Some how, no be only our newbies Dem still no know some of these tins but even some of our senior men Dem fit no really no how to make correct quality post.

Useful information for Nigerian newbies wey as a member of our forum and nija local board u suppose no. these tins Dem go help you a long wey, to tay improve your post quality well, come make you dey amongst the top posters and also give you correct reputation for we local board and forum at large.
These ones na topics dem wey some of our correct naija board people Dem don write to tay guide we people on how to post well and not only to post well, but also to use correct English or pidgin as the case may be. we no say our local board dey accept two language wey be PIDGIN AND ENGLISH and dis one don be debate over d years even before Dem finally give us our own local board. English na general language for we country and many schools no dey allow Dem student to dey speck this pidgin at all. but we no fit leave pidgin as na him we Tay grow. na dat wan be watin Dem dey call mother language. dis language na be d first language wey every naija pikin dey understand as small pikin, before him go enter school come learn the English wey we dey speak today.
As we dey speak this pidgin, make we still understand say pidgin no just be any how language as e sef still get pattern of speech and writing. normally, some people go say pidgin no get one particular way of writing and many African countries wey dey speak am, if u listen you go hear many style wey Dem too still dey use.
pidgin dey easy to speak but when e come reach to write am, many of us no understand that one. this matter fit still affect our post. if you write better post for pidgin and you no Sabi d coco people Dem fit no understand watin you de write and Dem go pass your post as Dem no fit read am.
HOW I FIT TAKE WRITE BETTER PIDGIN ENGLISH .
Since pidgin no dey compulsory for we local board, I go say if you no Sabi write for pidgin make you just continue your post for English and avoid mixing pidgin with English. dis one fit create more problem for your readers Dem. if you must write for pidgin, then you supposed know the correct way Dem tay dey write am.

I DEY NEW TO THE FORUM, WATIN I SUPPOSE DEY POST.
yes, dis one na another correct question wey supposed dey the mind of every new person for we forum. d forum na one wonderful place, wey you fit learn and get correct update for anything wey concern Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, market, sport and even global economy. but e no be like our normal Facebook or social media wey we fit just post anyhow thing as you fit enter trouble.As new person, your first concern na to learn all these different thing wey Dem dey post, read all the rules (
unofficial rule of Bitcointalk) and understand how everything take dey work. the best way to take learn watin to post, na to dey observe from other members dem wey don tay and get correct reputation. this na one correct method wey some senior men go tell you say Dem tay adapt the forum and con still rank up. this one no mean say you go dey copy den style or anything, but you go use am take learn. every body get Dem unique posting style for d forum and Na e make am dey easy to detect when person buy account or hack another user account. so try develop you own, no copy person own. ones you don learn how to post and watin you go post, you go notice say you self dey improve and fit dey relate with some other correct post for forum.
WHERE TO POST? Another thing wey some people dey find problem again na where to post. if you look the forum well, you go see say each board or child board get names and these name dey tell you watin each of Dem be and d kind post wey you fit see for there. when you create post, first you go need to know the important point for inside the post. these points, na e go let you know where you fit post am.
for example, I write post, concerning issue of login for forum.This idea don already tell me say na
META board na I go post this thing. Again,
I write post on how to create quality post for beginners. yes this one concern the forum, but you go come need to ask yourself if na the forum or na for newbies na you create this post. since we get board for
BEGINNERS AND HELP, dat one go be the correct board for your post.
somany times, you go see some of our local member Dem de post issue wey relate to we countri for general board or for economic board. dis one no clear at all. some sef no really know how to hide fowl yansh and dem go dey fall our hand for outside we local board. this one no clear. if you get anything wey you wan discuss concerning we countri abeg try dey post am of here. na e make am we get local board.make we all learn and start to create quality post today.
ones you don understand which board to post, you go see say e go come dey easier for you to navigate the forum and understand every section and board Dem.
e get the tin wey I also want make we still know as members of we local board and if you check the rule wey Igebotz write for e
thread, you go see say e sef na correct man. over d time wey I don spend for dis forum, I dey see how so many members dey complain say Dem de insult Dem or use mouth take finish Dem post for out side the localboard. yes even me don experience am and you know why you no supposed to dey reason am?
This forum na place, with many people from all over the world. every body get different perspective and idea of many things. you no expect everyone to always agree with your point all the time or give you merit. when you see somebody dey talk ill of your reply, post or comment and you know say you dey right or no too dey sure, the best thing na to learn and no too dey quick to reply. if watin e dey talk dey truth, tell am thank you appreciate and commot from that place. no go dey let Dem put eye for your account or come do watin go lead Dem to tag your account. ones dem dey talk watin no correct, if you understand am pass Dem. you fit follow Dem talk but if you no know just rest.
if Dem dey curse you no rush dey throw words as e fit Damage your reputation for forum. other people go surely support you if you dey right no need to come dey create fight.
dis issues, dey common for forum and we local board. I don see so many situations wey men go dey argue watin no reach to argue and small small e don turn quarrel. abeg make we dey show good example and maintain correct
discipline for here as these white people Dem dey strict. admin dey watch us, so if we dey always make fights for we Localboard, Dem no go dey answer us.
WATIN BE OFF TOPIC AND WHERE I FIT POST AM I no say somany new members go don dey see dis off topic well well and come de ask Dem sef say how I go tay know say na off topic post I dey create. well, off topic no get one definition. off topic na post wey no fit into any board. that one mean say d topic no concern anything wey we suppose dey discuss for forum but you just feel like say you wan create am as thread. yes e get so many matter wey we de like discuss no be everytime or everything be money. things dey outside those ones but Dem no too dey necessary for we forum na e make we get
off topic board for general forum and some local boards. for now, we local board never get this sub board and we sef don request for am but still no response from admin Dem. As at last year, d rate of this off topic post come too much and e con turn to spam as person no fit see better topic talk put for we local board. All these kind low quality post no good at all. as e dey make we board dey somehow for everyone. make we try dey avoid all these kind post wey be off topic and as I explain am, no be say Dem no get use but here no be Facebook. so we suppose dey limit all those kind topic for forum.
so far, I don list all these many points wey I think say go help improve our posting for local board and forum at large. this campaign originally na 1miau idea co supported by Gazetabitcoin. I don try make sure say I chuck mouth put for those matter Dem wey I don come across for we local board well well. Abeg make We try dey create good post as e go help us well as we dey grow for rank until we don commot from forum.

Campaign to improve posting quality for local boardsAlso read quote from 1miau on quality posting:
Providing a good posting quality is essential to keep Bitcointalk’s role as an important source of Bitcoin-related content, with hopefully some new people signing up here and of course, established members staying active and not leaving Bitcointalk.
Since Merit is not limited to prevent spammers from joining Bounty Campaigns, Merit was also introduced to encourage more interesting content and Merit Sources are advised to facilitate and reward good content, while discouraging bad, uninteresting or flawed posts such like Shitposts.
I’ve tried to incentivize a good posting quality in our German local board by my 1miau Merit criteria, where I’ve outlined points resulting in Merits and points making it much less likely to receive some Merits.
