Well coincidence, fillippone has wrote how's bitcoin work on here  5 Resources to teach Average Joe about Bitcoin
So you can learn too there.

Helping people by create useful thread/reply would be a best way to earn merit

I am motivated by what you wrote here and I would learn more about bitcoin so I can be really helpful to people who needs help on the platform because that is one thing I noticed helped you to rank up fast.

If you want to know a little more about me, you can read my interview here:

Plenty of other good interviews to look at.

This is actually brilliant, firstly doing all the research and compiling data and than using it to earn merit to ultimately create a guide for beginners and earn merit on it for the informative aspect of it! Well played man

WOW! I was amazed with the way you managed to monitored the dates when all your merits had given. The huge amounts of merits that you have right now are quite overwhelming. And it only showed how useful your ideas here in the forum and how huge you contributed along with your crypto journey. I was inspired with your brilliant mind. Congratulations! 

Just realising you have a lot to learn is a good start.
Bitcoin is so vast you surely can find your own way down the rabbit hole.

I suggest you to read this thread:

5 Resources to teach Average Joe about Bitcoin

There you will find so many resources to inspire you and find your own path into the bitcoin knowledge!

Maybe I'm late but congratulations to you. Sorry, it looks like the tread has been inactive for a long time, but hopefully my comment is not deleted. It seems I need to learn from you about motivation and knowledge about this forum. Several months I could not be much active in this forum. At the moment I don't seem to have any thoughts of making a new topic and even commenting I need to think about it. My mind is like a dead end.

Being helpful enough to other members by just giving friendly or professional advice, or post something that catches the interest of the community would give us more merits. Quality posts really matter in this forum. At first, I was pissed off with the merit system because I could have been a Hero member by then.

After that, I finally understand why because the forum needs to be cleaned from low quality and spammy posters only just to get that rank. But for me, merit is just a bonus. What really matters for me is that helping others by giving them great advice satisfies me enough. Not in a rush to rank up here. I’m just happy on what I’ve been doing here, to keep contributing quality information and advice to the Bitcointalk community.

Congratulations to you man! You deserve it! Newbies, beginners and inexperienced members are going to learn a lot from this thread alone. Cheers!

The discussion has been getting away from OP. LOL

Achievement. Is considered as the fruit to hard labor. It can speak itself how one was able to manage despite of needs that arises during the making. For me, it will not be easy for OP it was still not easy but manage to get that achievement.

And for this, I would like to congratulate OP, It seems that the description of you as nerd, doctorate and genius fits to describe you.

You too are qualified already to become legendary and just a little approve from the admin then everything will going to change especially on your rank.

HERO member for now Legendary Later! Congratulations!

Hey mate, no, please don't get me wrong when I mentioned your comment here as it was just used as an example to explain in the next part of that same comment where Mpamaegbu related us in the same way, but seriously speaking, I never took that comment seriously hehe. I've got a very soft side and only get harder when I believe something's wrong from my point of view (yours was never in that "wrong" category" as I knew it was just for fun  ). After all, we all should have some fun loving moments from time to time, I never needed any explanation from you seriously, I know you didn't mean it.

I did post the below message as a kind of light hearted/fun gesture/response, but I pulled it back (deleted it) after I had posted it (maybe within about a minute or two after I had posted it) because I thought that I may have gone a bit too far in my own making light (or funzies) out of the mini-drama situation.  

Personally, I don't mind a bit of a back and forth battle of ideas and differences of opinions regarding substantive ideas or even different opinions about the intentions and past practices of other members, here and there.  Sometimes we can learn from those kinds of vigorous back and forth battles, but sometimes the tone and the intentions might get lost within the posts, and some members do have more troubles with English, too... or even making sure that they put reasonable disclaimers in their posts from time to time - but the odds are quite high that peeps are going to get misunderstood from time to time when we are dealing with written format (that we might not have if we were meeting at a table at a bar - or maybe the misunderstandings would be different if we were at a bar because we might each be trying to impress/or pick up on the waitress.. and then get in a fight over that).... but in the end, I believe that it is more than o.k. to even vigorously disagree with other members without having to take matters too personally.


By the way, to me, having fun with the "#nohomo" disclaimer is not necessarily meant to be taken literally or even necessary to assign genders to it or even taking any kind of position in regards to homosexuality.  It is just maybe another way of attempting to light-heartedly say that "I am not getting too emotionally attached to you" in regard to the back and forth (or what I had just said in my post).

Hehe, I got a message by TryNinja's telegram bot that JayJuanGee posted that I didn't disclaim the #nohomo and so, he presumed that I meant that #withhomo (I believe that he deleted his comment after seeing my response on that #nohomo already given).

Neh, I'm not a homo, man. I'm a father of a lovely daughter, have the love of my life as my wife. This explanation was not meant to be given but became necessary when people point fingers and question our friendship hehe. Don't get offended, I said everything in a peaceful, yet meaningful manner.      
It's true that I love each and every user here (except scammers, spammers) because they are good human beings, doesn't mean we're all homos haha.

Oh! You two already had the marriage worked out via pm without a priest 😘. Great one...

Much appreciated, that was my intention indeed to shed some light and make a distinction between altcoin BM's and reputable BM's as I thought that @Stedsm didn't fully understand what you were aiming at and he thought I didn't understand something he meant  hehe

Anyway no harm done, we all had good intentions, just didn't use clear enough phrasing and not enough specific words when expressing our thoughts

@Stedsm and I sorted it all out in only 1 PM and we are cool and are aware that nobody had no ill intent

Happy Saturday to both of you guys 

I figure your telegram bot gave you the recognition you deserve, if you do something which is helpful to the forum you will be recognized (and receive merits).

Thanks CryptoViking for your ease of understanding of my comment. Stedsm, I also understand your perspective on the issue. However, I was strictly thinking of managers who are only involved in managing bounties. Perhaps I should have used the word "few or some" as prefix to make a case for exceptional bounty managers therein (though I have yet to find any.) Going forward, I don't think anyone will be right to refer to Yahoo or Hhampuz as Bounty Managers (even if they may have managed one or two bounties in the past). Most of us here know them as reputable BTC-paying Signature managers and we can't take that away from them. It didn't even cross my mind that anyone would tag them as BMs.

Now guys, let's move on. There is no point quarrelling over that 👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨

No, but it became quite important to me to make you know that these 2 managers, at some point of time, have managed altcoin campaigns and both do manage such campaigns from time to time.



Still got me wrong, not the topic but that specific part of the topic.


Gotcha.


Even I was not, and am not interested in flooding this thread with some nonsensical debate which will derail the motive of this thread, really doesn't want that. If I made you feel offended by any means, sorry about that dude. I just wanted to make my point clear, no offense.

And sorry @fillippone for this debate, this one's my last comment of that particular topic and I won't write here anything unless it's of any use to this thread (but not this topic, for sure).

Ok, seems I hit the nerve lol

Obviously, this topic is not as important to me as it is to you, but that is ok

He said BM's in both cases in general, he did not say all BM's, and I mentioned that in my response.  Also I know that they do manage some altcoin projects, but most of their work is related to BTC and I'm pretty sure that there is not many people on this forum that would consider neither of them as an altocoin bounty managers, like some other managers that deal with altcoins almost exclusively.

I though that was pretty obvious, at least it is to me.

And I'm not interested in dragging this in @fillippone post, or anywhere else. If you feel attacked by my response, that is up to you and I'm okay with that. You are right if you look it at it from your angle, as I'm also right from my angle.I have nothing personal or ego related involved in this.

Cheers

Is there such thing of a third party that would rate the quality of altcoins?  That space that is kind of the wild wild west could benefit from a third party.   Something that would both encourage quality, and also act to sort out low quality / scams from the projects that have real merit behind them.  Maybe that exists.  Maybe that is this forum?

Not needed, seriously not needed after reading your whole comment, you woke up a sleeping tiger. So be it.


Read and check my comment very carefully (and yeah, with open eyes of course), I gave those 2 as an example. Mpamaegbu said altcoin board is full of spam, okay I accepted it. But, when he accused all the BMs not focusing on quality and rather quantity (as he didn't add "few" before BMs in his comment), I wanted to chime in and let everyone know that not ^all BMs^ look for quantity alone (and I'm not targeting anyone while responding to this guy's comment). Now, for your general knowledge, I was aware of one of the altcoin campaigns managed by Yahoo named Justdatingcoin, do search for it and you will know. About Hhampuz? Really? He doesn't manage bounties and only manages BTC campaigns alone? You need to scratch your head when you say that comment in front of me. I know each and every manager here very carefully and I know their works too, don't even argue about this thing with me. No offense but you truly don't know what you're talking about. Go and check altcoins board, you'll definitely find a few campaigns by Hhampuz. Maybe not currently active, but not too old to find.
