Wow. Such question from Full member... You was able to reach that rank and still don't know how earn Bitcoin. Maybe it's bought or hacked account?
I'm not going to give advices, other members already posted some good suggestions. But c'mon, you can find thousands similar threads. If you would try to use search, you would find answers. Now you are just looking like an idiot by asking this question by being full member.

I don't see a big need to use Bitcoin ATM. Their fees damn high and exchange rates are horrible. I would use it only in urgently case when I would need to buy or sell BTC immediately. But in all other cases, I prefer to use more convenient services to exchange crypto.
And even if I would want to try Bitcoin ATM, I would have to travel to other country. In my country there was only 2 Bitcoin ATM's, but both was closed recently because they weren't approved by local tax institution. As owners of these ATM's said, they were getting more popular and had more andmore customers day by day. So, despite all disadvantages, Bitcoin ATM's can find enough users to operate.

As I already said, people stake their Bitcoin address to prove that they are real owner of bitcointalk account in case if someone hack account and original owner lose access to his account. Then you just need to sign a message from your stacked address and send PM to forum admin with request to recover account.
If you want to upload your Bitcoin address to your profile, open your profile, then click "Forum profile information" and you will see place to upload address.
Usually people are stacking their Bitcoin address with signed address on this thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=996318.0
Then other people verify signed message and quote that post. In account recovery proccess it works as reference to prove who is original owner of account.
Well, if you want to change your stacked address, you need to post signed from old address and also upload signed message from your new Bitcoin address. I hope it's clear enough. If not, don't hestitate to ask

It's not against the rules to ask questions which was already asked and answered. So, there would be no point to report such threads. Yes, we can ignore such questions, but many people still answering - some are just posting for their signature campaign. Others are showing hostility, but still, usually they give correct answer

Newbies also can leave negative feedbacks. But only feedbacks left by DT members affect user trust score. Basically, feedbacks left by you and me have same "power".
Personally, I also don't like users who acting like a boss just because that they have high rank. But my point is that should a bit more effort before asking questions. If you know how to use Google, I'm sure you can find answers to some basic questions which we are seeing on bitcointalk daily.
Personally, I've learned almost everything that I know about bitcoin myself without asking many questions. You just need to read, read and read. And repeat it daily.

Today I was reading article on Lithuanian press about customer of Mistertango who lost €500. Shortly, he lost his Mistertango debit card. It's possible to block card using Mistertango app, but for some reason he wasn't able to do that. He tried to contact support about this issue, but he didn't got answer. As written in article, it was contactless card and it don't require to enter PIN code when you spent up to €25 at once. So, person who found that card spent almost all money eventually. Good thing that Mistertango will cover these €500 and it will be returned to customer account. But one question came to my mind - when did Mistertango started to issue contactless cards? I can't find information about it anywhere.
And Mistertango said that have problems to answer support tickets in time due to fast increasing number of users. It can take more than week to get ticket answered.
Here is link of article, you can try to read it using Google Translate:

Why somebody should hire you instead of one of experienced bounty campaign manager? How they can know that you will do your job properly?
You didn't put much effort to make your service ANN and it really looks like a joke... Some people think that everyone can be a good bounty manager nowadays.

You are right, attitude towards newbies are negative here. But there are many reasons why. Newbies asking same general questions which was already asked million times. These users should put only minimal effort to find the answer, it's not that hard. For that purpose we have sticked topics with general information that they need to know. If they didn't found answer, it's nothing wrong to ask here. And more experienced members are getting tired to see and answer same questions. You are saying that some people are lazy by nature, but it's their own problem. 
But I'm seeing harsh attitude towards newbies not only here on Bitcointalk, but pretty much everywhere where we can find discussions about crypto. Newbies asking same questions like "How to buy BTC with USD", "Which exchange, wallet to use", "how long verification takes" and etc.

Wow, great tutorial! Merit from me
I see you put lot of effort to make this beginners guide. I'm not bounty hunter, but it was good stiff to read. Bookmarked your post - will give link to it when new members will ask how to participate in bounty campaigns.

Yes, auto withdraw fee are low if you compare it with exchange or wallet fees. But when it comes to faucet, fee looks pretty big. If you are using their faucet only to get free BTC, you need to make over 100 faucet claims to cover withdrawal fee. For example, Faucethub withdrawal fee only 400 Satoshi. If you withdrawing bigger amounts than 0.0002 BTC, fees are even lower.

Why users should need to post link to the image instead of embeding it? Just because you don't like? If users would post only link to image, then we would be forced to open 3rd party websites in order to view an image. It doesn't sounds good.
I'm seeing only one annoying thing in this case - people quoting original post without snipping the image.

You have wrong attitude... First of all, it's not about quantity of posts, it's about quality. If you will make 20 shitposts a day, you wont get any Merits. But if you will make 1 high quality posts, it's likely that someone will give you some Merit. So, you should focus on improving quality of your posts if you want to be awarded with Merit points. Best topic to post if you want to get Merits? Hard to say, but it's not likely that you would get Merit for posts made in Bounties, Politics & Society, Off-topic, Games and rounds boards.

If you would use search function, you would find many threads about 2FA. It was said that 2FA wont be added to current version of forum. As I understand, it's too difficult to integrate into current version of SMF. Probably some kind of 2FA will be added only to New Forum software

Good storry, OP. I think that many of us had experienced something similar.
In past I tried to introduce Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies to my family, friends. I explained some basic things, why it's worth to invest and etc. But I saw that they negative opinion and I can't change it, so I didn't put more effort to explain everything in detail, I don't see need to waste my time.
Then Bitcoin reached $20 000. And then people were asking, why I'm not selling now. I remember that my father said that bubble will burst soon...
And now when Bitcoin crashed, I'm getting lot of sarcastic questions "How much Bitcoin are worth now?" When I answer, they say why I didn't sold at $20 000. Now my father says "I told that bubble will burst soon. Now you only can dream that Bitcoin will reach record price"
No matter that I show how much profit I made until now, they still have negative opinion. My family and friends are sceptical about cryptocurrencies, but they don't have many arguments against it.

No, there are no rank restrictions, you can offer your Service even if you are Newbie. Offcourse, people more tend to trust in higher ranked members who have portfolio of their previous jobs. Usually when somebody hiring new member, escrow are required - person who hired you send money to escrow service and after you finnish your job, person who are escrowing funds sends your paymentvfor a job.

You will be able to claim only 1 coin each hour:

I don't know why, but my Facebook news feed are still full of ICO advertisements. Looks that this ban isn't effective so far.
It's hard to tell how ban of ICO advertisement will affect crypto industry. I don't know how much money Facebook are getting from all these ICO advertisers, but I suppose that FB wouldn't cut off branch that they are sitting on. Yes, there are other social networks like Twitter, Instagram and others, but they are less popular and it's proably more difficult to find targeted audience for advertisers. So, I think that ban of ICO advertisements will have more or less meaningful impact.
But I imagine what would happend if Google will decide ban advertisements of ICO's, cryptocurrencies on Adwords. It's probably the most effective and most used method to reach potential investors. And there aren't good alternatives for it.

Do you really think that Hero or Legendary members are such greedy that they wont give sMerits for high quality posts made by new users? Personally, when I send sMerits, I don't care much about rank, I'm looking at content of post. I don't see problem that new users with good posts will be able yo rank up and participate in signature campaigns. That's the main purpose of Merit system.
And how it affect earnings of high ranked member if new members won't be able to rank up? As you may see, mostly BTC paying signature campaigns are already full and there are much more users applying that they can accept.

You would make more money by selling these laptops than by using to mine. And if you don't have free electricity, just forget about this crazy idea. Even with free electricity you wont earn much.
If you will sell these laptops, maybe you will get enough money to build mining rig if you really want to try mining. Or just use these money to but BTC or some altcoins, but you will need to hurry up - prices dropped heavily, but it will recover sooner or later

If you need to earn $$$, you are on wrong forum
Seriously, it's not easy to earn money if you don't have any special skills. You can participate in bounties, there are more or less campaigns which are accepting Jr. Members, but as user above said, half of bounties (or even more) are rubbish.
On Services board you can find some tasks and earn few bucks from it.
Best way to earn - offer your own services. Translations, coding or design services are always needed. If you don't have such skills, it would be good to learn, it will be useful in your life.

I can't speak for others, but I didn't had bad experience with Bittrex. Support always answered my tickets within a day or two. Last time when I had to contact support was over month ago, I don't know, maybe things had changed since then. Yeah, there was some issues with ID verification and it affected reputation of Bittrex. But so far there are no exchange without any cons - some have terrible support, some are very laggy, others involved in shady activities and etc. In my eyes Bittrex have least disadvantages among other exchanges

So far they didn't announced date when they will enable new registrations, but according to announcement it will happen soon.
