    This place has transformed my life and many others I have got to know over the years. I first came here in December 2013 and after much struggling I have rebooted (with no PMO for 2 years in five weeks time) . The first video I ever saw was the Ted Talk by Gary Wilson RIP. I feel tremendous gratitude to @Alexander for providing this resource. I have been sending $20 per month for years as well as a donation to the legal bill that Alex is required to find. I don't have much money because I am unable to work because of my disabilities. But I would like to do something else to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of NoFap. Perhaps you can give me some ideas or say what you plan to do. Thank you. :)

    I don't understand this thread very well. You mean celebrating here in the page or in our home by ourselves.

    What do you mean?
    Give us an example, what ideas you have so far.

    @IGY - Respect to you for your contributions to the community. All opinionated differences aside, you are a staple of the forum and community. I don't think we can clearly state the impact Gary had and will continue to have for years to come. I think continuing to donate is a good way to keep his memory alive. I do the nofap weekly calls myself which cost me about $40 a month or so. It also goes to this site if I'm not mistaken... Aside from that, the best way might just be to stay away from porn. I think he'd appreciate that right?

    I apologise that what I said was unclear. I do not have examples or ideas at the moment. But I am aware that the 10 year anniversary of NoFap is only 1 month away. This thread is to garner ideas about what we can do individually to celebrate it.
     
  6. Let's get out and let a friend of us know about nofap . Let many more people join this amazing place.

    I wish I could celebrate this day, but I don't have any ideas, neither do I have something great to improvise on, but I really long to celebrate the 10th anniversary, it's really a cardinal day and a crucial one marking the 10th anniversary of NoFap, hearing what happened to Gary Wilson really broke my heart, in memory of him, I'm going to read his book entirely from start to finish definitely after delaying it for a whole year, I really wish there was an obituary for him and people remember his legacies and what he left, and I think my celebration would be to never fap again ever because I would feel like I'm neglecting my life to endorse that which is ruining my life.

    @IGY celebration must be inclusive I think it would not be a bad idea to include others in the celebration specially in a page that has helped you so much. How you celebrate the anniversary of a page that has given you so much? You help others the same way.

    One thing could be you IGY creating a 10 years Nofap challenge. It could be simply to make a 1 month streak until the anniversary date. You can add awards or some rules if you want or simply the streak. I'll join for sure and probably all the ones who have written on this thread. Even if it's just 3 people join I consider it a success at least helping 1 person in trying to achieve 1 month streak it's very encouraging and I'm sure your friends will join the challenge as well.

    The other is you IGY writing a 10 year nofap series of threads in honour of nofap explaining all the things you have learned on this page or in NoFap in general.

    The best celebration is to help others

    Giving your time writing threads it's a good way to give to others you seem IGY to have a clear mind and a nice way of writing but I haven't seen your threads, maybe on your journal but I think friends are the ones who keep track on that. In threads there's is a more broad audience and more help can be achieved. Why don't you try it one month maybe just one thread a week or even just 1 success thread story could be enough.

    Yes, I celebrate NoFap everyday by helping others. It has done a great deal to me and I like to 'give back' to everyone. And thanks for your ideas about different ways of celebrating.
    I do not have a journal, it just isn't me. I comment on threads where I feel I can add some value or give much needed encouragement. But a lot of what I do is behind the scenes giving specific help and advice to individuals. The most popular thread I started myself is here... The Rebooting Toolbox (Tips and Tricks) | NoFap®
