Topic: Newbie here (Read 395 times)

maybe OP is still quite confused with the use of the forum. or maybe s/he doesn't have enough interest in the discussion topics in the forum.
you can see from him creating an account and then making this post, that s/he doesn't come back to get anything that other members have directed.
it's not something strange, we often see things like this in the forum. come to make a thread then leave. maybe will come back after a few weeks, months, or years later. then repeat their questions.

The OP is inactive. And this topic was not created because of interest in the forum. Or if we assume that those few days before its creation were difficult reading, and after he received many recommendations, he decided to run away altogether, since for some people reading these days is a huge effort.
Newbies have incorrect information that this forum is "about earnings." But when they find out that they will be able to "earn" in ~ a year, then all motivation and excitement disappear instantly.
Let's try to ask the moderators to close the topic.

Eish! You just had to go and call him out, didn't you? .. I was really beginning to miss the "I'm new here,.. Newbie, please help" threads that was so plentiful in the B&H boards and began to wonder if they had either gotten tired of spamming or had learned that we know that some of them are not so new as they claim but then I saw this one. It's kind of funny how a noob with literally no posts will still come in and create a thread to indicate his/her newness like we're blind or something?
 Another thing that irks me is that some of them after providing them with guidelines on how to operate here (like they don't know), they won't bother to follow the thread up or lock it up, they'd just leave it unattended to and then tomorrow, someone "new" again will come up with another thread!

Sadly my question hasn't been asked 😟  Mate, is it possible for a sanction to be removed? I recall earlier this year a statement I pasted here was tagged and a sanction was flagged(As a newbie) pardon are meant to be allowed or warnings are meant to be made. I know rules are meant to be followed but take it easy on newbies

Hi antsea88,

Welcome to the Bitcointalk forums, I hope you will get all the help or information you needed. As I ask from every newbie who makes this thread, what were your purpose of joining this forum? You spent time to create an account, I mean you might have a question or two in your mind that you wanted to ask or you just thought let's make an account and say Hi?

Really curious to know this.

Nobody is going to do that to you if you had asked a question or introduced yourself when you firwt got registered since they understand that you are asking a relevant question people only complain about the newbies who got registered today and they start teaching other members when they are supposed to be learning. Feel free to have a good conversation with everyone but always do the right things and ask the right questions when necessary but avoiding repeating questions when there is an existing thread for it.

It seems that many new members are joining lately. Hopefully following a good timing, although it is always a good time to join the Bitcointalk community

In general most veteran members are very patient and the community in general is newbie-friendly. Just follow the rules and enjoy while learning.

In addition, if you are not native English speaker you can find your local board by scrolling down in the home page.

No mate, this forum members have no time for that; they focus on the main target and the question that are been asked just to make sure that there is a reliable solution to the problem. And the forum members do always welcome new members and they do give them the right advice and the information they will need to avoid violating any of the forum rules, and also how to go about the forum.

I was thinking I'd be savaged if I did this when I first joined here too

Welcome to the forum, most of your essential readings are already pinned on each board especially here in Beginners & help and recommend too in the meta board, I guess its good too if you have a specific journey you would like to hop in into the crypto space so members will give you an advice what are the things you need to your path.

I'll quote.



If the OP asks for advice, I advise him to follow the quote and read the entire thread to understand where he came to and that there are different people here. Not everyone will advise from thread to thread what has already been written a thousand times, but will simply take note of this account.
OP, the opposite question, what difficulties do you encounter when surfing the forum?

I have only one advice for you.

Newbies - Read before posting. It's is a topic with many helpful information for newbies, but I emphasize that the topic title is what you as a newbie, needs to do. Yes, it's "Read before posting".

As a newbie, it's important thing to do. Later, when you are no longer a newbie, it is still important because if you don't read, you can not get what a topic is about, the flow of discussion, and if you only make your post but don't care what other posters discussed previously, your post will be not helpful.

You are highly welcome to the best bitcoin forum you will ever see, who ever introduced you to this forum have done added a great impact to your life that if you are really here to know about crypto and bitcoin investment. You will learn so much in this forum and probably if you are truly serious about bitcoin and also contribute to the forum  with your skills and ideas you can also earn in the forum too so you see it like killing 2 birds with one stone.

I still remember when I joined this forum and alot of people where telling I need to make valuable contribution to the forum and tried it and it really paying off, though at first I find it difficult but you know when you truly want to learn about something you just keep trying and I can how much I have grown since then. So you have to put in alot of work too, to need to make research, read alot in the forum, ask questions where you seem lost and engage in reasonable conversations, with that I think you will see how you will grow.

Once again you are welcome to bitcointalk, and I will try to keep an eye on you too to see how active you are and how serious you take this forum.

Welcome to the Bitcoin forum as a newbie. You can post on your local board to learn more about bitcoin and bitcoin forums. You can learn more if you are active on your local board and your learning will be much easier.

But if you start learning about bitcoins and bitcoin forums regularly from active and then you can definitely go ahead. No one learns everything at once, everyone has to learn slowly. To earn merit here, you need to create good enough quality posts, create posts that someone else can learn from, and in a word, create informative posts.

If you can earn merit by your good quality posts then you will be able to change your rank. Whenever you can build a good rank you can enter a campaign and earn money. But in the end I would say never think about scamming on bitcoin forums if you think about scamming but you won't last long on this forum.

Welcome onboard

Welcome OP, you can take your time to read through the link provided above for your perusal. I believe all you need to know about this great platform can be captured in the link already provided  by _act_ . However,  I would want you to know this that the forum frowns at AI generated content and plagiarism. If you must copy from anywhere, you must quote or reference the author of that post you copied to avoid being tagged or banned. Do well to always make original post of yours not not AI generated content which is cheating and misleading. If you are caught, you stand the chances of being banned or tagged for contravening the platform standards.  You just have to be yourself and concentrate on what you know you can do best to better contribute to the platform and her members.
