My name was in that topic for a few weeks either. But I was really busy in the last couple of weeks and couldn't earn any more merits. Building ourselves to become a part of Bitcointalk requires a lot of dedication and consistency. It's not always easy to produce quality posts all the time and even so, quality posts are not always recognized.
Btw, you've gone so fast mate. I remember giving you a merit to your journey to Full member rank a couple of months ago and now you're almost Senior. It only takes a few days to reach Senior at this speed. An early congratulation to you on that.
