Topic: Forum made *Legendary Member - page 3. (Read 1194 times)

I appreciate your merits and the encouragement from you and others on this thread. I would continue to contribute to the forum as best as I can. Fingers crossed, in the hope that it doesn't take over a year.
I agree, the forum should be interactive, and knowledge should be shared between members. But most do not make any effort to join discussions qualitatively.

Edit: Created this thread to be a motivation for lower-ranking members. The forum rewards efforts.
Moving this back to beginners and help

First of I would like to congratulate your success one ranking up to the Sr. Member rank and I'm sure that you can reach the remaining higher ranks we have with the pos quality you have but I like to point out that we might be thinking that “effort” is something we need to earn merits which isn't really the case. If you are a spammer or shit poster or just a person who reads the title of the thread and post yeah sure you need a little bit more effort than that. But to be honest a forum is made not just so we can post but we literally need to read and learn before we can even post, that's not called effort because that's how a forum should properly work. This kind of common practice is just overshadowed by sig campaigns and bounties amking a lot of members to post first rather than read making their posts quality low.

I agree.  You registered here well after the merit system started, and it isn't easy to get to Sr. Member from scratch so congratulations. 

You don't necessarily have to learn more, you just have to continue making posts that catch the eye of members who've got merits to give.  Since you've already earned over 250 merits, you're obviously doing something right.  You'll get to Hero eventually, and I hope for you that it doesn't take over a year, which is about how long it took for you to earn your first 250 merits. 

I took a look at your merit page, and it's obvious you've got a few merit fans.  It's also good that you're giving a lot of merits to others.  I'll take a look through your post history and see if I can help you out a little.

Congratulations on ranking up, you'll surely become a hero member soon as you already have a good activity already.
Earning merit for you is not a problem as you have ranked up easily to Full member, now a sr member already.
You will continue to contribute to the forum, expect your reputation will be good and of course with you valuable post, you will continue to earn merits that will help you achieve your next target.

Congratulations to you, for achieving the rank position as a member of Sr.

You need more Merit to step towards the Hero, of course with good ideas and posts that are meaningful to everything here that you have.

Everything can be achieved with a strong will and will, nothing is impossible while we want, on and on.

Welcome to the club.

Keep putting in a lot of effort into posts and contributions here and you will be a hero in no time!

Lots of threads similar to this have been made recently, and while it's a little cliche, it's also evidence of the fact that the merit system is working and it's possible to rank up organically if you put effort into what post and try to be helpful to others while being relevant

A little over four months ago I became a full member on the forum, and I now earned enough merits to become a Sr. Member, and I'm now a Hero member. Mine is not the fastest rise to this rank, nor is the rank the highest, but it is a milestone achievement in my Bitcoin and bitcointalk journey. This journey has been very beneficial and has improved my knowledge of various aspects of the technology and has allowed me to explore many many other areas of it. I could make a long-winded post about my ranking up, but newbies should recognize the keyword which is effort.

I use the phrase: forum made, even though all my merits are earned, because I recognize the contribution of the community members towards mine and the ranking up of so many other members and also because what I post is gotten from what I learn when I read the post of others.

The obvious next target is Hero Legendary Member, but first I'll have to learn more, improve on my discussions and also explore the other areas of the forum.
