I wanted to create a separate topic for this warning but since you have added many security precautions I would like to add another one. A few days ago I was searching for my account on Google and I found that there are multiple mirror sites available on the internet which are exactly similar to everything like bitcointalk including little similarities in the domain name. So one should make sure that he is logging in on a genuine website by making sure (bitcointalk.org) web address in the address bar. If someone is trying to log in to those mirror sites then it is likely that he will lose his account and scammers will sell it for profits. One should always bookmark the original site address without going through the Google search results.
Thank you and now I know that bitcointalk.org can be a victim of phishing.

You posted some good advices and it may be helpful for newbies. I just want to ask about 2nd your suggestion "Read first DT ( Defult Trust) member's post to avoid get negative trust or loss your account". What do you exactly mean? OK, I opened first post of DT member Lauda for example, here it is:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/lauda-101872 I'm not sure how it can help to avoid getting negative trust. And DT members can't ban accounts, unless they are mods.
And 4th suggestion. You're right that we aren't allowed to post referral links, but you can have ref links in your signature.

Exactly I want to mean that most of negetive trust I have seen all given by DT member's.  That's why I mention it. If some one got negetive trust it's bad reputation for him. I appreciate your comment . I have been edit my post and include moderator. Thanks

In regards to your information is it the best way that you stake your BTC Address with a signed Message Here or for german Users Here to avoid Account hacking.
With this Address Posting can you proof that you the right account owner and you can become the account back after a hack when you use this stake posting with this Guide.

Yes you can post your address but it's not enough for recover your account. Because once your account hack , hacker can edit your address with his own address. At first I will suggest hide your email address. Next setup your security question and use 2FA for your mail. Use strong password and change it at least monthly. Don't use same password that you use another application or website. Hope you can prevent hacking.

Thanks for your information. We should double check address bar once we login on Bitcointalk account to avoid hack. Not only that, we should check every address bar once we login wallet or exchange. You remind the right point. Thanks again.

Kudos!

Repeated or not, sometimes crucial rule and information can never be over emphasis.

The more it is repeated the harder is is for people to miss it,
especially a forum like this where information can be so segregated.

A have a request for you:

- Stop with this unnecessary text styling. This font size makes it hard for me to read your post. No one here is blind.
- Stop with this repeated posts. This is the 4rd post I see this week that says basically the same thing you are saying here.

Thanks, I will edit it now.

Just try to remind.
I have joined on Bitcointalk almost one month. Within this short time I have seen 90% newbie member making spamming and shitpost. Just look like they come to bitcointalk only for earn money from here. Yes you can earn by Learn from this forum. Bitcointalk is not only earning platform. It's like a school for learn about cryptocurrency. Mostly new member joned for bounty. Yes , you can do bounty it's eligible. But before start earning from here by bounty we need spend time for learn more. Make a quality and meaningful  post. You have right to make question here, many people will answer you. I think it's possible reduce spamming if bounty turn disable only for newbie. So they will try to learn more and will try to be polite. I am newbie. Are you thinking why I am talking against newbie? No, I am not talking against. I just try to convince for reduce spamming on forum. If I hurt any newbie , I am sorry. We can do competition for make good and quality post and learn from old member's.  There are so many rulse about forum. We should read them. I know most of us we didn't that.

5) Don't join any bounty until your rank Jr. Members or above.
6) Avoid scammers those are Buy sale Bitcointalk account.
