OP, beyond all the smart pieces of advice already given to you above, I want to quickly add these –
1. Never on any account take any financial/investment advice from any person here; hook, line and sinker without first DYOR. DYOR means – Do Your Own Research. Don't be lazy about making research because it surely saves the day and stress for you.
2. Avoid anyone who sends you an inbox message, seeking to help you without you first sending them a pm. Most often they're out to scam you.

Let's hope that op will read this. Most of what I witness when I help a newbie and yet later on that same newbie got banned for plagiarism when I specifically told that you should do your own research yet didn't do it. I would also add a other to your list. 3. Never give your main email address as many scammers will send you something in your email that may get your credentials to your wallet or you will fall victim to such scheme. Also, it is possible to get a malware from emails or redirected to phishing sites.

It's kind of hard to follow all advice everyone do give on the forum. One thing bind us in common which is the rules and regulations.
If you want to stay relevant and active without any form of implications, kindly stick to rules and regulations.

basically all the encouragement rendering from any member here is useful because those their advices is from their objectives, what they witness, and what they pass through, so no ideas or opinion is waste, basically the bone of contention is narrowing at the protocols of the community which is ( The Rules and Regulations) as you said, because i can't dispute the fact that the rules is not included, but the strategic way will be given through experienced bitcointalk community user.

My best advice to real newbies is that - Settle in quickly, observe and understand the rules of how the forum operates, don't be afraid to engage constructively and meaningfully in discussions that you are comfortable with to share your own unique perspective on the topic, and finally, be respectful and responsible in your discussion to other forum users.

Always remember the forum rules and make sure you do not take them for granted too. This is the most important thing. Try to spend time on research to expand your knowledge in order to give good contribution in the forum . As you continue to stay in the forum you will grow to know more things.

Well, @Prohibited2021 has been Nuked (banned and all post deleted), so these last few posts serve as an example of one of the core things to avoid on the forum. Despite the warnings, the user either didn’t care, didn’t understand, or wasn’t quick enough to resolve the situation in his favour. Granted that a Newbie account is no great loss (for the owner of the account).

I found another copy-paste of it, so I hope this user leaves the forum.

To be honest, I don't think this user gonna leave the forum just because he got banned. What he is probably gonna do is create new account, and continue with business as usual and if he has any brain, he will avoid plagiarism.

That's probably the main reason why I prefer to warn newbies instead just reporting them for plagiarism as if their goal is to profit from this forum in one way or another, they will just create another account and continue like nothing happened, while with warning there is a chance (albeit small) that he will edit the post and learn something.

And yet you fail to comment one of the most, if not the most, common pitfall for Newbies on the Forum: Failing to comply with a rule that you seem to having missed -> Rule 33.

I warned him yesterday that he should edit his post and include reference links as I wanted to give him a chance instead just reporting him for plagiarism, but obviously he decided to ignore that. I predict that his stay on bitcointalk will be very short. At least with this account.

He is not the only plagiarist, and I would not become so actively involved in his life on the forum.
I found another copy-paste of it, so I hope this user leaves the forum. Since his confessions of interest in the forum begin with falsity, and this, as usual, ends badly.

Specifically, I'd revise you post on staking and revisit the second paragraph, comparing it to what’s written here:
https://www.fool.com/investing/stock-market/market-sectors/financials/cryptocurrency-stocks/what-is-staking/

Sparking resemblance … If you’re reading this, you may still have time to add the reference links to that post to avoid what could be a short stay here ...

He didn't just copied 2nd paragraph, but everything except that "Im all for crypto staking" sentence at the beginning of the post.

Quote from: ?? on ??

Crypto staking involves "locking up" a portion of your cryptocurrency for a period of time as a way of contributing to a blockchain network. In exchange, stakers can earn rewards, typically in the form of additional coins or tokens.

Quote from: ?? on ??

Is Staking profitable? In one word, yes. Staking is nearly as profitable as the mining or trading of cryptocurrencies, and without risk. All you have to do is stake (buy & hold) some coins in order to get added to the mining pool.

My mistake sorry
The original is here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/guide-for-newbies-to-learn-faster-about-this-forum-5352992

I noticed your post in almost every thread about newbies asking for a starter boost to learn about bitcointalk and also about the forum and its rules.

I also saw your own thread about it with the same words and content, why don't you just quote your own post? I mean it's more better and safer for you. You keep posting about rules but you did not read rule no.12 which is,

Quote from: mprep on July 21, 2014, 12:27:51 PM

12. No duplicate posting in multiple boards (except for re-posting topics in the local language boards if they're translated and re-posting marketplace topics in the altcoin boards if altcoins are accepted).

Be mindful and wise because that is the best weapon you can get yourself.

I am simply not offending you, i just wanted to let you know and i hope you'll understand my point.

I think step one that beginners should take is to read. There are so many sources that you can use to gain some knowledge. First of all, know the basics. Bitcointalk could be one of the best sources for us to do our research, Start from Bitcoin first, every basic that you can find about Bitcoin. Then, slowly learn about Altcoin, DeFi, NFTs, DEX, CEX, etc. Along the journey, you might find a new thing. If you don't understand, note that and search for it. While learning, you can also do it to practice. Do some trades in a small amount etc. I hope it could help.

The task to succeed in the forum the will be greatly appreciated if i can get some from the senior one's.

There's no "task to succeed" on this forum, ranking up is not necessary to use this forum, it's purely a cosmetic feature that allows you to do things like adding avatar and signature. This forum is simply a place to discuss Bitcoin. This isn't even a great place for learning about Bitcoin, because you are not guaranteed to receive good answers.

You are welcome to Bitcointalk, I believe the high rank People in the forum are really going to assist you but first I believe you should know about the forum rules try and go true the rules and know what's accepted and what's prohibited. There are reward for postive contribution to the forum and there are also punishment to negative activities on the forum, so try and familiar yourself with the forum rules so as not to go against the rules.

You are welcome to the forum. Bitcointalk forum is open for everyone to read and understand what crypto is about. Feel free to read, ask questions in areas you find confusing about crypto and do post meaningfully. Each one of us was once a newbie. So be yourself cos there is so much knowledge to be grabbed from here. Don't keep the knowledge you got from this forum to yourself, help us spread the news of cryptocurrency to your friends and family members

Greetings. Am appealing for the best advise to guide newbies like me who just recently registered and this is my first post in the forum.

op, everyone with a higher rank here was once a newbie but they gets to the rank they are today through their engagement, observation, determination, consciousness and seriousness towards the bitcointalk community.

as new user you have to devote out time to read across the boards because the community is made up of different boards, just take your precious time to study the methods of communication via bitcoin related in order to develop wisely to cryptocurrency conversation and also abstain yourself from negative part of what the community forbid, you can as well read up here, https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/newbies-read-before-posting-1689727]Newbies and https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/unofficial-list-of-official-bitcointalkorg-rules-guidelines-faq-703657]Unofficial and also as a fresher to the community post to a board you comprehend the terms and read carefully before posting.

Before you get any good answers and suggestion, then let me ask you something first. May I know what your interest are and why did you register on the forum?

When we don't know what you are interested in on this forum and what your goals are for signing up, then you really are in a gray area where it will be difficult for other users to give you the right advice. Now you are presented to start reading the welcome message and learn a few other thing like forum rule, rank and activity. So your next task is to determine interest.
