Topic: Bitcointalk needs to be more noob friendly (Read 5617 times)

Thanks dude but my grandma is dead, so real slick there...

My escrow service is great, I do it privately for a few people, cause I didn't have time to do all the request. Hence why the spot is now removed. Also I never did that for coins, you do realized that if you go read my thread I only did it to give back to the community so of course I was never planned on getting rich off it or make anything. Which you clearly think I was going too. But people are nice they usually donate a few coins, of course I can't talk about the amounts that would go against my own TOS for it.

After this I am not replying anymore to you in this thread cause you just trying to get attention by hijacking the thread and now it is off-topic.

There are benefits and consequences of both sides.  But as a noob it is nice to be able to get simple and easy to understand answers.

The catch with opening the doors is that it also applies to spammers and scammers. There needs to be some cost related to creating an account or they will make infinite accounts. Since it would be unreasonable to charge newbie admission in bitcoins, that cost needs to be human time/effort.

And no, we don't need millions of new users immediately. We can grow sustainably over decades. Sure, the value can drop, but propping up the current price with a stream of new money is not the purpose of this forum.

I hereby validate your point #1 and #2...this is my eighth post while in newbie jail...and I was reading for about two weeks prior to wanting to post something, and going through this...

I had no problem meeting the requirements, hell by the time I got my 5th post I was surprised to see I had 12 hours logged in. I did however do a lot of reading before I posted at all. My only knowledge before coming here was with LTC, (it's what I started with) but after being here a bit I learned quite a lot. If you find the right stuff to read these forums has a wealth of information about BTC and other alt coins that I didn't even know about.

Yeah ? Well please explain to me how a newbie can go the market place and communicate with sellers or open a thread ??

it is already noob friendly

4hour log in is TOTAL BS imo ...given the fact these forums are viewable to NON-members (unlike hack/cc forums where u need to reg first and be approved)

1.Since I could read all around with no restriction I saw NO NEED to create an account here yet (didnt have ant questions)
I swear to God that I spent at least 30 hours this month READING lots of threads and posts here.
Finally I decide to join and voila...I can only post in the newbie thread ...which I am sure is ignored by most elites ...while being closely followed by UNFRIENDLY people who like to flame/argue/say that it's already been asked.

2.Also the 5 post rule is BS ..motivates ppl to post: "yada yad ...this is my 3rd post yey !"

3.BITCOIN VETERANS and non-noobs...OPEN YOUR EYES AND MIND FFS ...if you dont become the friendliest bunch in the world ASAP you can quickly go shove all the BTC's you have up yours arses ...because YOU NEED MILLIONS of noobs for BTC to even survive ....and hundreds of millions of noobs to make it a viable real international currency....

however if you decide to be too smart, cocky and important for us noobs...well go ahead and wait for your BTC value drop ..

PEOPLE WHO WANT TO BUY A CURRENCY AND SPEND IT FEEL THEY DESERVE TOTAL RESPECT ...and not the "oh my another noob who just came here" cold shoulder....

Its good to learn from what is posted before to start a repetitive thread. Is what every forum have to do.

Why do people who are not noobs hang out here just to post animated gifs telling the noobs to STFU? What exactly do they think they are accomplishing?

Seems like a strange place.

I had to Google why I could not reply here and NOW I know I need to log 4 hours reading first, or post to newbie threads. But this forum sure appears to be THE place for discussing bitcoin.

Thanks for proving this setup doesn't stop retards, trolls and illiterate morons from posting here, all in one post.  Good jerb.  *plonk*

I wont escrow with Qweedo, john the dog gets my business and so will every other person i see asking about escrow.

Qweedo = dick 

Great I called your granny and got her for 5 mill already. Hows your escrow service going........fail fail fail

That must be why no one respects you.

Agreed, but this type of filtering is getting more and more popular with big forums... I'm getting used to it :\

Bitcointalk needs to be more noob friendly!

Yes, please! No doubt about that.
But so what? Isn't that always and everywhere at any time the case with everything?
Yes so as well.

But keep in mind:
Whenever a noob annoys you then it's you how is annoyed, thus do something about it.
Change your attitude! Just because it is your fault there is no reason to blame anybody else, not even a noob.

When an overly answered question pops by and your not in the mood to answer ... you shouldn't have read it in first place, should you?
You could search for a link with an appropriate answer though and post it, but only if it makes you fell better.
Keep in mind not to argue whilst being pissed off and that's all about it.

Whilst the world continues to turn let it become better, maybe by not making it worse.

qweedo = DICK  You suck qweedo! You should be tagged as a zero your defiantly not a hero.... booo booo boo qweedo sucks hiss boo.

I will not trade with qweedo for PP or anything else ever. don't ask qweedo. go fuck yourself and leave the new guys alone. New guys link to this when he talks shit.   

 

Well, tea's a good start if it has a few additives. 

Let's try this again. Hi, I'm mootinator. I'm aware of how the world works. While I'm locked in this noob piece of forum, I'll muse about how it would be nice if it were a better place, and others will respond ot that by telling me to shut up and keep my head down. Honestly, those people will probably survive longer when the fascists take over. Then we can have tea.
