Topic: 15 amazing steps to grow yourself in a forum (Read 182 times)

Haha. (Almost) every time I find a interesting profile it gets banned eventually... The sad truth for the forum.
Now I'm waiting for the user Vodlike to pop up

My report is marked 'unhandled' for a few days now. I guess it takes time for text spinning reports to go through. I've also noticed that some of these, to my surprise, result in a bad report even though it's quite clear that they are CP & S. Rip my 100% accuracy...

Slightly offtopic, if you don't know what Inflation is...please read:

Vod is a great poster & everything, a pillar of the community but I’m sorry, the OP’s username is fucking embarrassing. How are you supposed to be taken seriously with a name like that.

Imagine becoming an established poster & years later still having - Looking-upto-vod as a username

In the words of JJG - Get the fuck outta here!

I'm wondering how that user is not banned yet. I could swear I saw someone found them copy-pasting.

How the hell you came up with this username?? Just wondering.

Everything can be compressed in just 5 easy steps, as I wrote earlier today, you need to chose your priorities correctly :


I support the statement that this thread should be moved to B&H section.

How about:

16.  Don't create merit-begging threads thinly disguised as help manuals for newbies on bitcointalk, which state obvious facts that anyone with an ounce of common sense should already know.

Seriously, this is a ridiculous thread.  Members need to stop worrying about how much they're "growing" on bitcointalk.  I know of no other forum where such a thing is a priority for anyone.

Or better yet, the trash can.

Can you please move it to Help and Beginners? I think this thread isn't supposed to be here.

Hello community

 A lot of thread has being made as to regards how to merit, ranking and so on. Most times I go through a newbie thread as to regards issues(either whining some thing)  about the forum I can sense confusion, inferiority complex, indecision in every letter.  So many wonder why would they as newbie make a post and not get any reward while a higher rank member makes it and get well it's has to do with intentions. When you have a good intention you would receive admiration form most here.

  Surviving in a forum can be simple and easy. Why not employ this steps

1. Understand forum rules and stick to it.
2. Be original and simple
3.  Always see the positive side even in a negative situation
4.  Be opened to learning
5.  Have a good communication skills- you don't necessarily need to be the best in English just a good communication skills is good
6.  Respect your superior- that's not to say you should be an ass liker no one love those set of people just a healthy respect is ok
7. Always admit when you are wrong- no one is perfect and above errors but you can only take corrections when you admit that
8.  Avoid bad click and gang- there are some click, group or gang that are in this forum that are here to do evil like selling of merit, defrauding etc if you ever get contacted by them show them the door.
9.  Be ready to research- this you must be ready to do, no one is a dull brain absolutely no one be ready to read about cryptocurrency and if you not the reading type there are videos you can watch, just do a research.
10. Never get discouraged- your zeal should be at a high level never waving. Keep you eyes on the goal at do it the right and legal way.
11. Work for the good of the forum- anytime you notice an illegal practice by any one don't just turn away like you don't care push the report button. The forum is for everyone of us.
12. Avoid envy and discontentment- this is the major reason why most newbies complain about the merit system being unfair. When you get this out of your Mind then and only then can you rise
13. Find a mentor- you don't necessarily have to contact the person all you have to do is know that figure which you can admire and aspire to be like. Avoid plagiarising there post just follow there footstep
14. Don't be quick to judge- always keep your emotions is check don't let it control you. You will most likely get things twisted if you do
15. Don't be afraid to try- like it is said If you don't buy the ticket you can't win the lottery. So why not give it a try that's after you must have come up with something good.

Good luck
