Oh, I must've been thinking of Lisbon then! I do remember meeting you. SF2 was a similar whirlwind because we were promoting the HardFork Series there. I'd love to actually go to a fest and just be a spectator

Thanks Lizelle. Sometimes it still doesn't feel real and I don't think that feeling will ever really leave me. Maybe someday I'll put this story to "paper". It's weird having such an unconventional

I'm happy to hear it's worked out so well for you!

Thank you!

I appreciate that! Yes, I've taken breaks myself. I think the longest break was about twenty days. I always ended up missing it though.

Thanks!

Thanks, it sure is!

Thank you!

It's crazy!

Thanks! I think it's more like 2-3k posts, that 20k includes post comments I've written as well.

Sure does!

It's had its ups and downs but has, overall, been very rewarding.

Thanks! After nine years you do get to know people pretty deeply.

Thank you! I'm sure helping to run this place can be very time-consuming. I've considered getting a node up and running. Maybe I'll look into that in the coming months.

Too quickly, man. I think it took a couple of weeks for my membership to be approved. I don't know if they were actually vetting potential members at that point or just controlling the amount of people

It's gone so quickly, hasn't it?! I think I do remember meeting you at the first SteemFest in Amsterdam. I presented at the Tobacco Theater and was only able to stay for two days (because I was still working)

Thank you! I wasn't aware you were on Steemit as well! I remember Steem Hunt.

Thank you Krisz! I think that 20k includes comments as well. My actual posts might be closer to between 2-3k if I'm doing the math correctly in my head. I'm glad our paths crossed too! How did you find

Thank you Luis! I'm so happy that you've stuck it out for nine years. Sometimes patience and consistency really pays off. You've done well! How about we stick around for another decade or so? Cheers to

Oh yeah, August of 2016! That was still super early and got to ride that initial wave (more like a tsunami). I don't think the platform saw its first real dip until after the first SteemFest in November.
