I would acknowledge all those xeroc suggested above but obviously missing there is xeroc's own contribution.. frequently making useful contributions.
More substaintial recently then is bytemaster and toast, their actions over the last days have been very encouraging.
I wonder that there should be a standing thankyou thread and perhaps some way of acknowledging individual's, perhaps a + 1% button beneath the profile's post count. There really are too many people to recall offhand and it's nice to acknowledge people in the moment too; a simple hat tip, where direct reply isn't useful.
Wow .. that is actually a good idea .. to have at least a button below the name which users can click to just say "thank you" .. no strings attached .. maybe not even a financial incentive .. or mabe .. by clicking that link redirect them to the "support tipping" fund/thread ..
I like that idea .. ...
I have been humbled to work with some of the most selfless people I have ever met this past year...and to know that I found them literally all here on a forum that exists somewhere between the real world and an endless digital void...well needless to say, its been amazing. They never knew it, but I was sitting back and waiting to see which ones would stick around...which ones would continue "the grind" through the most trying of times.
Without them, the network effect would have been far more difficult to achieve. When Brian says we have the biggest and best community in Crypto...he means it. And it is because of them coupled with the small contributions from every individual who cared enough to take 5 minutes out of their day to do something,
anything...to help.
I must leave it at this, however, as there is ONE purpose to this thread. Please help me identify these individuals!
