"if you want to go fast,go alone. If you want to go far, go together".

Congratulatory letter to myself

N/B: I'm not writing this to earn merit, but to show newbies to be patient and hardworking

I have a story similar to your, starting with a pesky poster that only posts thing that have no value when I am a newbie in the forum.

As you mention yourself, you’ve undergone some clean-up in your posting history at some point, deleting some posts you are not in line with anymore. I’ve seen other forum members do this at some point, and generally it happens when one reached a certain "forum/crypto maturity" that enables on to see things in a different way as when they started off.

That’s probably a good thing, and whilst I did not favour it some time back, I do get that it may be fitting over time, leaving a historical imprint more in line with how one has moved on to being (I just has a laugh looking over some of my first posts, and do not stand by some opinions I had back then).

I think it's a nice poem so hopefully every time you rank up, you'll make one for us,

This is really amazing, writing of poems is just a talent I have. I think I inherited it from my grandpa, never knew so many would get excited over the poem, let me assure you, every rank up deserve a good poem from me.

Used that talent in creating funny and enjoyable poems. Some here would probably enjoyed it. Just wait in time, to rank up.

Your poem is interesting to read (you know reading a poem is different from a text) and i also like the rhyming pattern you employed on the last word of every verse, it's not easy to write poems or even to understand them; I know that because I've taken a course on poetry in the university and it's always difficult to decipher what the poet or the poet persona is trying to say. Good thing your own poem is not difficult for us to understand, congratulations.
It's always good to write poems, but imo I'd advice op to write poems prolly only on special occasions (rank up, halving or any other crypto events). If OP decides to make most of his posts poems, users will definitely get bored of it and the threads could then even start getting moved to off-topic board by mods.

That was a good content if I have merit I will give you some merit because of this kind of effort now you can use those motivations to keep up because from having low merit you can now achieve na 30 merits you have just make a hard work you can now spend all of your time to make a full member rank which is coming close just keep it up also don't forgot to look back to the people who give you motivation as you mentioned and recently the people give merits because this is full respect and encourage you to make good quality content.

Congratulations to you, Lordhermes! :)
This is a very creative way of expressing your gratitude towards the result of your hard work, and it's not silly at all.

Very nice poem,  thank you 😀
You are right,  we are here community,  group of people with similar goals and ideal.
If we focus on others,  how to help and support them, and not just on ourselves,  we can accomplish much more.
I'm happy you realized it.

PS: While you recieve the merits, don't hoard them as there's no benefits in doing so instead reward deserving post as you come across them on the forum.

I would have written a long story, long complicated content, somehow would be tiring to read, so I thought of a short way to express the deep excellency of my bitcointalk journey.
Now I know my poem wasn't silly at all, bless up Buddy.

Congratulatory poem to myself

Writing this piece for self congratulations.
I and Mr. Smith doing some jubilations.
Like receiving palliatives to all Nations.
That in future i may build mansions.
Gradually in the land of Washington.

Thanks for reading the silly poem from me, it was written for my newly member rank here, after a very long journey to this point. Just like African proverb says "if you want to go fast,go alone. If you want to go far, go together". Couldn't do it myself but with members here,  I landed here via my role models, my mentors, @LoyceV, @Jackg, @CryptopreneurBrainboss,  @DdmrDdmr, those I looked up to in the forum and many others. I kept following them, studying their posts, and I'm kinda good today. I have been patient just like Patience whose patient dog eats the fattest bone. The only way to go forward is to be patient and hardworking.

I have always looked up to those wearing avatar and signatures, today I'm participating in campaign, I would have pasted my threads here just as others did but I feel my threads aren't good enough. I'm trying the best I could to help the community. Love you all.
Congratulations to myself 🎊

N/B: I didn't write this poem to earn merit, but to inspire newbies to learn from my bticointalk journey.

"if you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together".

Nice masterpiece mate, I also want to congratulate you on reaching a full member rank even though it is already too late.
I admire this quotation, this is true and it always happens to me in my real life, if you want to achieve something urgently then you should work alone, some people around you won't help you with that, they may become disturbance so worm alone, it will make you have peace of mind and work with all your skills and knowledge but if you want to achieve more then you should work with other people, ask for some help from your family and friends, a simple motivation will help a lot. Things may get better if you have someone to help you, they may also give more ideas than what you think, this also is applicable if you want to go fast, which is two heads are better than one. Those people that may help you are the members of this forum, there are many active members here who are creating and sharing their useful knowledge that can help each of us to achieve something. The more knowledge we have then the more things we can go.

We may also add some efforts and time to doing something, it will help us to achieve the things we want. There is a common quotation that we usually heard "Patience is the key", there are always the right time for each and everyone but we can make it earlier once you are a hardworking person.
