I just realized that today is my 5th anniversary as a member of the Bitcointalk community, most of you don't know me and probably have not seen any of my posts, but I can assure you that I had a wild journey which I never saw coming, form a random newbie with a silly user name asking some stupid questions, to top 10 most merited user at some point, I don't even recall how all these events played out, not even sure how I managed to write 7000 posts despite being busy most of the time, but shit happens. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) My story is probably isn't new, many members built better profiles than mine in a short time, but the thing you need to understand is that it isn't difficult AT ALL to have a good place in this forum, you don't need coding skills or to be able to speak multiple languages, you don't even need to know how Bitcoin actually works, all you have to do is remain consistent and do your best to learn and share knowledge. I would like to thank everyone who is contributing something to the forum, keep up the good work.
Now a new journey begins, and hopefully, 5 years later I would be able to write another boring story like this one.

There is a thread dedicated to concentrate this kind of self-congratulary threads, to avoid having a lot of threads in the section of people congratulating themselves. Announce your rank up, merit or any achievements that makes you feel great!I think I had enough of these common topics like "Finally a member/full member/hero/legendary", "xday/xmonth/xyear legendary", "x is finally a member/full member/hero/legendary now", "1k/2k/3k/..../nk merit club", "one/two/three/n milestones achieved", "I am now member/full member/hero/legendary", "From beginner to member/full member/hero/legendary in x days", "Got my 1st/2nd/3rd/.../nth badge", "celebrating 1year/2years/3years/.../n years", "My/his/their contribution to the forum", "x men forum guide list" the list is way too long!
I understand that you get a pass on this because of what a high quality poster you are but I hope this doesn't set an example and go back to having a bunch of scattered threads of people congratulating themselves for having reached member ranks and the like. Anyway, congratz for such a good contribution to the forum.

A lot of things you've been through in your 5 years on the forum, it's not easy to reach Legendary rank with 5000+ merits without a good contribution to the forum. When you first registered, you did a lot of stupid things, starting from ridiculous questions and spamming, which caused many posts to be deleted by Mod. Now that you are an adult with the highest rating on the forum, there are still many positive things you can do to guide Juniors with constructive education. Five years later.!! Who can guess, I hope you stay consistent here with higher quality posts. The next challenge is for you for 5 years and then you can enter the 10k merit club.

Congratulations, it's rare to find someone as helpful, knowledgeable and uncompromising as the owner of the @mikeywith account. I hope the 10th anniversary passes and you have more than 10,000 merits, keep up the good posts. I've asked @mikeywith many times and he helped me so I consider him a trusted account and he's a good & active member of both mining and local board.

I'm familiar with you, though I don't think we've interacted much over the years. I haven't looked at your post history, but I'm assuming that's most likely because we frequent different sections. It's either that or I'm a totally inattentive idiot with a worsening memory problem the more I spend time here. Lol. the thing you need to understand is that it isn't difficult AT ALL to have a good place in this forum, you don't need coding skills or to be able to speak multiple languages, you don't even need to know how Bitcoin actually works, all you have to do is remain consistent and do your best to learn and share knowledge.
I can strongly second that; I came to the forum as a bitcoin skeptic to say the least and mainly to take advantage of Theymos's very liberal moderation policy, i.e., I wanted to troll the morons I saw making ridiculous posts in terrible English when I was a lurker. I have no background in computer science, cryptography, or even that much in technology--most people here are so much more knowledgeable than me in those areas that I'm surprised I ended up with the reputation I have. I made up for my shortcomings in expertise by being a controversial and outspoken personality (that's my take on it, at least), and I see a lot of new members and even some who've been here for a couple of years who are nearly identical to each other in terms of the boring, generic content of their posts and who infuse none of them with any personality whatsoever. So to anyone who wants to be rollin' around the bitcointalk hood at 2am like a boss, smoking a blunt, cruising for trouble....you have to make your presence known in one way or another (and without being such a retard that you get banned). I'm not sure that's what most people are aiming for, though. This forum is like a place of employment for many, and they don't necessarily care to do much beyond making posts of 160 characters, etc., etc. Same old story.

There is no obligation to post in any dedicated thread to announce anything. Nowadays when a thread of this sort appears someone will comment about posting in the dedicated threads but I see no real reason to oblige. Some have flooded in the hope of receiving merits (which clearly is not the case here). We have not interacted much previously but I have seen some of your posts. I wish you success and prosperity in your next 5 years and beyond ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) There is a thread dedicated ".

Congratulation, dear mikeywith! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Your achievements here are truly outstanding and I believe we can say very certainly that you've become very famous on Bitcointalk, especially for your knowledgeable and technical contributions, which are very helpful for Bitcointalk after all. In addition, I like your general encouragement in your OP as well as your journey can be very inspiring for new members. Finally, it's time to request an update in LoyceV's topic again. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Congratulation mate mikeywith. I see you're very active even in your local, I believed that the more you're active and give your dedicated time to the forum will receive a reward and you deserved it because you've contributed very well here in the forum. Based on BPIP.org, you're in 22nd place on most earned merit and 31st place on most merit. Salute you mate.

I was about to report the topic to the mods to get it deleted so I can post the same thing in the "dedicated topic", I assumed there was some sort of general consensus that such topics shouldn't exist at all, thank you both for clearing the confusion.
Thanks, everybody for the nice words, appreciation is important, and I appreciate all the efforts made by the fine community member to keep this place shining with knowledge and productive discussion.

Congratulations on your five long years with the forum. In these five years you have earned more than 5000 merits while your number of posts is more than seven thousand. No doubt you are an important member of this forum. You have contributed a lot to this forum. Most of your posts Mining support(18%), Mining speculation(10%), and Mining(4%) are not important forum posts but you have contributed significantly to the forum. Hope you continue like this in future. If you are regular active in the forum, expect your merit number to exceed 12000 in next five years.

Just to remind you that I never spoke of an obligation, I think it is not necessary to quote myself, you can see my post above. In this case, as in the other of joker_josue I think that the community sees better that a separate thread is made for people who have made an exceptional contribution to the forum, and not just someone who has reached with a lot of effort Member rank but having twice the activity.

You have played an important role in the forum with dedication for 5 years passed by sharing and imparting your knowledge. You have already crossed more than 7000 posts which is not easy. Also you are also ahead in terms of reliability that means trust level. @mikeywith Your profile currently has 1834 activities and 5069 merits. Undoubtedly, your long journey in Bitcoin Talk forum discussions has played a great role and the tireless work you have done today has created this milestone. Your forum account is now a focal point of inspiration and motivation for many. Hope you will go ahead and play more important role by imparting your knowledge and talent in the forum continuously.

If there's no obvious intention of aggressive Merit fishing because OP can't get Merit by normal posts (which is clearly not the case for mikeywith), new achievements topics should be eligible. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) You are right 1miau. Anyway, that dedicated thread was created not that long ago under the guise of reducing spam and/or reducing announcements that we remade in the hope of receiving merits but personally I would not bother posting in it if I wanted to announce anything and many others have continued to ignore it by posting their announcements in their own newly created threads. The situation changes of-course if the forum admins create a dedicated thread for members to make their personal announcements.If they did then it is fine we all should post our milestones and rank-up and other announcements in that admin created dedicated thread but since that did not happen there is definitely no obligation for members to post in any thread that any member creates and states it is for this reason or it is for that reason. Just to remind you that I never spoke of an obligation, I think it is not necessary to quote myself, you can see my post above I did not quote you, there is a misunderstanding. I merely advised the OP there was no obligation to post in any dedicated thread (because it was not set up by admins as a rule) and that he was more than welcome to post about what he wanted. Sorry for the confusion.

Congratulations, you've made it to your 5th year on the Bitcoin Forum. In these 5 years you have earned 5000 merits and posted 7000 posts. This achievement is not an easy matter but it is a result of many efforts. You are a valuable personality in this bitcoin forum. Just as you have progressed in these 5 years, I hope you will progress in the same way in the next 5 years. Even if you haven't brought yourself to people in these 5 years, I hope you will definitely do better for the forum from now on. We want to make this hope to you.
