LFC_Bitcoin's topic 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 Cheesy
I've been a Mod on Rollin.io until the site shut down. That's where I grew my thick skin. And, according to some, a pony tail Cheesy
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 Smiley I often feel honored for being mentioned on local boards which I can't even read. My Trust list viewer is still my proudest work, and it's often used to prove certain points (good or bad). I try to remain neutral 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.
