Beginers dream of becoming a Legendary, and my goal is Hero.

[sokani]

A week ago I got Sr.Member rank. This event surprised me, because I didn't expect it to happen in the near future. Pleasant suddenness - what can I say. Thanks to Quickseller, this moment was brought very close and I am sure that will tell my grandchildren about it . Thanks to him and to all those who marked my posts with "merits".

Congratulations OP for achieving your new legendary rank and it looks good on you. Your hardwork, commitment and consistency finally paid off. Looking at you gives me hope that anything(rank) is possible if only I am ready to put in the work, am making baby steps today and I hope it turns to giant strides tomorrow. Once again, congrats and enjoy your new rank 😎

For someone to get to Hero or Legendary rank, such user kust have been given to consistent learning and improvement on countless times, it's not easy because some finds it a difficult task for them to achieve, the more you could see some members getting there in more than two years, though we have some individuals personal challenges that could take away time from them resulting to not being active for some while, merits also could be another determinant and so on, but if you made it to a higher rank, you've done well in the past.

Right... It is not just about learning, which is important, though.
But realistically, people can learn from the forum without even creating an account, by just lurking around and reading other's opinions and participations. Since ranking up implies earning merits, we could say, instead, that rank is an approximation of the perception this forum as own you as a member.

There are members who have a lot of post in the bounty section, for example, but do not rank up because in the eyes of other's, they do not provide much for the enrichment of this place.

At least, that is the way I see it for now.


PS: Congratulations to OP for their rank, by the way.

Alot of discussion about bounty hunters had been made previously to this one, it's not that having a bounty profile account is an offence against the forum rules but what they always post is much focused on altcoins and bounties reports which it you can remember that this forum is majorly a bitcoin discussion platform but other boards were added to make the whole thing fun altogether, because personally I don't see what any bounty hunter has benefited me o have warrant giving any merit.

If they don't make a profit, then I don't think they will stick around. But the problem is that their profits are disproportionate to what they do, but it seems worthy to those who are grateful for what it produces.

But maybe this discussion has gone off topic, I think OP should stop it and lock this thread. @m2017, it's time.

This is the kind of inspiring threads I will always want to read through countless times especially for moments I feel like giving up and dumping my account and the forum maybe just because I feel there's no significant growth and I think every other newbie's need to learn on this story.
For it's threads with encouraging stories as this that that there's surely gonna be a light at the end of the tunnel irrespective of how long it takes, that inspired me on making this misconceptualized  post https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5446148.msg61968016#msg61968016 but howbeit am glad to have read OP story.

Yes, this thread needs to be read many times by newbies and someone who finds it difficult up to a new rank. To always exist in the forum requires effort and patience, just like rank up, it takes time to reach the required number of merits as a requirement to be promoted to a higher rank. Op story has inspired many users who feel they can't or find it hard to develop their talents in the forums. The essence of what Op has achieved, hard work always gives more than expected.

Despite the fact that there has been no discussion in this topic for almost a year, I still wanted to remind the forum about the existence of this topic. Not out of any vanity or sense of pride or anything like that. Not at all. It seems to me that the discussion and posts from here could be of some benefit to newly arrived forum participants who missed this and are unlikely to delve into such old topics. Of course, the discussion here is not of a technical (bitcoin) nature and not about the bitcoin, which would undoubtedly be more useful, but still, I believe, it can indirectly facilitate the accumulation of the bitcoin. As many may want, but they have difficulties with it. Both in the case of ranking on the forum and the accumulation of bitcoin, the principle of action will be similar - step by step, the gradual accumulation of merit or every satoshi.

Newbie, if reading these longreads doesn't tire you and you don't fall asleep , then it would be nice if this inspires someone to new achievements, both personal and public.

P.S. The writing of this post was inspired by reading one topic and with this I am ending this reminder post. Maybe again, I’ll remind you of the existence of this topic in a year or so. Time will tell.

And may the forum forgive me for this step.

Newbie have gradually been inspired by other newbie who seem to easily accumulate merit. Some merit thread can turn out to be very active and lots of newbie come flocking in looking to be farming - but I admit that thread like this are very inspiring even though I'm sure not many newbie will want to read them from A to Z.

You have to pay attention to what's going on - I mean, topics like this aren't going to be very effective in motivating newbie because it seems like most of the newbie these days are those who are farming accounts due to financial difficulties. They know exactly how to earn merit and build their accounts - so I wouldn't be surprised if some of the newbie got some real buzz because of his participation in the drama topic.

Congrats, bro!
Your achievement is very inspiring!

Your written words are a good story for encouragement for every low ranked member on Bitcointalk.
It might look like a very long way to go but when we start it, we are getting closer step by step!

Keep walking!

I wouldn't doubt as well but to be Frank during my newbie stay I actually focused on reading that hunting for merits I never knew it would be that smooth for me despite being stuck for awhile at a particular rank until I started changing my posting style and format this alone gives me a lifting hands to start witnessing a turnaround within the forum. The major problems why most of the newbies won't pay attention to this thread could be by either not having patient to read some lengthy post meanwhile those lengthy post covers lots of information they really needs to know about but due to impatient they kept hunting for merits and flooding any tokens that talks about merits distribution to an extent most of the newbies wants to forced merits source to start distributing merits as other merits source do spray merits.

What I think is when a post really covers a variety of information it propelled whomever that owns a merits to share to them but, when they noticed some leakage or poorly written post more like spamming none would be triggered to dish out his or her merits to them without wanting to spend their merits wisely. As a matter of facts merits has been the major discussion of newbies rather than learning what would help them to know their left and right in this forum.
