How to announce yourself as a Newbie!

Alt accounts can be created for numerous purposes, not necessarily related to anything wrongful, such as (but not limited to):

-   Separating a bounty account from a discussion account.
-   Separating a business account from a discussion account.
-   Distinguishing between when one is fully focused in their posting, from when one is posting on the move.
-   Separating the main account from other accounts related to building services around the forum (i.e. scrapers, legit bots, etc.).
-   Shielding behind a new account to express opinions or report on accounts, while not wanting this to be linked to the main account.
-   One can have multiple accounts to enrol in different campaigns, providing the rules are met and the ethics clean and square (as I mentioned previously).

But from my perspective i have not see the needful for someone to have a multiple accounts, because having that will reduce the amount of meaningful contribution because the attention of user will be divided and it's focus will not be in the same direction, and let us be realistic here, those that is having multiple accounts without signature campaign can those accounts function properly..the answer is "No" i now that many people aim is to create different accts more especially newbies. Because they are seeing here as a source of income.

I think alt account should be for established members who are not only motivated by passion for learning, but also monetary. It's difficult to commit time and intellect to what at the moment doesn't put food on the table.

I dont think this should be only for estbalisshed members. What are the difference for a normal user with them? Everyon here in forum can have the same opportunity. Yes there is an hierarchy here and some are popular one. But theymos didnt mentioned that only those popular one can have an alt accountfor their purpose. Even you can have it as long as you have your own purpose for having that. I just corrected you there about that one.

Isn't Cryptotalk such a forum? Didn't members copy-paste a bunch of posts from Bitcointalk over there but also from other sources and their admins simply don't care? Maybe I'm wrong about this.

I am not aware of this forum.  Is it something worth trying out? Do the activities there differ significantly with what is being done here?

 ;DThank you for the author's careful analysis, thank you very much, very valuable. In fact, since I registered in November last year, my various numerical values have represented my identity. The early replies in the forum did not have high quality and arguments. I am a rookie who posts and studies at the same time.

After this period of time in the forum, you don't care who I am, but more about whether I am growing up sincerely. The stories of many heroes and legendary members tell me time and again that the forum needs effective views, valuable views, and the content is king, rather than caring about what I eat today.

In fact, what I feel most in the forum is the kind and sincere attitude, and what impresses me deeply is that Pooya87, a legendary member and maybe a technology geek, will analyze and answer every sentence you say in his reply, which is full of emotion. thank you.

I don't think it only for -Newbies- also those who want to renounce their previous bounty spammers, spammer and unknowledgeable self into a new one can help themselves with your post.
+ Your first way: what does a -Newbie- or old defaulting members want to post, especially when their knowledge on their topic is non-existent. I listen more than I talk because, my time with anyone is well spent when I gain a knowledge or two, as a -newbie- with knowledge, is similar to conspiring against your development in the forum.

+ Second: this is mutual, I have on my experience been corrected, or have more knowledge when I post some piece of my Knowledge, I say it's an experience because is subsequential, and knowledge is first grade, posting your knowledge can help is familiarising with the knowledge too.

It's a spammer's haven. They used to pay people in bitcoin to post there but than they screwed their own members and started paying them in some talk token instead. I think the forum is owned by Yobit exchange, a service which had their signature campaign stopped on Bitcointalk with all participants temporarily banned. If you are looking for quality, I doubt you will find it there. I remember from some earlier posts I read that the forum is very restrictive, tends to ban users and even IPs from whole countries can't access the site.

I figure it depends on who runs the account. If we grab an average spammer of low value content, multiple accounts will lead to more low value posts if he’s really into it. On the other hand, a decent poster may be enrolled in a campaign with a low posting quota, and the person may have plenty of time to try to run a couple without any negative impact (providing he’s ethical). This latter case is likely way less frequent than the former though.

Personally, I still manage to roam the forum quite a while per day. Even so, I have no wish to even ponder the effort and extra time required by running more than one account (*). Besides, I don’t suffer from split personality, so it wouldn’t seem a very natural thing to do. Nevertheless, there are reasonable reasons to do so as I listed before, and being the forum open to embrace them, it leaves the door wide open to abuse by spammers.

(*) I do have a couple of additional accounts, used to scrape the forum and reserve a given name from being used. None of these have any associates posts.

A novice without any formal education would first of all want to go down the lane of posting without reading at first. No doubt time, this sort of attitude changes, probably after seeing comments on his or her post or some other post of its nature. You know, the fault actually doesn't often depend on  the newbies, it's often by the ones introduced to the forum.
If I'm not mistaking, at least 80%+ users in this forum where introduced to the platform and its actually with the hope that they could build or make a fortune and to attain anything of what in the forum, it often starts with posting and as such you have beginners eager to make posts and have there post count and activity series on the go. Unfortunately,  they tend to learn almost nothing in the process.

The best way you can announce yourself is with your posts quality. Everybody notice a quality post when they see one and if you try to make yourself useful by constantly participating in quality discussion, very soon you won't be just another users no body notice on the forum as they're lost in the countless spams but that user that makes decent posts and attract readers.

Most newbies today just rush to announced themselves as they're probably alts and have seen others get merited for doing same or were told by their referral to do similar things. The sad part is that, they suck at it, basically everyone is saying the same thing so it becomes boring to read and I hardly think anyone still read their announcement thread again.

[kawetsriyanto]

The best way you can announce yourself is with your posts quality.

Not sure to say this as the best way. There are many other ways that can be the best way as well.
For me, as long as it is a positive contribution to this forum, it is always the best way to introduce yourself.

These ways, I think a new member can consider too.

- Share valuable information that can be useful for all members.
- Help in reporting bad members who are breaking the rules in this forum.
- Be active in your local boards.

Most newbies? Do you have valid data to state this?
I have no idea about this, but to say most newbies is too speculative.
Sure, there are many newbies who are suspected as Alts, but to judge "most" of them requires valid data.

I have also thought about this issue. As a newbie to the forum, I have more than two years of trading experience. But I don't know how to make a contribution. Only treat everyone sincerely. Seeing the question tells what I know, ask my question.

Thanks sir for this. I took a glance at the site. Most of the boards there are similar with what we have here. But, it's not as user friendly as what we have here. Am ok here for now and always happy to see some usernames everyday.

If you have knowledge of the crypto market and willing to participate in healthy and constructive discussion here on the forum then don't need to make any announcement and you will not be newbie at all.The rule is simple you contribute effectively on the forum and you will get rewards for the same in form of merits and rank up.

Post Without Learning:
Apart from this forum, you cannot excel in any organisation whether offline or online without knowing the organisation's dos and don'ts.
Conclusion:
Newbies, be open to learning even if not crypto related. You will discover that this forum will also improve your reasoning(analytical)skill, writing (typing) skill and your ability to associate reasonable with humanity.

I sincerely wish this can help some newbies.
Thanks all!

Thank you OP for this thread. It has point out so many things to me. When I became a member of the forum. I didn't give my self sometime to learn and understand the system of the forum. A case where by new members don't take sometime to learn does and don't of the forum there will be a certain stage that it can cause lots of damage. Learning factor is the major problem of new members . Some find it difficult because of time to give out to go through the forum and read about the forum

There’s no big secret here, really.
This forum is completely open to anyone, new and old members, and there is no discrimination.
If you have any knowledge or experience that can help other members, share it freely.
If you don't have a lot of knowledge and experience in the crypto area but you are interested in some things, feel free to ask and you will get an answer.
I only advise you to avoid participating in discussions on topics about which you know nothing and can't contribute anything with your knowledge and experience.

[TelolettOm]

As a newbie to the forum, I have more than two years of trading experience. But I don't know how to make a contribution.

You are a newbie in this forum but not a newbie in trading. So, why don't you share your experience or knowledge about trading?
You can make a thread that tells your experiences in trading. It is better in a specific topic, for examples: trading tips for a day trader, how to plan the goal in trading properly, or what you must avoid in trading. Explain or describe it based on your experience. Since you already trade for 2 years, I think you have got enough knowledge and experience about it.

Number One and Two are good ways in order to understand and improve at first about crypto and this forum.
Sometimes, most newbies will:
Ask first before learning
stating about something incorrectly before learning

Well, sometimes, we may need to learn by doing. But here, I think that we need to learn at first, and as long as we have been clear and understand enough at least for the basics, we can continue learning y doing. Because learning will never stop in whatever stage we are.
And, should a newbie announce themselves as a newbie? I don't think so. As long as they can give a good contribution,
