Topic: It's better to provide Quality and not Quantity... (Read 378 times)

Well, this is a fact that everyone should make sure to remember. But because this is a discussion forum, sometimes our activeness in interacting and being involved in a discussion is also an important point. Because we are not here only to make newspapers that publish useful news. But we are also here to share views and insights regarding a problem.

So both quantity and quality are equally important. I prefer everything to proceed in a balanced, natural and normal way. But I was really impressed with your advice. And I really have to admit that this advice really needs to be digested and utilized well by beginners. Sometimes there are even those who are not beginners but forget these important points. So your advice can also be a reminder for those who are not beginners here too.

In my country you get something like "e shock you (are you surprised?)". It should be like you seeing such for the first time in this Forum. For someone who has 9 post like you pointed out only signify that this user has been here for long, and he's just using this new account to start up something new, if not how did he know we all have to do these things he mentioned? These advise he gave are just ok but can it be put to use by many? Some of these new members really need to read this post by the OP and try to utilize it.

I don't think so.
There are some beginners who tend to be passive in the forum (rarely post) although he/she was already in the forum for a long time.
I think you're one of the examples, you only made 5 posts in 2018 (in the year you created this account) and you never posted anything in 2019-2022. You just became active again this year (2023). Why you don't have the intention to be active in posting? 

Have you proven it? I think it should be proven first before you advice it to others!
To have quality posts, you need to have good knowledge. It means you need focus in learning if you are the beginners. It is because the knowledge can be acquired through learning from many sources. If you focus on teaching others, you will fail to acquire knowledge through learning process.

Anyway, quality + quantity is better than focus on quality only.

Yes. That's right, at least what will be conveyed is constructive and at least has direction and meaning and is useful for yourself and others. Besides, why should it be so long when the content is empty and meaningless, it would be better to be short, concise, clear and not confusing. Oh yes, I also still need to learn a lot and I realize that there is still sky above the sky.

In many aspects, quality always comes first and takes precedence over quantity. Likewise with making posts on this forum. You can be sure that posts that will be more appreciated and useful for many people are quality posts. Because 1 quality post will definitely be more valuable than 20 posts that are not quality. So in this case it is clear that quality is more important than quantity. However, it would be even better if you could make more posts but still have quality. Because this will definitely have a very good impact on this forum and its members.

Therefore, as fellow beginners, we must put more effort into developing the knowledge we have, so that we can contribute better to this forum. Because in this forum we all discuss, of course when discussing, all members who want to take part in the discussion must have knowledge about the discussion being discussed. That way the discussions that take place will be of higher quality.

This is the same as "How to plagiarize without getting banned (but actually got banned)" and "How to earn 1000 merits within a month (current meri count: 0)". This is clearly an alt account and the main account is banned since the OP account is inactive for a long time and just woke up from inactivity. Not all the time it needs to be quality because some discussions need more information or lengthy discussion before it is learned by someone.

However, it also depends on the topic itself that it sometimes requires a lengthy discussion so that all the important ideas will not be missed. But these type of topics are just rare to be seen in the forum, as mostly we need brief and precise post so that the reader will easily get the main point. Yes, its quality over quantity, but newbies seem to have hard time understanding it because they don't even know how to construct a quality post in the first place knowing their crypto knowledge is still limited.

However, everything will be learned in time. So we just need to stretch a little patience and still appreciate their lengthy post as long as its helpful in the forum.

Better to have a quality post than a lengthy boring quantity post, in fact it bores me when I see very long posts, especially when the content is very poor. I'd rather have a post not to be too long and straight to the point, it'll be easier to assimilate, and the reader can easily make contributions without breaking too much sweat.

If a quality post has to be long, then let it have a good reason to be so, perhaps to teach something meaningful. A forum like this where we have too many topics to choose from, should have topics and conversations that are quality and not too long, so that participants in the discussion will still be energized when they leave the thread.

My guess is - ban evasion:

It could be that there was a time in the forum when length of post determined the quality of post. Even when we all agree that the length of post does not determine the quality of post, the length of post has a great connection to the quality post. Even the campaign managers acknowledge this in their rules.

Why was the niggy nuked. Plagerism or spamming, maybe I would want to know

"Buddy" is already gone. Won't be coming back. At least, not with this account.

I saw some of your replies on the board service to apply, did you get distracted there? I don't find even in any local, that emoticons and a little joke in the thread are natural, I just focus on the important points that are discussed, imagine if it's too standard and there is no interaction, I think it's less fun and even looks like an article fight.  My assumption is that the contributors are very good at responding and ranking with their activities already symbolizing professionalism, if the same media and useful for you, try to get used to writing first from what you like, for me quality will be formed by itself with a record of speaking according to a topic and according to the discussion, of course later you will get used to it. If you think so that's your right, but if you want to improve your writing and way of thinking of course you can make better threads or mingle with other people on any board, if your language can be understood and respectful, I'm sure everyone will be very happy to invite you to learn together on this forum.

Oh buddy, it took you so long to post this thread because you have created your account in 2018 and you have posted this thread in final quarter of 2023. Why you are still a newbie even after knowing about this forum since 2018? I mean anyone could learn and improve their posting in that long duration but you hardly have 12 posts and in this thread you're trying to guide other newbies about the style of posting.

Just be a real person buddy and start making some good posts yourself and get ranked to a higher level before creating threads like this because such threads can misguide others as you haven't reached any good rank level yourself and you're trying to teach others about it.

Sometimes quality matter a lot but sometimes quantity doesn't mean that posts are low in quality and are posted only to increase the post count of a members. Every member has their own posting style and if we keep that in mind then some members tend to make more posts than others but those posts are good in quality while other members make less number of posts but those posts lack quality in them.

I must say that the more a member contributes the better response and appreciation he/she gets from the other members of the forum. A member who makes 10 good and helpful posts contributes more to the community than a member you posts 2 good and helpful posts.

OP, aren't you wrong with the advice you gave while your account is a newbie lol


hi @itorai, glad you are on this forum, I see that most of the posts you make have few words, try to provide more than 200 or 300 words (the more the better) in each of your posts because the posts are Quality can be seen from how many words are given, you must be able to improve your literacy every day, I hope you don't give up easily in continuing to improve the quality of your posts every day, here we all learn from each other.

What are you doing, actually? Because you are doing the same things that you want to prevent others from doing. I still feel you need to learn a lot of things before teaching others. Because you are still a newbie and you are trying to teach other newbies. That's not a good practice at all. I will advise all newbies: before creating a thread, just make sure it's necessary and meaningful. You aren't maintaining the quality that you are talking about. So please spend more time on the forum and learn before advising others.

You have valid points, mate. All these points you highlighted are very useful when you really want to make a quality contribution to this forum, and when you are able to follow these tips you mentioned, you will gain more knowledge in the forum and you will grow fast in the forum with quality posts.

I am sorry to say OP, but you are supposed to be using these tips you mentioned to make yourself a quality poster in this forum because if you have the knowledge you mentioned, you could have been a member or junior member of this forum; nevertheless, it is also a quality post. Keep learning and keep posting quality posts.

The essence of creating an educative and interactive forum is to encourage each member to come up with a good and quality post so that the other members may benefit and learn valuable ideas from it.  This will only happen if all members will take their time to research first and assess the information that they have acquired whether it could be good and beneficial to others or it could create a confusion until others decide to lose interest and leave the forum.

It should be quality over quantity. It's useless to see a parade of posts where the contents are just low and sometimes off topic, than to create a powerful post that contains a very valuable and helpful idea that will encourage other members to do the same.

Release a lot of pressure and start talking about anything without needing to make yourself like someone else. You are given the right to freedom of opinion but keep it in an on-topic context and do not violate existing rules. What's more, you don't need to be shy about one or two high-reputation users even if they seem scary to you. Don't just agree and agree with many other people's opinions, but develop your ability to argue as long as it is correct regardless of who you are talking to.

This is actually funny.  OP wrote a new topic hoping they will get attention and Merits but F ed up their reputation entirely instead.

-----

I have lurked the forum for a long time before joining and I knew some stuff many new members do not.  So it is not weird to give advice as a new member though it does seem suspicious at first sight.

-----

It is not being hostile on Newbies sharing thoughts.  OP made a topic with a reason and it is showing.  They wanted attention and / or Merits.  They received the negative attention instead.  I only do not understand why even make this kind of post.  It is weird to post such things on a simple Forum.  Imagine you had a family group on Whatsapp and all of a sudden some body writes a wall of text about how important it is to write quality messages in the group chat over quantity.

Because after all Bitcoin Talk is just that.  A board where the Bitcoin community can have an uncensored chat.  Which makes it weird to write topics as if we were some secret society accepting through rituals only or pages of a poets book instead of a simple conversational board.

And there are members here who write some helpful topics in such a beautiful way.  As if they were really writing some poetic pages of a book.  But then there are people like OP who are treating us all like some Gods or cult which is a different story.

This really helps me in getting to know this forum, I always learn and continue to learn to understand the procedures for discussing here, as a beginner I always listen to what seniors say, sometimes I make mistakes in implementation, but I always correct
