NEWBIE GUIDE 101

[ellaloveee]

Hello Newbies! Welcome to the forum! I am also a newbie. Maybe you are wondering now where to start or what things you need to know first.  This are the things you need to remember:

1. READ and LEARN. “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go. “– Dr. Seuss
As a newbie, reading will help us to expand our knowledge and will give us more ideas about Bitcoin. Don’t just read, understand what you read. Here is the list of the things I read and plan to read: (I also read comments from the thread)

Read this first: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1689727.0
Read the Rules and Regulation: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=703657.0#post_guidelines
Read some vocabulary: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5289617.0

Read more and more! As the saying goes, knowledge is power.

2. CREATE. Create interesting thread or post.
Apply what you have read and learn. In making a thread or post, it should answer question or help the readers resolve their problem. Also, you can write topics that will give new knowledge to others. When creating make sure that it is your own work. Do not copy the post of another person, or simply DO NOT PLAGIARIZE! Acknowledge the author if you copy a post or you use it as a reference. To make sure that your post will gain more views or readers, apply this tip from Administrator Theymus Topic title style guide when creating a topic title
Always remember, a good thread must have a catchy title; it is interesting to read; and the most important is it provides educational content to all members.

3. RESPECT. Respect opinions.
We live today in a world filled with so much conflicts. Our opinions and worldviews are different from one another; and people either agree on what we share or not. Sometimes we argue when we see or hear someone express an opinion which is different from ours. My advice to you is to be always OPEN-MINDED. Hear the opposing opinions and try to understand their position. Understanding does not mean that you totally agree; and by understanding them you will learn something new. Let’s respect each other’s opinion and have a healthy debate in the replies.

Hope this helps to all beginners here. You can read from other section of this forum and post there, just don’t forget RLCR (Read & Learn, Create, Respect). Enjoy reading!

P.S. Seniors (all members above newbie) you can add more here. And Thank you for all of your contributions here!

As a newbie in the past, I did not think about any topic like yours. It takes time to make and I did not have knowledge to write it. It is the bitcoin forum and when I joined, my priority is learning about bitcoin.

forum members should really make interesting topics not things that are just to make activity, by posting anything even without any clear info about it, forums are made to discuss things and exchange information and learn from others

I think without even saying respect should be given to other members even a newbie or a legendary, you should look at others as equal even with a level gap, people tends to look down on themselves and lost self-confidence, you should look down on others even if you are higher with them, its just a rank, but without it you are just both humans, respect also creates great harmony and produce good result unlike bullying others post.
