    @Fillippone cannot be the researcher for ever.
    I saw many young account growing in knowledge, reputation and posting quality over my brief stay here on the forum, and I think that many more are out there, ready to give their contribution to this forum.
    Hopefully someone will challenge my “research” so we can both improve.

    We can discuss other mistakes of newbies. If there is need to update the thread, I will not fail to.[/list]
    • Learn to master the almost impossible [BB Code] syntax.
    This is like the 2020-2021-2022-2023 task…
    BB code is my major challenge right now and is looking for a way to get more knowledge on that, can you please recommend a good source or materal to learn bb code and how to use it effectively.
    2022-2023-2025 is going to be a long time of massive development in various skills and knowledge that we will keep improving upon.

    There's no country under the sun that have no laws or rules and regulation.
    You are absolutely right. I was just being sarcastic.
    What else am I expected to say? If everytime we keep complaining about the negligence of the forum rules. What I understood again is interest and priority. If ones interest is in learning he/she will surely be attentive to forum rules. But if it is more of earning, the reverse would be the case.
    Infact, it ought to be in such a way that a user after some months or years as the case maybe will revisit the rules and be sure he still understands and remembers them.
    You make a point and you just open my mind about having the habit of revisiting the forum rules because some amendments may have happened but let's be honest we have few high rank members that has this thought which means any member of this forum can break the rules without knowing it.
    This reminds me of the plagiarism rules which a lot of high member account were tagged for even when the post was made in the year 2010.

    I like your article, it is good and can encourage people, I hope newbies and low rank members will read it.

    Remember the golden rule, no matter how much coin you have on exchanges or Wallets "Not your key, Not your coin".
    What I noticed is that people are using exchanges and they are misleaded by thinking that bitcoin fee is too high, when I am using 0.00003 bitcoin to make payment on my private key wallet, I can see some exchanges demanding for 0.0005 bitcoin or more for fee.  That is why you will see people using exchanges are complaining that bitcoin fee is too high but it is very wrong.

    This is why we should be careful especially newbies to avoid getting banned for not reading the rules. I have seen a forum user did want to rank up but because of being blind by the merit that forum user is now banned and didn't got the chance to appeal to get unbanned but that word alone getting unbanned is almost zero to none. Neglecting the forum rules is what mostly happen to newbies even if you provide a link to the thread of foru rules.

    Probably the topic of the inability to use the search and the creation of questions that are discussed thousands of times on the forum is suitable.
    Notice how diligently newbies are creating new threads instead of just hitting search and getting a huge number of answers. What do we get as a result? Dozens of topics that could not have been created, being able to search and read.

    This should be updated on a regular..... Or should I say they're simply reluctant and lazy to do so. Kiss

    Neglecting the forum rules is the most repeating mistake of newbies.
    I know this is common among the newbies but also have some high rank members who also did something. I don't know maybe the user bought the account or not but the newbies are the only ones who neglects the forum rules.

    Majority don't do it on purpose, it is a matter of ignorance.
    I agree with this because at some point when the forum needs some correction a certain rule is created by the forum and it's not possible for all members to be aware in time.

    Also, it can be because the countries they come from, maybe there are no laws or rules there.

    See what this newbie has to say after being  caught avading ban.
    I didn't just start doing bounty because I love doing bounty I started so that I can save money for my schooling. I am a first year PHARMACY student and you can't just imagine me asking my parents money everytime. And me doing bounties doesn't affect my studies that's why I choose to do it, not because there's fun in it .
    And also concerning my  first account it got ban the first few weeks it was created because I had no idea how the system works in BITCOINTALK.so you can't blame me for trying to help myself make little money.

    This is the most often mistake made by newbies. I was also a newbie and I made a similar mistake, the way is because I didn't even read the forum rules at first before posting. That is why I even didn't know whether it is a mistake or not. And this must be avoided by newbies here, there is a search button in this forum that can be used to help us find much more information that we need exactly.
    Besides, shit-postings are very common to happen. Actually, this is also done not only by newbies but also by many members here who don't care about the posting quality. I know and am aware that I sometimes also still make mistakes, but at least, we can try, better than only posting shit posts every time, moreover only making such kind of plagiarism or bounty reports. We have similar chances to change our bad habits here.

    Yes, the topic is very suitable. Thanks for the suggestion and provision of link to a thread where searching was taught. I will include it in my next edit.
    One mistake that I've noticed amongst beginners is the zeal to post more than you try tend to read. It's not exactly a bad thing if you've got the experience but as a newbie or beginner in the forum, it's believed you've got no experience at all and so, you build it. You build by being more involved in reading to be aware of what goes on in here and how it's done. Posting and less reading only means you missing lots of information that could help in the long run. As a beginner, try to read more.
    Yes, this is a mistake of some newbies. I already made a post about this, I think it is worthy to be included. See a quote from the thread.
    Most users have infringed the rules at some point unintentionally. For example, going off topic is something that kind of naturally happens at times, and I would say the majority of users that post here have done this at least once, at least if they've been here for a few years. I've done it, and I've also caught myself doing it before.
    I have gone off topic sometimes, the moderator had to delete everything there. Most times we do not intentionally go off topic. It will be as a result of arguments, trolling or other kind of conversations. But the best practice is always to realise whenever digression comes and return to track in order to lessen the works of the mods.

    let us be sincere here, nobody can really know the protocols of any institute and violates the rules and regulations, because I have noticed this from my observation that almost fifty percent (50%) of people who fall a victims of breaking forum rules and regulations did not did it intensionally, because you can not look an existing law and break it, so in nutshell we can't neglect the terms and conditions of the community except it's a process whereby particular user want to verify if the community rules is active or functionable and purposely break the law or neglect the law.

I've done it, and I've also caught myself doing it before.

    Then, there's the rule of not posting your thread in the right place, which to be honest isn't a massive deal the majority of the time. It only ever becomes a problem if someone clearly doesn't care, and just continues to post where ever they want, but this happens rarely.

    Neglecting the rules is something, but accidentally infringing some of the less serious rules is somewhat expected. No one's perfect, and not everyone needs to know the rules absolutely 100%, its not like its possible anyway, because we don't have a official rule set, with examples etc.

    If you're not a serial spammer, plagiarist or troll then your infringements are likely not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, and while its definitely appreciated that you read the unofficial rules, and try to avoid breaking them, its not a massive deal that's why you have moderators help organise, and clean up.

    I don't know how newbie can find the search button when confused what to do on this forum at first. Usually the first post will lead him better because the forum members start telling him a lot about the rules and guide. The lazy habit of reading may also be one of the reasons why this continues to happen today.


    OK, when you came to the forum, you started with questions, or did you try to navigate through the sections of the forum on your own? Are there many old-timers here who, just like today's newcomers, have all the rules stuck under their noses? Or did the majority master the forum on their own?
    Agree, all these new topics with requests for help in orientation on the forum only show how lazy and flawed a person is. And, as a rule, all his interest stops as soon as he gets a lot of rules.
    Therefore, gradually looking around and settling around, we prove to ourselves that we can do something ourselves, without a pointer.
    And this is a sign of adulthood.

    Neglecting the forum rules is a serious  offence which means looking down on the forum rules . The forum rule is what every new member must hold very well. Obeying forum rules pays a lot and in the process of being obedient to forum, that's what will keep every member last longer in the forum with good reputation.  Consequences of neglecting the forum rules may be a bad experience and  by then it will be too late to amend mistakes.
    The best practice for starting this forum is to know the rules and follow them. Every user should know what rules they shouldn't break if they don't want to face the consequences. Ignoring the rules means they don't care about the consequences. One of the most frequently ignored rules many users on this forum are "no low quality posts/threads". This is the reason why there are a lot of posts deleted by mods.

    Probably the topic of the inability to use the search and the creation of questions that are discussed thousands of times on the forum is suitable.
    Notice how diligently newbies are creating new threads instead of just hitting search and getting a huge number of answers. What do we get as a result? Dozens of topics that could not have been created, being able to search and read.

    What are shit post please ?
    Those are posts that, in general, make no sense with little to no effort being exerted and are written in very poor English that no one else can understand. Sometimes they are shallow content posts that are too funny to read[1] – the best example are compiled below.

    What are shit post please ? Having seen this several times, I require a quick response to this question please.

    To put it simply — posts that are utter shit. Cheesy

    And while there really isn't an "official" description, mostly it's those "what is Bitcoin?", "wen bitcoin go up?", "bitcoin is scam because etc etc" types of questions.

    Nobody forbids sharing the merits; this is the right of the owner. Sometimes you can get merit for a good joke, a picture, and even for plagiarism.
    That's a good one. You know one thing about a crime, it stays true or legit until its eventually discovered and in the forum, it eventually gets discovered. There's no infringement on how you choose to send merits but, certain number of merits on or between an account at times raises questions as merits should be post based and not account based. A one line post been credited 50merits could raise questions too but, it doesn't make it wrong, its just to ensure there isn't anything fishy about it like merit says and just a deliberate merit boosting on an account to rank up as in, account farming.

    One mistake that I've noticed amongst beginners is the zeal to post more than you try tend to read. It's not exactly a bad thing if you've got the experience but as a newbie or beginner in the forum, it's believed you've got no experience at all and so, you build it.

    Dont know if you want to add this topic also ?
    But maybe it helps newbies and prevent them for getting there Account hacked and banned as we have seen that a few times in the last 6 Month.
    Lots of new Users only coming here for getting a Miningsoftware and download them from the Forum without know from where they download it.
    If they get the wrong one , the end of the story they will end up on a ban when they posting the Fake links.
    Guide and advice for new Users before you Download anything from the Forum !

    Dont know who you think about it , but i thought i will write it here.
