Which Member Has Inspired You Most in BitcoinTalk?

[OddJobsForBitcoin]

I wouldn't kno why there's no follow button in the forum. However, there are members you come across and you can't help reading everything they have to say because they're so cool, and valuable. There's a guy I cam across his posts a few years ago and since then, he has left an indelible impression in my mind. Since it's holiday and we all have some time to spend on BTT, I'd like us to appreciate such people while asking Theymos to add a follow button just the way we have the ignore button.

Who has impressed you the most in the forum? I mean someone you'll alway read all their posts whenever you see them. For me, he is a real champ ...




Mocaccino. I wouldn't miss lose him in BTT for a million bucks. Very knowlwdgeable.


Who is the member you'd read everything they have to say whenever you can?

The forum is never lacking of inspiration, there are a lot of inspiring forum members that are consistent, and on days when these members are not active, the forum is not short of replacements. These inspiring forum members are spread across all ranks, Legendary to sometimes full members, and from the regular boards posters to even posters that restrict themselves to their local boards. It is difficult to make a pick if you really read a lot of topics in different boards and have a piece of how every user thinks from their writing. Inspiring members are present in all of the boards of the forum, even in the gambling boards.

I really want to say a big thank you to every forum user who consciously makes effort to inspire others whenever they write.

Post are being categorized according to how they are helpful or useful to you, sometimes what you finds helpful might not be that helpful to others although I actually value some of the post I come across here and if they are very meaningful to me or in any form helpful to me all I will do is to give credits to it by dropping 1 merits or above depending on how constructive the post is to me. That is why you finds some post with lots of merits out there since there is no follow button to say all you could do is to merits any user you find inspiration from their post.

You can follow or add Threads to your watchlist.

As it has not really have do with the Forum on it self i guess this Topic should be in Bitcoin Forum > Economy > Trading Discussion > Reputation
In the Reputation Board there are a lot of Topics that have to do with Users and about them.
You can move your Topic by yourself on the bottom left corner with Move Topic.

[SatoPrincess]

Looks like this topic fits in Reputation than Meta. If the topic was solely about requesting for a follow button to be added to the forum, it would make sense for the topic to be in meta. But the content of your post is mixed with other discussions.

You can follow your favorite Bitcointalk member using LoyceV’s Follow users on Bitcontalk (posts and/or topics) or  TryNinja’s Telegram Bot.

[tranthidung]

Bitcoin talk forum has more than 3M users and it's going to have the 4th M user soon.

The most inspiring users for each member are different. It depends on the user's needs to use the forum such as favorite boards and discussion types in which there will be some other members are most actively there and usually give most insightful answers for community help request.

Generalize the answer for OP question, look at BPIP that is one of most famous and favorite third-party website for Bitcoin talk users.

My real champ:
OddJobsForBitcoin, who keeps me enthusiastic about looking for merit jobs.
Don't ask me any further, please. The people who inspire me change every day.

if there are similarities in the ways, this is just a coincidence.

Wow, I saw my username in two of the four categories--and I'll be damned if I know how I'm even in the top 1000 most recognized members.  That really baffles me.

Say, didn't we just have a thread like this?  I seem to recall one whose title asked who your bitcointalk mentor was, and this here is practically the same thing.  I don't know, it seems redundant.  Anyway, like I said in that other thread, Vod was big as was Lauda, hilariousandco, and Blazed.  They didn't all inspire me necessarily, but it isn't often that a newcomer gets any support from either an old-timer or a moderator, so that's why I remember those names.

Yes we have had a couple of similar threads in the past and your answer on the subject is pretty much the same. it’s amazing how much someone can make a lasting impression on others.

This follow button is not necessary. You can simply go to the profile of the forum user you are interested in and at the very bottom you will see “Show the last posts of this person”, where you can read all the posts of this user. Both the latest and the earliest.

Who has impressed you the most in the forum? I mean someone you'll alway read all their posts whenever you see them. For me, he is a real champ ...

I can't single out just one. Many members contribute in their own way in various directions and discussions. I see the forum not as a place where you can read the posts of one or a few prominent users, but as a BTC-community in which everyone contributes as best they can and makes this community stronger. It often happens that even beginners and low-ranking users voice very interesting and useful thoughts. This is where all the power of the forum lies - in the users, which makes the forum decentralized in a sense.

[Apocollapse]

This is my champ: Symmetrick

Name me an another user who have 11K merits, 15K+ posts, participated in top campaign, have many positive trusts, respected by many users, actively tagging cheaters or abusers, but...

He decided to delete all of his posts, delete all feedback he left, and wipe all his trust list, now he get banned.

I don't think there's an user like him who want to let everything he built to be completely destroyed.

[Aanuoluwatofunmi]

Talking about knowledgeable members of this forum, I bet we cannot count them all at the same time because you will keep making discovery of so many others, there are people who have made it a determination to build up themselves and making quality contributions to the forum e even at their own expense, so as for me, any reputable member that is committed to the forum development is an inspiring members because you will be surprised seeing something impressive from someone you least expect one while those whom you may think should maintain their pedigree may not be as up to expectations anymore.

Mocaccino. I wouldn't miss lose him in BTT for a million bucks. Very knowlwdgeable.

Who is the member you'd read everything they have to say whenever you can?

Yeah, he is a good dude, I also read some topics of him and replied to them, and talking about myself, I have many mentors here, and some of them are from the local community and some are top contributors to this forum from whom I have learned a lot. I have learned a lot not from a single member but from many, so I don't think it is worth mentioning them all.

I just will say, the top contributors with 1000+ are the ones who gave me real knowledge. That's it.

[Upgrade00]

There are too many members who do great work here and it will be difficult to pick and choose who inspired the most during the year.

o_e_l_e_o is one member who is always reliable when it comes to the technical aspects of Bitcoin. Powerglove has been quite instrumental for the forum in general and brought out more changes than I have experienced in my other years on the forum. CryptopreneurBrainboss is also an ever influential member of the forum, and so many other names that are too many to be mentioned.

I hope it will not surprise you to know that you are a user I don't skip his post whenever I meet it. Not that you are a bitcoin savvy or an overly intelligent human. But, your approach to every post and response to questions is different, full of audacity and sometimes may sound rebellious to the weak minds. It happened often in the Best_change campaign thread. Then, Bestchange on his side is an intelligent human being who understands the importance of constructive criticism and how to use same to propel his business. Congratulations my BTT Hero, your Christmas gift was superb.

@Op, what happens is that at different times, we have different inspirers. I mean someone you inspired you this year might not be next year. As we progress in the forum we meet different personalities. Some who inspired me as a newbie no longer inspire me now while I have discovered new personalities. Such is life.
I have voted in the end of year voting thread.

[mindrust]

satoshi. Without a doubt.

He was the man who minded only his own business. No dramas, no shenanigans, no curse words, no sig camp spam, no bitching. He was all about math, coding, cryptography etc. He ain't buying any of your bullshit. He was the real D-E-A-L. The R-E-A-L strong silent type. He was the man who cleaned his own closet. Coded his own node. "Can I do this, can I do that, is it against the law, what if he gov don't liek eet?" Zero fucks given.

There are some other people which come pretty close but they ain't no satoshi. Nobody can be.

I like the sense of humor in any controversial topic.

OgNasty.

Off topic response in threads LOL

Symmetrick Ratimov.
An example of not to try hard to build reputation.

[Coyster]

now he get banned.

That user isn't banned, you can check in: https://bpip.org/Profile?id=2627711 if you are not sure. I guess you think that user is banned because they still have a mixer signature and avatar on, but that's not how the mixer ban works. Mixer signatures have been wordfiltered already and if the user doesn't remove it, they'd be blanked in a few days or so. A user would only be banned if they continue advertising mixer signatures and avatars, i.e. by wearing a new mixer signature or avatar.

[Apocollapse]

That user isn't banned, you can check in: https://bpip.org/Profile?id=2627711 if you are not sure.

Even though BPIP not showed he's get banned, but I trust the moderator in this case since he have a button to ban someone.

The user Symmetrick has been banned, so haters of this user can breathe a sigh of relief. So discussion of this issue has lost its relevance.

I do completely understand how the ban on mixer works. Not only advertising the mixer in signatures or avatars, but if you mention the URL link, you will get banned too.
