Title: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: LoyceV on February 26, 2020, 08:15:44 PM LFC_Bitcoin's topic (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5228572.0) reminded me I have something to celebrate too: Today, I turned 5 years old on Bitcointalk!
I joined Bitcointalk just shortly after I "started with Bitcoin". For privacy reasons, I used a random generator to create a name: Loyce Valenzuela! I only found out it's a girl's name much later, but by then it had grown on me already. "Valenzuela" rolls off the tongue nicely. I never imagined I'd still be using the same name 5 years later. In my early days, I even missed several "2 weeks Activity periods" on Bitcointalk, that's how inactive I was. How things have changed :D I've been a Mod on Rollin.io until the site shut down. That's where I grew my thick skin (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5226451.msg53857537#msg53857537). And, according to some, a pony tail :D Compared to Rollin's Chatter box, Bitcointalk is filled with Saints. After Rollin shut down, i started spending more time on Bitcointalk. I can't deny Merit has been good for me, but I also know I'm spending more time here than I probably should. I appreciate that most of the community values my contributions, thanks for that :) I often feel honored for being mentioned (http://loyce.club/notifications/459836.html) on local boards which I can't even read. My Trust list viewer (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5102296.0) is still my proudest work, and it's often used to prove certain points (good or bad). I try to remain neutral (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5191802.0) from most of the forum drama, and I wish more people would use a "neutral" approach whenever possible. Some facts about LoyceV:
Thanks Satoshi! None of this would have happened without you. I truely wish I would have been here from the start. Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: TryNinja on February 26, 2020, 08:25:34 PM
Congrats, Loyce. You are truly a gem on this forum. Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: DireWolfM14 on February 26, 2020, 08:26:20 PM Your contributions to this forum are invaluable. We are all quite lucky to have you as a member of this community. Congratulations on your "Birthday," and here's wishing you many, many more!

I bet this post will bring back some good memories of long time BCTers. Well done! Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV!

Some of us have been there longer and haven't done a single thing (except a tutorial or two). Joke aside, you are indeed an extraordinary asset to the forum. And yes, you are very often quoted in the french board. I feel you should have a plaque, or a statue if Theymos decides to sell some virtual land and make a real BTC minecraft.

Learnd a few things from you and you doing and have done an awesome Job in the last 5 years. Nice to read some history of your doing and how things was ages ago! Happy Birthday for the 5 Years here :) Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: truth or dare on February 26, 2020, 10:33:24 PM These are truly impressive stats. Congratulations on demonstrating emphatically that merit earned and duration of membership are not correlated with achievements nor success.
This is great work. Keep it up. Brilliant work loyceV whoever you are. Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: TheBeardedBaby on February 26, 2020, 10:34:46 PM Gefeliciteerd!
I remember the first time I saw your profile here, i thought you were Russian :D 5 yeasts is a long time, still remember the time when you ranked up to Legendary, i was a frdsh newbie that tine :) Hey theymos seems like you have some unfinished work here, c'mon give this man a ban hammer he is wishing for for do long :) its his birthday today :) Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV!

In my early days, I even missed several "2 weeks Activity periods" on Bitcointalk, that's how inactive I was. How things have changed :D If only you had've joined 12 days earlier, we could all be wishing you a happy valentines with your 5 years partner: bitcointalk. Congrats on the 5 year anniversary, I imagine many of us thought the forum would be gone. That's the general tone I got when I joined in august 2015. I joined to see if cloudmining was legit, turns out the sites I were trying to use weren't (afaik)... We can reconvene in another 5 years when you still haven't moved off of here ;D. Perhaps by then you'll be a mod of something @Theymos where are we on creating Loyce's special board... Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: suchmoon on February 27, 2020, 01:25:01 AM ~ In 5 minutes you've proven how credible fake newbies are. Congratulations. Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: skarais on February 27, 2020, 01:59:08 AM ~~~ You have done your best and have been named a jewel on the bitcointalk.org forum. Only a few people can do as you have now, and maybe none. Congratulations on all the facts about your profile, I like it.Some facts about LoyceV:
I want to be like you, having most of the facts about goodness and great achievements embedded in my profile, I want to travel everywhere and people can get to know me but in reality I have to be at a level far from you because of limited ability and the knowledge and background that we have. I just hope that one day I can also reach a level like you. Congratulations again on your achievements in 5 years at the forum and I hope you will continue to be here for a long time. Cheers ;) Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: 1miau on February 27, 2020, 02:05:14 AM Congrats, well deserved. :)
I've tagged the account... although I can't tell if I'm actually DT2 or not, so I'm not sure what good it will do. Add ;dt to any page to see it as DT. Example: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=2398151;dtYou're on DT (included by suchmoon). I found out yesterday that I listed "bounty spammer (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5099167.msg49301382#msg49301382)" DdmrDdmr (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1582324) to be nuked last February :o I could have been knocked-off the board pretty soon though …: ~My Nuke list for consideration (I choose clickable over code-tags): @mprep and other mods apparently nuked quite a few from the list. Saved by the whistle …<…> DdmrDdmr (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1582324) <…> The ones above and under your name are all nuked. The Mods did a good job excluding you. Creating a long list is quite easy, manually checking the accounts before nuking them is a lot of (boring) work. Well done Mods :D Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: actmyname on February 27, 2020, 02:52:52 AM in 5 years you have done nothing. you have not added a single line of code to a single crypto project, and have not worked for a single blockchain startup https://media1.tenor.com/images/8a650dbffd5d35fcfa81816bcff1bbf9/tenor.gifLOL maybe in the next 5 years you will actually contribute to the technology that brings us all here.... You're not that much older than me, Loyce. :/ Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: cryptoaddictchie on February 27, 2020, 03:12:19 AM
First, congratulations mate. I am indeed your fan. 5years with so much accomplishment is amazing. I remember Pming you about an idea but too bad your too busy making this forum great and didnt give me a good suggestion. Anyways! I hope you can answer this not so long question of mine. If youre not here in forum who do you think will be the LoyceV type guy here? ;D Please pick one and answer @LoyceV some are probably wanted to here which you think is like you (except theymos, staff and global mods) Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: JollyGood on February 27, 2020, 03:16:42 AM Congratulations ;D
You are one of the most approachable people here in the forum, I hope you will be around for the next 5 years too so you can keep contributing to this wonderful place.

During this time you have really done a lot of good for the whole bitcointalk community. An indicator of your usefulness is all those users who trust you. Thank you for your hard work!
Success to you and further develop your useful website. Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: Timelord2067 on February 27, 2020, 04:45:48 AM I just posted this in another thread, but it has relevance here:
This just came up in another thread, so I thought I'd share: (feel free to add your own name) https://i.imgflip.com/3ndwi0.jpg (https://imgflip.com/i/3ndwi0) (https://imgflip.com/memegenerator) BTW, congratulations, I have over 5,000 posts and over 2,000 activity so I know how it feels to reach such milestones, I chose to celebrate a little bit more subdued: This is my 5,000th post. Many thanks to everyone who has continued to make the Known Alts thread a successful tool in the hunt to identify both alts themselves and potential or actual scammers. Congratulations on your first five years here; I've got six and a half years membership (with about a three month gap a few years back when BCT went off-line for a while due to DDoS or something similar). I nearly didn't come back, but it was the alt coins siren call that brought me back. I still recall those early days when you were generating vanity wallet addresses for people and I was "helping you out" by generating them quicker than you were able to and I would always insist that you be given the tip for services rendered (even though you hadn't done the work ;) ) You're one of the only people on this forum that I wouldn't mind meeting IRL.

and now let's get serious. i really appreciate your support and motivation to provide the community with helpful tools. as you can easily see from your list, there are many useful things that you have pulled out of your hat and if you continue like this you might be able to beat theymos in any of these disciplines. but only maybe ;D Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: truth or dare on February 27, 2020, 08:16:09 AM ~ In 5 minutes you've proven how credible fake newbies are. Congratulations. I agree with suchmoon. If you are a fake newbie then your insights and summary regarding LoyceV regarding their lack of substance coupled with their coming here originally to complain they couldn't pocket free crypto dust. Five years on still scrounging free bitcoin dust from chipmixer. These are highly credible and accurate comments. Amazing only newbies can provider accurate and useful assessments of these merit DT giants. Newbies should start their own self congratulatory threads. Been here 5 mins and already provided more value in terms of truth and accuracy than most DT and legends are capable of. The Q & A would be far more useful. No btc just payments required either. Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: LoyceV on February 27, 2020, 11:23:04 AM No need to brag ;D Once every 5 years, I get to brag :DLOL maybe in the next 5 years you will actually contribute to the technology that brings us all here.... Hi fake Newbie, I'm flattered you created a new account just to talk to me!Bitcoin's technology works fine. It needs users, and I'm pretty sure I've contributed plenty on that part. I remember Pming you about an idea but too bad your too busy making this forum great and didnt give me a good suggestion. The time I spent answering PMs slightly depends on how busy I am when I read them. I try not to ignore them, but sometimes it seems like the best option. I don't remember what you asked exactly :PQuote If youre not here in forum who do you think will be the LoyceV type guy here? ;D Please pick one and answer @LoyceV some are probably wanted to here which you think is like you The BPIP gang (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5213618.0) would do just fine.You're one of the only people on this forum that I wouldn't mind meeting IRL. Thanks, I guess :P It's just not going to happen :D I've rejected invitations before, and I'll keep doing that.Privacy FTW! The party is coming to an end now, so I'll lock this soon.

The man and the kraken. The one bitcointalk member who has no scalability issues and is able to expand his tentacles all over the forum. You think you just created the perfect post? Check again! LoyceV was faster. (This part is true) ;D Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: VB1001 on February 27, 2020, 03:11:01 PM You do a great job on the forum. 8)
Thx. Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: tranthidung on February 27, 2020, 03:17:12 PM Some facts about LoyceV: How did you reply him? Rejected his request. ;D
Not only about moderator, but it also is my surprise to know you did not a merit source at the start of merit system. You became a merit source many months after that (as you disclosed). Just kidding, Loyce. Congratulations for your 5-year on the forum as one of the biggest boys here. 5 years is a period not too long for whole lifespan of human, but on the forum it is longer. The feeling to wait for ranking up with coming activities makes it longer than it really is. No one here imagine how we will become next 5 years on the forum. We only enjoy our each day here, and let the time goes on. I have been here only half of your time and I hope that I will stay here next 3 years to have a 5-year celebration as yours. By the way, let me take this chance to say thank you again, for all your help and advice, LoyceV. :D Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV!

Anyways, congrats on your journey here and continue to do those things you're only capable of and be always an emulation to anyone that want to do what you do. Your loyce.club page is a nice site too and I guess I'll keep coming back in it. Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV!

In all seriousness, I can't believe its only been 5 years. I honestly thought you were here before me. You've definitely cemented yourself in Bitcointalk history in the time you've been here though. Title: Re: 5 years LoyceV! Post by: bones261 on February 28, 2020, 07:26:31 PM Hmm, yesterday I saw this thread was locked. I thought the OP was satisfied with the well deserved praise. I really enjoy the trust list updates and all the other info Loyce provides in Loyce.club. You are really an asset to the forum politics. Keep up the good work. I just noticed that I have only been here a few days before you. Congratulations on making entry in this space during the horrible bear market of 2014 and 2015. So much has happened in the past five years. It feels like we have been involved for decades.
