Updated status: Am now a HERO member

[CryptoYar]

Congratulations on achieving this rank @BIT-BENDER

I know how difficult it is the journey from senior member to hero. Because my journey is also going on and hopefully, in the next few months, I will achieve it too. Anyway congratulations once again on your achievement and best wishes for your next journey that you have already started.

if this where to be else where some of the knowledge we get here for free would require one to pay for membership or class, and to -Newbies- Never quit, read up two to three new things a day -you can make that a priority- aspire for continual evolution.

That is true, all is for free. Just get dedicated and read up. This forum is highly educating as there are very many talented members that seem like Satoshi himself. I greet and show respect for the members who have helped us all in their gifted knowledge.

For your Op, this is a new page for you to learn and also educate others. I wish you the best on your updated rank. Congrats.

I know the feeling when you achieve something. It's not easy to rank up since you have to contribute a lot and believing in yourself that you can achieve a new milestone will surely help. Congratulations on ranking up to hero member. I've seen the links you provided when you join the merit scholarship and received a good amount of merit which you surely deserve. Even though I am a bit late but still I came here to congratulate you on ranking up.

If we assume that rank up is difficult then I'm sure someone will find it difficult to achieve it and keep complaining about merit and rank. But if we consider it easy, then there is a stimulus in the form of motivation to keep trying to improve ourselve and posting from day to day until that rank is achieved. Something we say and complain repeatedly can cause our mindset and habit to change, this will be a valuable lesson to motivate ourselve to do our best. If hundred to thousand of other users can earn merit and rank, why can't we? To that end, I believe that earning merit and rank is never difficult for anyone who want to try and improve the quality of their post all the time. Congratulation to you, Legendary is the last rank you will reach after this.

Congrats on your achievement and wish you all the best. I know the feeling upon ranking up by earning merits. Earning merits isn't easy but not impossible for good contributors. I found this forum is very helpful, especially if you are a good contributor then the community always will give you a good return as well. Hope this post will inspire others that rank up is possible if they spend time here to contribute themselves. Just keep up your contribution and help others, so you will be a Legendary soon.

Congratulations BIG BENDER and really happy for you on your achievement I pray more success comes your way you are really my mentor and I hope one day I will also get to your position and I will be able to tell everyone on the forum that I followed your foot step congratulations once again.

[ShowOff]

I don't know how much longer it will take for me to reach 500 merit as the final requirement to advance to Legendary rank. But in the meantime I'm close to reaching senior rank if I start at 0 merit and it's so good for me. I haven't got a feel for how that rank is achieved as long as this merit system exist, but at least I'm going through the process of getting there. BIT-BENDER, you deserve this and I want to congratulate you on this success. I'm sure if you can achieve it in less than 2 years, then I can do it too. It will surely bloom in time.

BIT-BENDER !!! For You !!!

Congrats! It takes time and dedication to achieve this status and it just means you are willing to stay in crypto for a long time. The more you stay, the more you know and in return become a better asset to the community and the cause itself.

[Daniel91]

Congratulations BIT-BENDER on your great achievement!
I have been following you and reading your posts for a long time and you really deserved this promotion with your work and effort.
Such positive examples can be an inspiration to younger members that anything is possible with some effort.
Thank you for your contribution to this forum.
I'm glad for you and I expect to see you among the legendary members soon 

[pakhitheboss]

Your achievement is awesome but that cannot be possible unless you have the capability and the integrity to create and reply to topics with immense knowledge. A little bit of help from your local community also helps and encourage a newbie. Unfortunately most local communities except a few lack it.

BTW Congratulations!!

[CryptocurencyKing]

If it were to be a story, of course it can be,,, you'll hear something like, 'And just like that a Hero is born'. Yeah you've been breath forth to a new order, the order of Heros @BIT-BENDER. Your archivement stands out and would be an inspiration to many. Its not everyday you see people ranking up to become Heros and Legendaries in this forum and you hitting that rank is an inspiration to all who dare to rank up.
I'm inspired myself but then, it doesn't just come to you, the ranks games by the efforts you put in the forum to be about improving the quality of things in the forum and updating its content. We do that, we grow in knowledge of cryptos and in time, we would attain that which we seek.

Congratulations to you at BIT-BENDER, what a Hero you are!

[GeorgeJohn]

Congratulations bro for your new rank,its obvious that new position or achievement in the community is what to celebrate to highest level and more specifically the rank of Hero Member that's known as second position to get to the final destination of the community rank or position, i sincerely jubilate with you because it's not an easy tax before a user will get such position here, at least newbies have to see the level of joy in your heart and everyone is celebrating because of you the rank, this particular position you secured this month shows that you really have determination for the development of the community, let me use this medium to say that bitcointalk community rank is been achieved base on the gravity of personal research and commitment, congrats again bro.

[Peanutswar]

I would like to congratulate you on another member who reaches the new journey of the rank I saw your content it benefits the forum might well we are looking forward to your next path which is the Legendary member rank. The merit system is just a challenge to other members would like to reach this too especially to the newbies who serve this as a motivation.
Hopefully sooner or later I will reach that rank to congratulate again buddy.

[pawanjain]

With joy and ultimate respect in my heart, and not to make an elaborate show of it, I humbly announce my new rank on the forum as a hero member, words are not enough to demonstrate how grateful I am to the forum and the community in it, I was all but a dream I had to make caricature of my self of having, Looking back at my route/journey I have accepted all my credits, my flaws, and onto the next journey I know there would be more learning to do.
 A very big thank you to everyone doing what they do best on the forum, if this where to be else where some of the knowledge we get here for free would require one to pay for membership or class, and to -Newbies- Never quit, read up two to three new things a day -you can make that a priority- aspire for continual evolution.

Once again thanks to the forum, Administrations, staffs, those who I have had electric Intelligent conversation with, those whose post has not lead anyone astray, and thanks to everyone at large.

Wow, I am really happy for you bro. I can only imagine the happiness you must have right now.
Even I am nearing to achieve Hero member rank. It surely has been a long journey and a great struggle.
But with time, we all have learnt more than we could have learned. This forum is definitely a life changer for good.

[Porfirii]

Congratulations BIT-BENDER!! Hero rank is huge and since the introduction of the merit system, much much harder than before.

I hope I can join you in your "heroism" in a few months, wish me luck and keep contributing with your comments

Once again thanks to the forum, Administrations, staffs, those who I have had electric Intelligent conversation with, those whose post has not lead anyone astray, and thanks to everyone at large.

What a nice way to end your self congratulation post, it's has been long since I saw such type of post on the forum. I thought people no longer celebrate their ranking up on the forum. We shouldn't discourage user from celebrating themselves as it serve as a motivation to users like us with lower rank to improve on our writing qualities and someday we'll be celebrating our very our ranking up.

This is a well deserved achievement and very soon you'll be heading to the legendary rank, already you have started earning merits to rank you up again, hopefully when you're celebrating next time I'll be congratulating you with a higher rank as well.
