Every one has to start somewhere and everything begins from zero so same applies here as well. As one learns and grow same thing on this forum as well you will grow to different levels and become expert after some time and it is a journey which should be enjoyed the best.

yes you are right, i am also a newbie and don't know anything but trying my best....

Haha, there're always newbies like you and me in this community, just same as there must be many kids in this world.  


As far as I know, Merit is kind of rewarding point used in this forum for your quality content, and "you can get merit by making good posts and gift it to other when you think they made a good post." You and read more about it in this pinned article.

Meanwhile, Bounty is rewarding tokens offered by startups when you participate their marketing campaigns like: translation, social network, signature, etc. For further, you can find somewhere else in this forum. Maybe, I'll try to find some proper links for easy tracking from here.

Yes sometimes it is true as it is. But we as a newbie should be more clever in making quality posts so that seniors can provide benefits for us newbie. The key to success is patience and perseverance in living it

Newbies shouldn't be sad,because of lack of experience or knowledge in the field of cryptocurrency. All the big guys here, were once a newbie and needed to climb to where they are now. Instead of been sad, use it as learning experience.

There's nothing we can do anything about it all you have to do is improve your learning and writing skills and probly your communication skills. Everyone has some skill set and we should be knowledgeable enough to help others about Bitcoin. You can try reading different kind of story books and novels or even better learn about Bitcoin documentation you can try this link.http://lopp.net/bitcoin.html try to learn as much as you can and do not expect merits from anyone.those are just surprise gifts you will get them once you prove your skills.

There is nothing complicated about navigating this forum. All newbies, please read this pinned post as well as all the posts it links to. It should answer all your questions. Your posts will not be deleted, nor will your accounts be banned, without good reason as clearly spelled out in the rules. The rules are only unclear until you take the time to read them.

Its no doubt a daunting task for a newbie to grow through the bitcointalk ranks unhurt. It takes education, patience and dedication. It takes time and following basic rules. Most of all, not posting irrelevant things, especially one or two words posts. But with time and commitment, newbies will adapt as others.

I don't know much about the Merits and Bounties that many of you are talking about. I would think most Newbies are looking for answers and have no idea about the Merit and Bounty systems. The longer we're in the forum the more we will learn how to uses the rules. Because I do something wrong shouldn't mean that my post gets yanked or banned from the system. Admonishment from you senior members would be better received and I don't mean ridicule.
I have posted here and have as of yet, not received help on my question. What is the purpose of this forum? For the senior members to spout their supremacy and gather as "The Good Ole Boys" and embarrass the Newbie's?

Yes agree with you...

At the very top of this beginners and help section there is a pinned post by Lauda titled something like "Newbies, read first." That post contains all kinds of links to more extensive information on things you need to know like the rules of this forum, how to rank up and how to earn merit, not to mention some links to help you get started furthering your education about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.

I just read through that post again, and even though I've been here five years I learned some things. It's a great post for everyone to review at least once a year.

I have to wonder, based on the repeated questions, do any newbies actually read that post? If you haven't already, can you please, please, please, take the time to read and study it. It will help everyone, and might even cure your forum newbie blues.

I really do enjoy engaging with newbies. I'm excited about cryptocurrencies and eager to share my knowledge with people just getting started. I know I'm not alone in this.

However, I'm starting to get burned out on seeing the same parade of poorly written questions such as "How do I get merit?", "How can I get into a signature campaign as soon as possible?", "How much can I earn in bounties?", etc. Those questions and more are answered in the "Newbies, read first" thread or in one of the many links it contains.

It would be so much more fun to deal with intelligent follow up questions from people who have read up on the basics and are ready for the next step. If you can ask those questions, I'm sure you'll get as much discussion and engagement as you'll want from senior, hero, and legendary members.

Totally agree with you.

Carefully read the rules of the forum and there will be no problems on the forum.
But what about the merit, I agree, it is very difficult for beginners to get it, so there is no way to earn it.

You are right. Every new member in any community like bitcointalk all newbie members experienced sadness but that doesn't mean that newbie won't gain experience. Always thinking possible things will help newbies on their journey.

Thanks for all the information, this is really good for beginners like me. I hope this bitointalk forum can help the beginners. And for seniors are expected to continue to provide information.

Actually, this forum is created for helping each other and give innovative, encouraging information about cryptocurrency community to everyone. You should do research and follow the rules and regulation on this forum for avoiding deleted post.

Fear is There anymore for a newbie like me because it has experienced some post that have been deleted by moderator i hope to pass a safe level

Nice point! Such kind of little ignorance helps us to reduce the feeling of burden to please other guys, and to focus on main goal: learning. Confessedly, I apply that way of thinking whenever I find myself being stuck, both in groups and in daily life.

Ahha, everything is just relative. Newbies in a community may be veterans in other groups or even in real life. Why bother too much?

Just similar to the situation when a child is learning to walk while old men around have done and understood everything thoroughly since many decades before. We want and still have to grow no matter what, right? 

Hi friend, I feel the same feelings with you and most beginners unfortunately can not go on these terms because their enthusiasm is breaking. You want to write about a topic but it's written dozens of times before. it is very difficult to produce something new. but if you develop yourself in technical matters and in the field of information, you can also rise here. otherwise it is very likely that you will be a Jr member.

Rank is not everything.  Please be mindful that there are newbies on here who have bitcoins that are older than some of the members.  Don't assume that just because somebody has the rank of newbie or jr or whatever, that they don't have much to contribute.
