Topic: QS - 10 years on the forum - page 3. (Read 971 times)

I see your honesty has not changed.  :/     You wrote many things you knew were not true, based on the politics at the time.

After I was promised help, I removed trust on you and left the forum.  (The offer of help was a lie so I came back).  I received PMs warning me against you.  Now I see they were correct- you are the same dishonest thief you were ten years ago. 

I honestly thought about you a few months ago (nothing weird don’t worry ). I saw your username on BPIP or something and wondered where you’d gone.

10 years is a hell of a long time, I’m not too far behind you on the 10 year anniversary, September 2014 I joined.

Any way, congratulations on the 10 year milestone and I hope you’re OK. Maybe stick around, the next 18 months should be a really fun time for HODLERS old and new.

It's good to see you around again QS. Time goes by really fast.
I hope you are in good mental health. Money can be lost and earned again, but health is more important than anything else. The more time goes by, the more I realize that. Enjoy your time.

If there is a badge for "decade" if would be getting one in few days.

Good to see you back QS

It can be that, or just nostalgia. It is quite a milestone after all...
I've had thoughts to make such a thread when my account became 10 yo, but I didn't.


My account is just a little bit older than that: it's from February
And you know what? I wish everybody just do well, no matter they've joined in 2014 or in all the other years!


I am sure the list can be a lot longer, but I don't want to go on that route, since it can easily replace nostalgia with regrets, although I like to believe (no matter it's the reality or not) that most of those who have left just got rich and now they're busy drinking margaritas.

Wow, I remember this topic was self-moderated, how did you do it?

Congratulations,10 years is not an easy matter, especially since most of those interested in the forum lose their enthusiasm after 2 halvings, or an average of 8 years. The forum has changed a lot since I joined.

Yeah, it is true that we are probably just different nicknames in this forum, and only a few members have had the opportunity to meet one another in real life. However, i think 10 years and longer is a very long time to stay in an online forum, and it is worth creating a thread for such a milestone. Well done QS, i also hope you are doing well.

Have seen you after a long time. Hey QS!
You missed TMAN on the list.

I've never really understood this kind of threads, I guess it's because we all like to feel important, but not being here anything more than a nickname I understand it even less. And to top it off, I don't know the OP or his history but with his 11 red tags and an active flag against him puzzles me even more.

A month ago it was 10 years since I participated in this forum. It's a bit unbelievable that I got here before the two of you, I always considered you as the basic furniture of this forum.

Good to see you admit that, even with the qualification tacked onto the end of it.  

Honestly, it's hard to believe that you and I joined the forum less than a year apart, because to me it seems like you've been a member for way, wa-ay longer than I have.  That could be because you were involved in some drama when I was a lurker in 2014 (though I'm not sure about that), or it could just be warped perception that happens after a decade of seeing someone's posts.  


Wow, there are some names in that list I haven't thought of in a very long time, and I didn't realize DarkStar_ had left the forum, so that's something I just learned.  A lot of those members had strong presences here and established reputations, and I think they also added to the spiciness bitcointalk used to have some years ago, which for the most part is gone.  I always wonder what's happened to a member who's disappeared unexpectedly (like TMAN and Spoetnik and a few others I can't recall off the top of my head), and that was the case with you as well.  I think I asked the question offhandedly in a post not too long ago, so at least now I know.

By the way, if you wanted replies you probably shouldn't have made this thread self-moderated.  Just saying.

Dedicating almost a decade to the forum is not an easy task. You have been part of the people who contributed to the development of this platform and I respect you for that. Life is filled with ups and downs that sometimes turn an enjoyable adventure into a challenging one. We might not be able to change our past but we can still make the future beautiful by correcting and learning from our past mistakes. New members like us have a lot to learn from your wealth of experience and I just hope some members like you will still dedicate more time to the forum. However, I wish you the best in your other endeavors outside the forum and also wish you a happy Decennial celebration in advance.

Hi everyone,

In about two months, I will have been on the forum for 10 years. I have not been able to spend much time on the forum recently, certainly nowhere near as much time as I have in the past, and I am not sure I would remember to visit on my anniversary, so I figured I would create a thread today.

Time sure does fly when you are having fun. It is hard to believe it was 10 years ago when I first joined the forum. It is an understatement to say that a lot has changed over the years. A lot of people have lost their reputation they spent years building up, sometimes for good reason, often times not. A handful of people have been arrested for reasons related to their involvement in their Bitcoin-related activities. Sadly, some of the forum members I had the opportunity to get to know and talk to have died. I honestly cried when I saw that o_e_l_e_o had locked his goodbye/farewell thread.

Sadly, many seem to have actually left the forum, despite that they say that no one really leaves. BadBear, tomatocage, shorena, Blazr, escrow.ms, DarkStar, monbux, redsn0w, devthedev, Lauda, Dogedigital, blazed, MadZ, Muhammed Zakir, marcotheminer, xetsr, dogie, Vod seems to have left, and somewhat recently returned. There are others I have forgotten. If you have left, and happen to read this, maybe you can stop by to say hello, lol.

It is sad to see someone who was last active in 2020. The world was turned upside-down due to covid.

I certainly have made mistakes during my time on the forum. I can say however that my North Star has always been what I believed to be right at the time.

Anyway, I hope that everyone is doing well.
