After joining the Bitcointalk forum, a Beginner faces many problems. In order to solve those problems, forum members have created different types of [GUIDE] at different times. And those [GUIDE] are slowly getting lost due to not updating or bumping regularly. So I tried to collect some important [GUIDE] on the same page. I was inspired to create this thread after viewing.

Op you tried for researching related topics that guides beginners in forum I really applaud your hardworking, i find out that some of the topics we see as a topic for beginners is not really beginners topics,it guide's everyone who are ready to study,because some members in forum don't really know thing we fell is the normal step to follow in forum.
I will courage members and full members to revisits those guide topics meant for beginners.

It is indeed a great act of kindness towards the new ones here to compile links or topics that help them become more responsible and effective posters in the forum. It will help a lot so that we wouldn't have to deal with newbies asking too much ignorant questions or nonsense ideas coming up from their posts. Surely, there will always be newbies like that but we can atleast help in lessening the number of such individuals. Let us help each other and help the newbies build up a good impression as well as good reputation. Not everyone gets to have such opportunities so it would be best if we keep on making ourselves knowleable about complicated stuffs in the forum.

This is so intriguing to read, I viewed some of the guide listed and it was more than educative for me, I believe the list is endless because there are more to learn and to be aware about, upon the completion of all of these guide, I believe that our orientations and knowledge about what seems unknown would be an additional understanding. It is such a basic steps to learning better on this forum especially for newbies like myself and others. I look forward to learning more of these.

This is the first I saw this compilation of thread for beginners and I'm amazed on how determine you are in helping them improve.

For me, I like to read a lot of stuffs especially that if I know how important it is to make me improve as a user here and as an investor in the market.

There are also compilation of threads about scams that you can see here just explore the forum, I hope that newbies will spend time on it.

Why do we need spamlists of threads, when Beginners & Help has a sticky guide to help find important threads?

The sticky guide has links to forum rules, newbie technical help, and links to wallets thread, important advice about trust, important security advice, warnings about malware, glossary of forum terminology, and many other important threads... and many of these threads link to other threads, with even more detailed information. Most of these important threads are not even linked here. Did OP see all of them?

Oh, but this list has links to Defi guides, Uniswap, and other scams/scam-laden environments so that Newbies can get scammed better. Angry

Advice for Newbies: Avoid Defi like plague! If you don't know why, ask in the Wall Observer.

Everyone join Blurt.blog & Steemit.com

These 2 Threads are the Beginning of everything, but we are about launch a Network of Punic Currencies that serve to Navigate people through Blockchain.

Punic Wax Mining Pools
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--5293044

Punic Copper & Punic Tin https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--5289188

We will continue this with metals and Gemstones, Punic Bronze, Punic Zinc, Punic Nickle, Punic Obsidian, Punic Brass, Punic Emerald, Akasha, Punic Silver, Punic Gold, etc. This will be 1 Network, but these will each be their own Blockchain, or a Token on a Blockchain, and by understanding the Punic Currencies you will understand all Cryptocurrencies. We will have a Bitcoin Clone, 2 Ethereum Clones, a Cryptonote Clone, several other Blockchains and several Tokens.

This will open the Doors of Cryptocurrency to the people and the Gods, the Punic Currencies are a Network of Currencies used to trade Religious Materials. As a Cryptocurrency, by owning Punic Currencies you own a piece of the Network, but these are actual Trade Instruments to be traded for Religious Materials. We are making various Ritual Objects, and will be selling Materials for Altars and Mhurti. We will also be founding Temples, Matha and Towns around the World.

It is more convenient and save your time to load pages if the user you are aiming at has too many topics. You have to load images, text of their topics. To help you better understand potential inconvenience, you can visit the post history page of Ratimov -- who is a topic-productive and his topics have too many images. Cheesy

With my tip, you can have a list of their topics by default. You can be able to narrow down the list by specific board (use &board=boardid at the end).

If one user uses good topic title that represents what the topic discusses about, it is enough to look at topic title when you are in searching.

Well, I'm glad I mentioned about it and If I did not I think I wouldn't know about it if you haven't shared it here I wouldn't know about it and other people who don't know about it too. This will lessen time searching for threads you forgot the thread title. Thanks for sharing.

About searching, I have a tip for you:

If you know username of one user, and want to find one of his threads but don't remember keywords for his thread title/ contents, you can visit the hidden page: https://bitcointalk.org/gettopics.php?user=2614133 (replace userid). When you see a list of thread, you can easier find what you are looking for.

If ever I felt lazy searching for good threads from a certain member and forget the thread title so what I did is search the member and go to profile then show the last topic created by this person and then next and next until you will be able to find the thread you are looking for. Your tip also work since I also did it.
You can also change the userid.

Thank you for this kind of long guide and it tools a look time before I read all of those on the list. It seems I already read just four items on that list and I'm not a good member yet.

You really takes a lot of effort to gather all of this information. Of course I will give my effort on this too.

If I created some guide too I hope you will add this on the list.

Thank you for the good list of threads that may help every beginner of this forum. They will be benefited for every thread you have given, we all know that some members here don't have a habit of using the search engine to search the topics they want to know, this list will be very helpful for them to get those important topics that may help them as amber of this forum. The rules of the forum are the most important thing for all the beginners to read first before anything else.

Currently not much available - see my websitelink

If you want, you can add my topic:

Make sure to avoid wasting BTC for too high fees – step by step guide (Electrum)

It's already included in the list of LoyceV but since your list is about guides for newbies, it would be a good idea to include it. Saving fees isn't very difficult at least when users start avoiding centralized exchanges for frequent transactions and using Electrum instead.

Results are delimited to 5 pages, so you need to narrow down on boards, keywords and timeframe.

Great point, DdmrDdmr. I would edit my thread with a note on it. I rarely use forum search like you provided so I learn one more point from you. and did not notice such details (5 delimited pages) Cheesy

I'd prefer to use hidden pages to search (mostly search for topic titles, positions, some log pages).

@OP, please add my [Guide] Searching effectively

I see your intention to build up as every big compilation thread, I recommend you to categorise those threads like what @Ratimov does in [HUGE LIST] Useful Crypto Links !!!. Doing this will do take lot of your time (@Ratimov is extremely patient with his big list). Cheesy

In short, you need some main components:

Table of contents
Categorisations
Anchors
Helpful threads

One of the guides listed in the OP verses on the topic of how to use the forum search function: [Tips] Guide for forum search. Further down, within that guide, it shows how to improve Google search accuracy.
One thing that the referenced guide does not state is that it is important to narrow down the timeframe when using the advanced search feature on the forum, especially if the term is rather popular or generic.

For example, if you search for the term "merits", the search results will display entries from 2013 backwards (entries that do not relate to the Merits we’ve got in mind now). But if you cap the Message Age to say 30 days, you’ll get results even for today’s entries. Results are delimited to 5 pages, so you need to narrow down on boards, keywords and timeframe.
