Bitcoin Forum

Hi, guys, this thread is meant to enlighten newbies on some high-ranking members of the forum to look up to as mentors and this time the searchlight is on DdmrDdmr and I will go on to tell you why I have chosen this member as a mentor worthy to emulate on this forum.
1:DdmrDdmr can be said to be a time machine that is active almost 24 hours on the forum responding accurately to each topic of discussion.
2: DdmrDdmr always offers guidance and help to new members who do not have accurate knowledge but want to learn.
These qualities and many more have made the user become one of the forum's most cherished legendary members who have contributed positively to both members and the forum as a community.
What do you think about DdmrDdmr

Without been biased you see, DdmrDdmr has been one of the best have observed and noticed when it come to giving guidelines.
A good example like you have said, every one needs one like you, I see people here using offensive and aggressive words to a newbie, what if that newbie is indeed a newbie ?
What if they don't have alt accounts ?
How do a newbie knows he)her is writing shit post ?
A big thanks, you're such a big role model.
Hugs and do have a juicy and spicy Christmas ahead...xxx.
I don't wan talk loads.

The qualities you mentioned aren't unique to DdmrDdmr. OGs generally offer guidance to new/old members. Notwithstanding DdmrDdmr is a legend. Ratimov is another member who is almost always online all hours of the day. I don't know how they do it but these guys have committed to the forum. My hero would be Ratimov. He's a helper of newbies and is a good writer. His compendium guides are really helpful.
I think you should rename your title to "heroes of bitcointalk'

Found DdmrDdmr's alt account. jk.

DdmrDdmr was kinda "late" compared to the OGs(registered January 2018), but if my memory serves me right, he was one of the few perfect examples back then on how you don't need to have a high rank to receive merits.

I know very well that this community is made of people of reputation members and everyone is entitled to choose a preferable person as mentor base on the methods the person communication in the community, we have numerous members who are doing absolutely well for the community, i know vividly that DdmrDdmr can never be excepted in any way of calculating the statistics of good character and people that created innovations threads that is worthy to emulate or inspired people to the community, so from my perspective DdmrDdmr is worthy to be emulate.

when i was coming up i registered so many people as my mentor in my diary, but when i seen that we have different species of composition of text then i began to reduce my likeness from people.

That's because he is not human. He is a bot:

[FUN] Is DdmrDdmr even human? (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5117342.0)

As for mentors, I see he has not been mentioned, personally I would choose LoyceV. I doubt I will ever be 50% as helpful as he is to this forum, but since he helped me rank up, I have become a better forum member, he has many helpful threads to learn so much about Bitcoin and about the forum. I take into great consideration the things he says (which is not to say I agree with what he says 100% of the time).

Advising the newbies to learn how to post like legendary members is a better idea to follow. Going through the post of their mentors, learning how the post and arranging their words will be of help to them. The low ranked up aim to rank up someday but they don't know how to go about it due to how they post. No newbie wants to remain as a newbie for so long

I think he is a great forum member and one of the asset here. He helps everyone to gain such knowledge and even guide to such wrong doings. He always patience with some newbies and even helpful to those aspiring to be high rank members.

Actually I am super glad when I received merits from him cause you can tell that he likes what you posted or responsded. That's something that can be called appreciation. I want newbies to follow footstep of users like ddmrddmr.

Well said. And even though I have more than enough merit, and I'm "older" (in the forum) than he is, I also feel the same about the merit from him.
Still, I have a feeling that OP may have been hunting for a bit of merit here...

I know it's good to choose whom ever that supports you for better development or to accelerate to the community but if you aske me personally to select a mentor, i will not select base on a specific person that made me to get to another position, i consider the the aggregates of a thread created by you that is helpful to the community generally, from my own definition of mentorship, its simply means someone who is directional and correct you for good work, or someone who is providing a solution to an existing problem.

I’d say that he spends too much time on the forum. I mean, hasn’t he got anything better to do with his time? Not that I personally consider he knows that much really, although he does seem to be rather approachable and dedicated. In line with @mk4’s (jk) comment, how many Alts must he have? Does he really look like this (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4719796.msg42617453#msg42617453) ? (scroll down linked post). Enough …

Anyhow, I agree with some of the comments: it would probably be better to shift the focus on to a collective of people rather than a monolithic figure. An interesting prior exercise on the forum to this extent was this one:

 🏆 Bitcointalk Community Awards [Voting 2020]  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5284749.0)
 🏆 Bitcointalk Community Awards [Results of the Year + Quiz]  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5301470.0)

Plenty of interesting profiles there to checkout …

I won't call myself an OG even though I registered on January 2018. That time there's no merit system until a few days later, the merit system is implemented on the forum but I ranked up from 0 merits up to what I got right now. DdmrDdmr did quite a good job compared to me where DdmrDdmr made a lot of contribution so I would say DdmrDdmr is a good example to newbies or a good role model even for me.

I bet, that's the most plausible jocular explanation for that. I've often wondered how some of these members find ample time to respond and attend to forum functions and questions promptly. Could it be real life boredom that drives them deeper into this forum? I wouldn't be able to stand such duration of hours staring at a screen. It surely will make my head spin. Another great and always available user is LoyceV as you rightly pointed out. And LoyceV is almost certain to have answers to issues raised here whenever such catch ... (not certain of the user's sex) fancy. These users are responsive and friendly to interact with. I sincerely hope they continue to be humane and not one day turn monsters a few good ones turned to.

He is one of the active members who continue to survey the forum for good posts and has some comprehensive knowledge about the internet and blockchain. his topics are truly gold and you rarely see someone who possesses both knowledge and good community works. If you wanted to further expand your knowledge about the blockchain and any crypto-related matters, you can count on his topics, the guy is just amazing and such a blessing for him to be here in this community.

Haha this is funny, if true it means he seems to be on the 24-hour forum for 7 days and he's like an exchange because he's never been rested.
My knowledge about he, he has credibility in doing posts, he can also be your role model if you want to learn to make useful posts or topics. But I think there are a lot of other members as well who have abilities like him. Especially for global forums, a lot of seniors here have set an indirect example for me and all of us.

It is always nice for a newbie to enter this space without hearing any praises of a high ranking member from anyone.
When a sincere Newbie is left in this forum, in less that two months he will understand all by himself.

Below is a quote from a thread I created when I was a member rank
A thankful Heart❤ (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5353181.msg57636690#msg57636690)
I entered this forum a complete novice and newbie but I was able to on my own take note of these few users.
The above users are still contributing for the growth of newbies and the forum at large, except for @Rath whom I have not encountered anywhere recently.

No matter how careful I was, I could not capture @Ratimov. It was when I became a full member that I knew @Ratimov is a lover of lower ranking members.
I discovered this after I stumbled on his thread. Beginners & Help Encyclopedia [UPD: +Electrum Board] (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5364418.msg58120908#msg58120908). I was much amazed at this topic, the thoughtfulness, perseverance, research and time committed to makung that topic. I had to journey through his profile and discovered he is a big asset to the forum.
Again, I don't know why it took me so long to discover a user called @o_e_l_e_o, he is a maximum +ve to the forum. I know I am yet to discover more.

@DdmrDdmr is a Humanoid-bot (I don't know if such a word exists in any contemporary English lexicon)
He is a demi-omnipresent in the forum;
He is an even distributor of merit;
He is among the few who do not allow the forum factors such as cartelism, friendship or rank bewilder their judgement.
Worthy to be mentioned in this category are; @LoyceV and @The Pharmacist

DdmrDdmr is a good mentor indeed, always there to take new members in the right parts.  He is always to teach and correct errors in the best way. He doesn't not bully any member unlike some high rank members we have in the forum.

Not all legendary member were actually real legendary since merit system implemented on 2018, before that there's no merit as requirement to rank up... so anyone can shitpost and only active to get 14 activity per 2 weeks. Actually a newbies could made a better post than legendary member, good post doesn't depends on the rank.

---

No doubt DdmrDdmr is active in this board and his local, if this board need a new moderator I'll vote him.

Flattering as that sounds, I would never put myself on top of such a list. I simply lack the technical know-how, coding abilities, and extensive background knowledge of different kinds of Bitcoin-related processes. I think you missed several of those who have those qualities and can be found posting in the technical sub-boards. But anyways, thanks for the mention!

LoyceV shouldn't be on that list either. You are supposed to put him on a separate cyborg and AI intelligence kind of list. Not one for humans. :P
Not sure what is going on with Ognasty, but he seems quite bitter to me considering some of the posts I have seen him make.
You can come across Rath_'s posts in the Bitcoin technical boards.

Everyone on this list is a great forum member, but I just decided to place the watch light on DdmrDdmr at this time. Subsequently, we are analyzing other members on the list and even outside the list.

@Pmalek, no one sing his praises. Even the list I quoted above was made months ago, when I was still a novice in this forum. Yet I was able to notice how you answered newbies questions without chastising them.
How you have managed a thread that helps lower ranking members earn merits by solving riddles. How about your impactful topics as "Will new forum software..., why you will leave bitcointalk..., etc.
I noticed you as an asset to the forum users, no because of technical know how or coding abilities.
How about @The Pharmacist, he isn't much technically inclined but always a hit in all his comments and judgements.
Enjoy your day, you are a a great personality in this space 8)

I know what you are saying, but it will surprise you that I love him more for his accurate judgements and not his skills.
He is a rooted critical thinker and a great analyst. Yes, a solution provider  ;D

I really don't know why you are saying that DdmrDdmr is one of your best mentors right now on the forum while you never sent him a single merit after he provided enough useful posts for you.
Well maybe that's your right because the merit system isn't moderated, but I honestly think you're in fashion to have DdmrDdmr's hand send you another merit.

I don't think you're sincere enough to make this thread without expecting someone to send you merit, but you're right about DdmrDdmr.
I admit it even though I'm not much involved in the discussion here.

DdmrDdmr is the third ninja based on the results of last year's voting initiated by icopress (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5301470.0). So I think we actually know him a lot better than just a user guiding newbie on this forum. In many ways I think DdmrDdmr is a user who can be called a gem on this forum, and honestly that's flattery for him from me.

I don't know why you think so, but sometime your assumption are not to blame in certain circumstances. Beginners are expected to be able to read more than praising the quality of other users just because of merit "maybe/ not", of course there is nothing wrong but by reading a lot they can gain knowledge that is more than just agreeing with the opinion of other users.

It must be admitted that DdmrDdmr is one of the most active Legendary members in the BTT forum. So far, his contribution has been pretty good. In addition to the positive values ​​you mentioned above, DdmrDdmr is also one of the Merit sources that has sent 16152 merits to 514 profile.

https://i.ibb.co/rQ1964T/IMG-20211221-012351.jpg

But you don't forget. DdmrDdmr is not alone here. Other members also have very outstanding contributions in this forum. Their presence gives a beautiful color to other users, especially Newbie who is still in the learning stage.

Even though he has been inactive for a long time, Lauda (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=101872) is also the best mentor, You can see some of Lauda pinned works above.
And there are many other members who can be used as mentors who are worthy of being an example.

The @Lauda is very resourceful in the forum. Though I have never come across him or his comments in any discussion, but I do read some of his pinned threads in the boards. I used to think that maybe he is an administrator or a moderator, but if he isn't any of the above and puts in such level of efforts. He is great.

There are so many great members on this list and there are many more who are not on it, but of cause, I will not expect you to have come across every member or to have remembered them all at the time. I will honestly (not modestly) say that I will not put myself besides most of the members, but I'm also honored when recognized by other forum members.
As long as you are putting in effort to contribute, then you are a positive for the forum,

I think everyone have the right to choose anybody as a mentor, but in the community their is no rules and regulations that stipulates that someone will have a mentor, having it is a personal conceptions or decisions, DdmrDdmr while people have choosing him or emphasising on him always is because of his system of awarding merit. from my environmental understanding of his kinds of merit. he always support the newbies for Merit and no beginner that will not like to be cool with him because of his support.

I was late to reply to this, but I think it is still worth it if I post on this thread. DdmrDdmr is a good forum member, good merit source. Not only active on Spanish local board but also on English boards. He is one of the reputed members that is always responding to personal messages.

Could you believe I can do this on my device using my broswer? Also this is strictly about merit sending and does not include all other activities, like posting.

I'm not saying having a mentor is wrong, but instead of expecting a reward by flattering a mentor isn't it more for us to further improve the quality of our posts to get merit? I also see that DdmrDdmr really supports members who are really serious about raising their rank and I really salute that, but I think that instead of continuing to praise the mentor, wouldn't it be better if we imitate and try to be like the mentor and can even become better than the people we make mentors.

Maybe you mean merit?
This forum gives everyone free speech (within reasonable) and I don't think there's anything wrong with praise or flattery because everyone has the right to do so to certain users they think they deserve. Also I don't think expecting someone to merit you for making constructive and useful posts is wrong, but beg merit is not the right way for you to do it because a lot of people don't like it. You can still expect merit on merit source with minimal effort if you previously thought that some of your good posts weren't getting the merit they deserve, so just report your quality posts in the thread provided.

[self-moderated] Report unmerited good posts to Merit Source (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5093271.0)

Don't ever be a copycat or try to be someone else to get something you want, but start learning from other people's experience for something you think is important and that's much better in my opinion. I am also flattered by DdmrDdmr's abilities and knowledge, but I will not try to be like him but I will try to learn a little more to achieve something I want even though in the end we will never be the same. Remember that we each have our share, be yourself.

Even he is also busy with newbies on 'beginners and help' but with the ones that have good posting history which is what is acceptable on this forum.

Every member here has the right to get merit for the contributions they make in quality posts, so we don't need to be surprised why DdmrDdmr made as a mentor by many members here, because he really helps a lot of members who deserve to rank up, and we can see his generosity in giving merit to anyone he deems worthy to receive.

That's probably true, and that's why you get 2 merit DU18?

I think DU18 needs to review more of your posts if indeed merit are credited for your contributions to the forum before he send 2 merit for you. That's much better than he wants to help you qualify to join the campaign.

https://i.ibb.co/TkTYWbw/screenshoot.png

Yes you are right there DdmrDdmr is one of that legendary members who contributed well in the forum and he has done many things and helped everyone here in the forum. And he is also a generous giver in terms of merits.
But he is not alone the user what you've mentioned is the example of those best contributors in this community but there's more user who quite contributing well in this forum I don't want to mention them 1 by 1 cause it takes time.

Funny! I have tried to evaluate his method of issuing merits. It seems semi-automated. I wanted to question how it is achieved. But giving a critical attention to each post merited by him, you will see quality.
He doesn't merit shitpost no matter the speed of his merits.
Instead of meriting a substandard post, he'll rather visit old post he once merited and add to them.

That wasn't my post, it's for another person, not me. Yes, he merits only quality posts, it's very obvious.

I noticed that this community people is now selecting some group of as a superior, which but both of us know vividly that we have different caliber's of people with different perspectives and initiative to the community that is doing absolutely well, i agree on the statement of upgrade, we have other potential members who are hidden, the list analysis is not the end of credible and potential members in the community, from my observation and perspective.

Information:
The above list is not a list of credible users of the forum;
It is not also the list of most contributors;
Neither is it of generous merit givers.
Again, it is unofficial.
It is a personal list during my early days in the forum.
The people their names appeared helped me by a way of motivation, knowingly and unknowingly to them, by a way of meriting my posts, my a way of answering my questions and guiding me towards the right path.
So, I made the post then, thanking them.
I had to quote the thread when I discovered that @DdmrDdmr who is the subject of this thread also appeared on my thread then as a newcomer.

I read recently if how he was tryna help a someone here in the forum against the major sin in the forum plagiarism.
Seeing that was so sweet, guess I wasn't that observant.
I think newbie's need more of this.
