Not just here in the forum, reading is encompassing to any field in life we find ourselves, that for we to be able to be equiped with the know-how-knowledge to be in the lead we have to read extensively and that's how we improve in quality and output.
Some forum members are so eager to post than spending much time to read and assimilate the context of the topic where it's driving at, therefore they end up making contributions that's out of context to the content of the post. It's better to avoid replying a topic you don't understand so not to make a fool out of yourself. For anyone to be a good writer both in the forum and anywhere else you must give yourself to reading it could be articles, newspapers, or joining a reading club etc, all of these could help improve your quality.

Dos and don'ts:
When engaging in discussions on forums, the simple thing to note is that the content of the discussion in it is not the title of the post, because when someone understands the discussion they will easily understand what needs to be discussed. Forcing discussions without knowledge will lead to incompetence and often people force discussions in this style and in the end it seems that we are not knowledgeable.- Do so only if you understand what is being discussed and you have the knowledge and ability to continue the discussion with some constructive advice.
- Don't do it if you don't understand and don't add anything constructive to the discussion because in the end your reply will only be seen as forced, worse if it's spam or off topic.
That's a mistake made by most people, both beginners and people who have been on forums for a long time, because they only read the title and don't study the discussion in it, so that the ongoing discussion is no longer constructive and out of substance as the ongoing discussion.
Newbies usually quote posts they are replying on and they do pyramid, nested quotes too. They must learn to trim quotes, posts to what they want to discuss.
Pyramid quoting is just laziness and I don't like to see it. The only thing that makes me even angrier is when I see someone quoting the OP on page #7 only to write two sentences that he agrees with what is discussed there. It's completely unnecessary and inappropriate. If I was strict, I would place such people on ignore if I see them do that regularly. There is only one way where multi-quoting is justifiable, and that's for those who use a phone to post on the forum. Anyone who has tried knows that editing and working with multiple quotes on a smartphone is a nightmare. But there is a solution for that as well. Instead of doing pyramid quoting, simply put @'username' and say what you wanted to say.
We just make sure that what we write here have sense since we cannot add something useful if we just post nonsense things or spread some hate to one another.
I don't know what you mean. Do you think I'm spreading hate? Does leaving posts out of sync between title and content make a better forum? Is reminding that the wrong thing?
Bitcointalk is a broad community where bitcoin technologies and informations are been discussed, so what I observed in Bitcointalk is that for me to go further I have to read what others has written properly and make my contributions to where I understand a discussion. Another thing I notice that contributes to achieving our goals easily here is by making a good sentence with punctuation marks where necessary and correct spellings because good sentence will make a reader to understand our point of view properly, observation plays a major role in achieving our goals here because when you observe some you feel thats not well explained you can ask question for more explanation or you may even quite the person on the contrary that's if you know it , seriousness is another way of making our goals to be fulfilled, I wish to be like other member who has achieve some goals in this forum.
I don't know what you mean. I think the post title and content are out of sync. I think everyone needs to write well, and that's a good way of communicating. But what exactly is the goal you want to achieve? Your post has the title " Goal Achievement ". But the content is about good writing
In terms of contribution, I think one way to convey a contribution is with good writing. Yes, I agree with you, but the content of the text is more important. Good writing but has no value is nonsense
We just make sure that what we write here have sense since we cannot add something useful if we just post nonsense things or spread some hate to one another. So much better if we can share information that can help other then post it since its really good to see that we can help newbies since this is how we can grow this community. And I believe this is the use of forum for us to gather information and share, If we see something not worth it of our time then its better to ignore and continue what important matters than can help out growth.

But please don't write in bold or colored/capital letters. It really isn't necessary and makes a post stick out unnecessarily.
Bolding, capitalizing and coloring all texts are bad and distract concentration of readers from the main discussions.Quote

[GUIDE] A good post/reply and formatting

I can see that you are also new here, welcome aboard. But please don't write in bold or colored/capital letters. It really isn't necessary and makes a post stick out unnecessarily. I could have done that to this point as well. Even though I don't have a mentor, sometimes I always pay attention to the high ranks in writing. That could be my guide to adapting. Even though I know I won't be able to match the writing style, I try to be myself by imitating what's good here.

Having someone whom you look upto in the bitcointalk forum is very good,atleast it will help you know how to improve in your personal writings.It is good to have a mentor because everyone who wants to grow financially or otherwise must have someone whom he wants to be like,and it is that inner motivation to be like that person that will catapult you into being the best version of yourself.

That's not wrong and maybe we have to do a lot, it's because we can make this forum better with quality writing. It's not short, it takes time to make our writing good and new members should be able to do that plus read the rules that have been written on each board.
Well done on this realisation. I've always admired to write in his off some top users on this forum for example Ratimov fillippone, GazetaBitcoin and some others . They write so well that you'd think you're reading some Forbes article.
I am still learning to write as good as them and will be glad of I can achieve that. There's just so much learn on this forum aside Bitcoin.

It is important to read before you try to correct other people's posts and the basis of the forum is a discussion where everyone needs knowledge to continue an interesting discussion. When you understand what is discussed, it will give birth to knowledge that can be shared with others.- Do so only if you understand what is being discussed and you have the knowledge and ability to continue the discussion with some constructive advice.
- Don't do it if you don't understand and don't add anything constructive to the discussion because in the end your reply will only be seen as forced, worse if it's spam or off topic.

Correct writing has clear punctuation such as the placement of periods or commas and other problems when people try to write something that is not from their mother tongue will struggle a bit. Further learning is needed so that we can write easily and can be understood by others, when we are serious about reading more things then the knowledge to write will be even better.When we don't stop at one point it will lead to other knowledge and what needs to be multiplied is reading so that we are more in control and most importantly every time we try to discuss we know the problem and don't force yourself to respond to something you don't understand because it will make us wrong in giving answers.
Bitcointalk doesn't cover all you need to know about Bitcoin it just provide you with surface information, Surface information because the knowledge about Bitcoin is so broad that it will get too bored if everything get discussed in detail on the forum. That is where other communities as well as search engines come into play to provide more information and in-depth information respectively. I see the forum as an awareness platform, where a bitcoiner gets the basics and then develop on it.

Actually, it's not just like this.Indeed, clarity in making sentences in English is needed so that it is easily understood by all members here. However, this is not absolute because not everyone can really speak this global language. As long as you can still understand it, it really isn't that big of a problem, as long as you really understand it well. And you don't need to worry because currently there are several applications or websites that can help anyone improve their writing, right?
what's more important is how the contribution of our post here, it should be, this should be:
- Informative
- On-topic (not off-topic)
- No Plagiarism, this is very important, be aware of all forms of plagiarism
and several other things related to the quality of posts.
So, keep up the good work here and always try your good efforts. Everyone is always learning right here.

I hope you are ready to also sacrifice your time and energy to keep trying even when you feel your aren't getting it right? do not forget to also preview your write up before posting as some members have advised you so that you don't go off point.
It takes time to adjust with any forum or community. This forum has its own way of operating and it has a community full of people who like to talk about cryptocurrency and bitcoin. So if you have knowledge about bitcoin and blockchain or anything related to cryptocurrency you don't need much time to adjust. Op you also need to understand that no one became better here in a day rather it took some members weeks, months and some years. I hope you are ready to also sacrifice your time and energy to keep trying even when you feel your aren't getting it right? do not forget to also preview your write up before posting as some members have advised you so that you don't go off point.
I think OP has a clear vision about how the forum works and how to use a forum. It is just a matter of time he will understand how bitcoin and blockchain work. Best of luck OP.
