Topic: [Merits Giveaway]2019 in review. A big thanks to many forum users. - page 6. (Read 2476 times)

Wow what a wonderful year 2019 has been, i registered on the forum in 2017 and was somehow inactive and when I'm active I wasn't as productive as I'm currently. Late 2018 I encountered my savior so my story on this forum will never be complete without mentioning the almighty LoyceV.

Here's my list;

• LoyceV, this was the user that turned me from a net negative forum user to who I'm today, he help me get a fresh start and encourage me into contributing positively to the forom
• suchmoon, he was the user that single handedly ranked me up to full member with been my biggest merit fans, his meriting gave me another reason to improve on myself since the best meriter was keeping an eye on me.
• Hhampuz, the best campaign manager I have ever worked with, such a great guy. After working with him few days after I turned full member, there hasn't been an open slot that I'm interested in that haven't been mine considering I was quick and qualified for the position. His timing was so perfect that he pays me back them, first thing in the morning (just imagine waking up to a credit alert) that was how he made me feel on every payday morning such a wonderful guy.
• LFC_Bitcoin, he was the first user that trusted my judgement but now over 9+ users now trust my feedbacks, he included me on his custom trust list, made me a DT member for months without me not knowing until months later which then encourage me to continue hunting down the untrustworthy users on the forum, right now we encounter ourselves regularly on the gambling board and each time, his contributions are always interesting to interact with.
• My merit fans, i can't mention them all but they're the reason I'm here today (rank-wise). Some assisted me then left me along the way; Jet cash (he hate bold so won't put his name in bold lol), DdmrDdmr, The Pharmacist, Welsh etc i miss your meriting lol although thanks for helping me when i needed you guys the most.
• tk808, shout out to this guy, he was the reason why I picked interest in the alternative subboard since the board was lacking merit especially as his contributions weren't getting highlighted then I got motivated, applied for source and got appointed. He's such an asset to that particular board.
• Special shout out to; GOLD_official (current campaign manager for finding value in my posts and always accepting me each time I reapply to promote project. Fillippone, Heisenberg_Hunter & cabalism13, (for been my pals & motivators), DireWolfM14 (1st positive trust giver, thanks for trusting me (A Nigerian) with the loans, Upgrade00 (for always patronizing my currency exchange business), philipma1957 & TMAN (for always coming through for me and thank you for everyone that have assisted me one way or the other on the forum in 2019, thank you merit sources, moderators, spam & scam busters and Theymos/Satoshi. Season greetings to you all.

2019 was indeed a fruitful year for me and a wake up call to be more active in forum. I'm able to visualize some members here that really contributed to the benefit of the forum.

All Staff moderators clearly did a good job supervising their assigned sections. No need to mentioned their names.

Also, Theymos which really keep this forum neat and clean
and  always do fair judgement in many ways to keep discussion as appropriate as possible.

LoyceV, SuchMoon, The Pharmacist, DdmrDdmr for being nice and always put discussion on the same page and not bias on their opinion. Very worthy mentioning.

Also Tranthidungwho always input some update on the Meta section of useful graphs and statistics.

For tk808 who always there to oversee the Alternate Altcoin Discussion and giving useful info on this section. Also to CryptoprenuerBrainBoss for being active on this section too.

For Hhampuz,  yahoo62278 and CoolCryptovator for providing legit and good bounty campaigns.

And also for Fillippone giving this chance to share his thought on some members who help and contribute a lot on this forum.

Last but not the least Satoshi for being the sole reason why this forum become a good ground for knowledge about bitcoin.

There's a lot of people I admire in the forum.

outside our local, I have LoyceV, DarkStar_, yahoo62278 and Hhampuz ..

in our local... I admire the contribution of asu, harizen, inthelongrun, and mirakal

yahoo62278 and Hhampuz  are my inspiration to try my journey to campaign management.

First time doing this sort of thing don't judge me too hard plis  

Here's my short list:

• TryNinja: Like someone said earlier,he's very helpful and actually helped me recover once about 0.1BTC stuck on buggy Samourai Wallet.Thank you
• Halab: Very good moderator,keeping the french board clean and enjoyable.Thank you for your hard work.
• 1miau: Friendly and prompt, he assisted me during the process of flagging TerraGreen
• xtraelv:His history threads are so interesting and informative
• julerz12 and Untold: Both designed for me a free logo, julerz is a great campaign manager too!
• yahoo62278 : One of the best campaign managers in the forum,prompt and always tries to do what is right.

I was inspired by these two great campaign managers...

yahoo62278 and Hhampuz - for the huge numbers of their participants but still they could manage it and actually, I'm one of them.

@ LoyceV- for the trust list reviews
Of course, @theymos - who certainly maintaining the quality of the forum.

A lot of aspiring individuals here but I don't think I should need to mention everyone. They build their good reputation already even they aren't recognized by someone and that is the most important.

Did you forget someone who has taken us this far to find out about bitcoin and the bitcointalk.org forum?

I think Satoshi really is worth mentioning, because we are here with various ranking, differences of opinion, and because of that we also know something that we have never known before.

Yes, Satoshi Nakamoto

Not so much people for me to thank about. These people are genuinely hardworking and I highly appreciated their works, and passion.

Here's the list:
  

• yahoo62278 - the first manager I've been working with and all of it did go well.
• cabalism13 - on his passion of helping less fortunate people specially kids, he did work with sincerity.
• crwth - same as cabalism13 which made Bitcointalk Charity Program a successful program.
• Dabs - though he's not our local moderator anymore but he has been a good listener in our local. And as well to his Feed Some Children program though it is quite a long time ago but I still want to thank him for helping those children.
• Lastly to my friends who introduced me to this forum, highly appreciated pals!

P.S - Might be a lot of people helping out there... so thanks and continue helping those who are in need.

I gotta review the journey here. It was great experience for me joining on the forum; otherwise, I couldn't learn wide variety of technical stuffs on bitcoin & cryptocurrencies. I would like to thank everyone who helped me learning all these things.

Let me name the people who have helped me time to time with their experience & knowledge.

bob123- bob is a great member of the forum; always try to help people with his technical knowledge. At the beginning of my forum journey, I have learnt a lot from him. He used to point out my mistake (of course others as well).
BitCryptex- Another great user, helped me a lot when I was learning about Lightning Network.
LoyceV- Cool guy. Share merit everyone who deserve. I have been merited by him numerous times. He is very much helpful to the newbie.
Ddmrddmr- He had handed out the first merit here. Sometimes, it seems he used to hunt good quality post to merit.
TMAN- Very much generous in handing out merit. Gave me 43 once.
theymos- Very much responsive even though he is the lord admin. Once I had to PM him for some reason and he had answered that after 2 days probably (I thought he will never  )

And many more including TryNinja; because 

Just want to say thanks to krogothmanhattan and his Daily Free Raffle.

This person turned this free raffles as a daily work (dont forget that the coins is send worldwide for free). So far it is given away 431 coins, that means more than a year of daily raffle work 

Cant wait for krogothmanhattan to become legendary forum member. I'm sure that this day he/she will create something special for raffle.

I don't roam around in the forum a lot, so i can only admire these people in the forum.

yahoo62278 and Hhampuz for being the best campaign managers in the forum.

Also, I would like to thank stadus for creating this wonder thread. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.53440175

and Russlenat for https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/lending-section-here-mores-funds-available-wanted-borrowers-5142115

Dammit that’s what I wrote first 😂

in this forum I found many great people, at least have changed my mindset to be more enthusiastic and creative in this forum.  a lot of knowledge that I found from this forum.  maybe I want to say thank you

• dbshck which has been a source of merit for my good threads in the local forum.
• pandukelana2712 with bright ideas that motivate all members of the local forum.

But damn I’m on my phone so this post can get messy......

First of all it’s gonna be a long list but I have got so many positive moments coming from BTCT for this last year.....

VB1001: remembering his WO entrance pretty well, posted so nice things but as I remember good he had some difficulty in the beginning and thought some WO’s insulted him, what of-course wasn’t so, his help around the WO with knowledgeable post as with fun and HAT history and etc is maybe becoming one of the most reliable WO posters from the last year..... would love to meet this person as well IRL (soft person with a heart for animals, always a win-win kinda person)

Last of the V8’s: From the whole forum absolutely the best man with words and where and when to place them, if you didn’t meet this man IRL then you will never know which kinda character his all about, I do know and for me his a true gentleman I wanna stay connected with as long as possible (previously he helped me with some English, I just don’t know why that has stopped....—-> am I a lost *cause?)

HairyMaclairy: The only one I put my all in live saving on when it comes to TA and charts ... my unicorn.... a kind person as well, coming very lose after some wines, a person that’s always in for some fun moments

Kurious: One of the persons I met more as ones, broke bread with on several occasions and a man when sitting together I can only listen and learn not try to add something ..... very bright and extremely well structured person, if he plans something then please just follow and it can’t go wrong ...

P_Shep: Very old account but younger looking when I met him .... he’s the perfect person to have on the tip of a boat when punting and makes a lot more noise after a few drinks as when he’s sober

Globbo: I don’t know why but I think he’s one of the persons supported me the most and always has my back, he writes in weird sentences but they always fits the topic, I met with him and his fiancé both where very kind to me and invited me for whenever I’m in the country, damn I did lose in a game of pool/biljard..... Never will forgot the first line he said when I saw him.... “I’m clearly over dressed”

Gentlemand: Interesting character that I do loved for winning a game of mine, if he didn’t then I would have been sending to sgbett that’s something no BITCOINER would wanna do, also a guy talk in weird sentences for a non perfect English person but a very kind man I have seen him helping a lot of people, sending papers and stuff

600watt: the person I met with some other WO’s and a person that doesn’t matter to put some effort into traveling, he would do the distances to just meet with some friends, and as we have done, the persons that really had to travel for the first meet not knowing where to end is admirable THX

LFC_bitcoin: Sorry this name has to come in other letters, I could start writing but it will not stop, so gonna keep it short cause everyone knows we are real brothers, I don’t know If there is some one I text more with as with LFC, thanks for supporting me from the start and helping me around, also lucky we both have a GF that likes the other ones GF as well ......

Xhomerx10:Probably one of the most kind persons of heart from the entire forum, if someone needs somekind of help or whatever, xhomerx is always just a few letters away, THX for starting the HAT mania that just has its own place on this amazing forum, there is never been a trend as the HATs that I know of, amazing and I will never forget the help you gave me with the writing of my merit source application!!!

Boblawblaw: Amazing black gay guy just don’t think his from outter space but his like me a big fan of the dude and I think (know) his the first person that gave me merit, I think more as for he appreciated me as a person as it was for knowledge but I did like as a very fresh member how he always was around and gave me some nice talking, also I always like his bob and rick stories, never change your attitude!!!

Filippone: A kind person that creates good threads and overal a positive person, I like the moments when someone as him a determined person on the forum but still a bit fresh comes towards me PM’s me for some words or help/thinking while his better in every part of the forum as myself still I think I have helped him even he surely didn’t need my help, he’s one of the newer but reliable WO’s that creates the WO-hand sign

r0ach: For just showing me how not to be

Mitchell: Extremely helpful person, not a WO .... pity I would love to see him there sometimes maybe something for later, but for sure one of the best members on the forum that talks Dutch where I can ask help if I need some ....

Minerjones: Thanks for being a so trusted person, I have had some items stored at your place worth more as a few bucks and I never doubt that anything would happen, thanks for being so trustworthy and for inviting me to the Amsterscam meet up where I did meet a lot of fine collectible members And pity I missed you on that meet, sorry I was a bit late

Bitcoinpenny: Same as minerjones thx for being so trustworthy  and helpful, we did have a nice raffle thx for organising as you did....

AT101ET: Gentlemen younger person that I met and helped me out with a RL deal and probably busy on our next one, very very trustworthy

Chronicksky,micromen,minifrij,vizique,actmyname,yogg, Hhampuz and some other collectibles I regret I didn’t mention: But I have met some IRL and played alcohol/card games with no more need to say, just thanks for inviting me in some places and I just have seen where the collectibles group is all about, I think I have never witnessed the charity/generosity as I have seen from you guys especially with the advent stuff

Bitserve,d_eddie,jojo69,JJG,lambieslayer,cryptotourist, jimbofromtoronto,elwar,PAASHAAS,JSRAW,Hueristic,sheenshane,nuthilda,LoyceV,biodom,lightfoot,AlcoHoDL,Phil_S,ivomm,ludwigvon,Icygreen,bitconaire ..... just all of you awesome WO’s that are keeping the WO colorful  and a part of BTC history!!!!!

Sorry, have to separated thank theymos as well! I can imagine he’s a guy with tons of PM’s and still he always responded on those I have send him and helped me out, made me a merit source etc THX!!!

• DarkStar_, cabalism13, crwth - similar reasons with sheenshane
• Baofeng, asu, finaleshot2016, Darker45, inthelongrun, mjglqw, GreatArkansas - we've had some good discussions in our local board the last few months. I also learned from their posts.
• tk808, CryptopreneurBrainboss - for their valuable contributions in the Altcoins board

You missed the "check the links you've posted" habit


This is all I have to say:
Great mentality! I can't read most of your posts, but you seem to be a decent poster and I don't think you should be held back by Merit.

Oooooooor super robot.....

However, I like LoyceV contribution more. His loyce.club website is very informative and very useful. I try to follow his posts. Many others have also made many contributions this year. Many thanks to everyone for contributing.

Happy New year all.
