trip to Tokyo. And then gradually I got to the member rank without a prior knowledge that there's need for appreciation to myself for the efforts have put in thus far, and most especially to everyone who had in one way or the other supported, encouraged and constructively criticized me with the aim to grow me up.

When I started seeing other forum users creating threads to celebrate their new ranks (especially member rank) I just feel sad for myself, and it was like am ungrateful to those who have mentor, supported, and encouraged me up to my member rank, wishing I just could make up an appreciation post for them all even if it's not about me. But on the other hand there was a feeling that it was too late to do so since it has been weeks to a month there about since I ranked up to member rank.

But right now with this opportunity made available here, I felt and developed a different mindset wether it's coming late or not. From my deepest heart and widest smiles am appreciating those who motivated, directed encouraged, guided, supported and constructively criticized my works, actions and inactions here in the forum and outside the forum. You guys are the most amazing.

Even now as I work towards greater rank's as to becoming a full member I won't hesitate to ring the bells of celebration and appreciations immediately I ranked up to full member. Am glad to be here, and I wouldn't stop making threads/posts with quality content to the best of my ability.

wooooow..... Am so excited about this at last.

Celebration ends when another celebration begins. In the month of March I was rank up to the member rank and after then I learned a lot of things and I was so happy, and I became a full member on the 26 of May, 2022. This is a forum of celebration and vast knowledge.

I will like to appreciate those who direct, guide, encourage and help me from one way or the other. I call them my professors in the forum. Such as:
lovesmayfamilis, LoyceV, JayJuanGee, The Pharmacist, Ratimov, CryptopreneurBrainboss, fillippone, Zlantann,  Pokapoka124, CryptoHeadlineNews, Davidvictorson, Wiwo etc. Please if I didn't call your name, please, you are also among. Just that I can't list all.

I also want to use this opportunity to apologise to those that I have offended through my comments or post unknowingly, please forgive me.

I am in this forum to learn and to contribute when I have learned. I am not for the forum's goods but for the forum good. I learned mostly from Fillippone threads.

Finally, becoming a full member was not a dream for now because when I visited and viewed some users that are full member, and they registered since 2019 & 2020, and I also saw someone registered early this year and the person is a full member now. And I picked courage. And now here am I, a full member rank. I am also encouraging my juniors not to give up. Continue learning, your next level is very close.

Excitement ends when another excitement begins.

With 35 days clocked in on my dash in terms of " Total time logged in" I am counting down to breaking the 3000 posts marker which is huge for me, a symbol of being an active member of the forum which might not matter much to others, but I have seen myself grow with the forum and is a milestone worth some recognition in my books. Btw let the 35 days not fool you, I have come to know some big names of the forum such as BiPolarBob most generous guy ever, Lauda and many others whose names might be in the archives but can't be forgotten...I have also come to see the black book aka blacklist which many would have found themselves on by now ...all thanks to the BitMixer sig . Cheers to a bigger, better and stronger forum of tomorrow 🥂.

I left 100 days of my life to this forum and stepped into the 100 days club I admit that I have a Bitcointalk addiction In the middle of a job, I open a new tab and enter bitcointalk and its happen without realising . Its like you are opening the door of fridge and starts to think why did i came here I will call this addiction as a "Bitcointalkophobia"  

I'll probably congratulate myself on the member ranking, even though it's still not worth saying because there are still many references and there's still a lot I don't know about the ins and outs of this forum and I still need to read a lot here.

I've known this forum not too long ago and I should probably thank Steamtyme for creating a youtube channel Steam tyme which uploaded some videos related to bitcointalk although I did find this by accident but this forum made me curious and finally decided to create an account in early January this year.

It was really funny at first because I posted in the wrong place and got reprimanded by dkbit98, Upgrade00  and lucifur as a result of my careless actions, but fortunately apart from the warning I was also directed to find information about beginners first which made me feel more challenged and more willing to contribute here. Thanks dude for contributing to what I'm doing here.
Now I have reached Member here even though this is still very low when compared to colleagues who were here before but I am quite proud of my achievements now

I am so much delighted for getting to the rank of a full member with so much contributions from reputable members in this forum. It all started like a dream that could never be accomplished with so much things I needed to learn here every single day I logged in here. I was like this journey would take me a while but life can be very funny atimes.

It all started like a baby trying to learn how to write and read. The journey was never easy for me and I thought I will never come back to the forum and continue my normal activities here learning new ideas. I had to leave the forum for one or two issues that had affect my health and dream of being a self employed graduate. Honestly the lifestyle of a white collar employee is not as interesting to me as having my own business here. I left for completely four months or more to build myself and fixed my healthy imbalance so I could be self sufficient, and grow up with vast knowledge in life.

I am very grateful to everyone I've learnt from and that had added to my success to this current position. I have read so many good posts here from reputable members that had improved my intellectual and enlightenment on cryptocurrency in general.
My appreciation goes to everybody on this forum and other great men that had strengthen my weakness and encouraged me through posts I've read and others. A big thanks to @LoyceV, @BitcoinGirl.Club @fillippone @DdmrDdmr, @JayJuanGee, @The Pharmacist, @Ratimov, @CryptopreneurBrainboss  @Welsh, @o_e_l_e_o, @hugeblack @Slow death.

Thanks everyone!

Yes, I like your words. because it made me realize that I would also be so proud that I could be here in this unique forum. where quality is valued and waste is cleaned. what a fun forum. although I rarely comment on great posts, but I spend a lot of time reading quality posts and discussions in them. although sometimes there are still many terms that I do not know. but that's what makes me search more and continue to learn a lot from the people in this forum.

CONGRATULATION TO EVERYONE IN THIS FORUM

I recently became senior member. I’ve waited for my activity to clocked 250 to achieve this status. Honestly I can’t complain, it’s better than lacking merits to rank up, for this reason I consider myself lucky . I'm so proud of myself for reaching senior member at this time. I’m grateful to everyone who has been helpful,  thank you to those who work hard to keep the forum sane.

I'm Despairo, a malaysian citizen who interested about Bitcoin. Firstly I have heard a word "Bitcoin" on 2017 when there's sudden pump and reached $19K. But I didn't care anything at that times and just continued my normal life until I looking for side jobs to cover my expenses.

I searched "how to earn money via online" in google and I read an article mention "faucet". I was interested with faucet since it's very easy to claim some satoshi by solve a captcha or watch short video. I give all of my effort and time to claim every faucet until reached the minimum withdrawal. After around 3 weeks, I have reached the minimum withdrawal and that's the first Bitcoin transaction I ever made.

But since 3 weeks is really long and I didn't earn to much, I decided to stop claiming faucet and learn some Bitcoin courses. I did earn some money by trading, but mostly I earn through investing. A year passed and I joined this forum, honestly I don't know where and how I can found this forum, I'm completely forgot about that.

My first post was about mini seminar launched by myself on 2020, it's my first contribution about Bitcoin related stuff especially for Malaysian. I feel happy to share my limited knowledge about Bitcoin to average joe or people who doesn't understand Bitcoin at all. Those participants still contact me about his Bitcoin investment and thankfully to me for introduce Bitcoin to him.

Then day after day I keep learning about the forum rules, trustlist, feedback, how's the forum work and regularly create post in my local thread. I got so many merits when I was started with my first post, I even got rewarded with the most merited... I keep posting and contributing, mostly about Bitcoin, privacy, exchanges, and forum related stuffs. I didn't really care with merit at that time, what I think is improving my quality post and gain more knowledge.

When I got 250 merits, I realized my merit start slowing down than my merit was under 250. I don't think my quality post is decreased, but I would think the higher your merit, the higher difficult you will earn the next merit. But it's understandable since anyone always need to improve their quality to become better, not stucked at one point.

Currently my contributions on this forum is:
1. Creating high quality posts in my local thread and translating high quality topics to learn more about the subject.
- Arti bitcoin dan kelebihannye
- Cara membeli Bitcoin di Malaysia
- Data covid-19 Malaysia dan cara prevent
- [GUIDE] Panduan pemula untok gunekan Trust sistem yang betol oleh LoyceV
- Apa yang anda mahu tahu tentang BTC futures hadapan tapi takut untuk tanya!

2. Creating topics in global board to share my knowledge.
- El Salvador retirees protest against Bitcoin as legal tender
- Compilation of all "Scam Accusations" threads related to exchanges V.2
- [GUIDE] 10 complete steps for new casino into this forum

Based on BPIP stats, I'm currently 662th most earned merit and DT2 with 1 strength only. There's not much forum achievements I got, unlike other people got most merit, most active, most trusted, most recognized and most posts. But I believe it's take times and I will continue my journey in this forum. Still, getting 297 merit isn't easy and I was impressed I can get them, I hope I will ranked up to Hero member very soon.

Hey, I am a member and just now I realised my ranked changed because you need merits on this forum. At first I thought these are like the thumbs up on cracked or something similar, but just now I saw it actually helps you to rank up.
Thanks to everyone helping me ranking up.

MY FEAR,  MY JOY, MY APPRECIATION!
i joined the forum 3 months ago and being part of this educating society has been one of my greatest experience, though it all started with me procrastinating a lot of the plans I had to start my activity on the forum. At first, I found the interface of the site so overwhelming, It wasn't easy finding my way around. Also seeing people's profiles, especially people with thousands of posts, activities and merits, made me feel intimidated. I used few weeks on battling with my inner mind to create my first thread, I kept postponing this plan, but thank goodness, I finally overcame myself and created the thread.

Consequentially, that thread earned me my first merit and there was where my Joy and sense of fulfillment started, it was as if I won a scholarship, "so someone finally merited my post!" I exclaimed. Even in all these I still feel intimidated, as I said earlier, anytime I come across profile of people in higher ranks, but I've learnt to use that to my advantage, I've come to realise that "nothing worthwhile ever come easily" and that "a journey of thousand miles start with a step taken". Yeah, I took that first step and I am no more where I use to be: this also delight me, that feeling that I'm on a journey and I'm making progress, that I'm growing, that I'm learning, not only about cryptocurrency, but also how to be more constructive and creative in my writing skill, and most especially how to be disciplined (patient). All of these have affected my life in the real world and I consider them achievement in my journey so far.

Finally, my Joy came to its climax early this week as I transited from Newbie rank to Jr. Member, that's my greatest achievement so far and I look forward to achieving more on the forum. My appreciation goes to everyone existing on this space, to those who gave responses to my threads and clarify my ignorance, also to those who were magnanimous enough to merit my posts; I'm grateful, Thanks!
