Essay: How should i get 5 posts if i'm newbie? (;
By: Tom Peckelpent
Essay number three. And the number of the essays was three.
I believe it was Marie Joséphine de Suin who first said, "Boredom is the fear of self." Since that famous day, we have progressed in our culture and now find ourselves posting on bit coin talk. And it is now that we find our selves so often asking the fun question "How should i get 5 posts if i'm newbie? (;" The answer is one we may find within ourselves if only we realize that final truth; "Boredom comes from a boring mind." -Metallica. It is by sharing our lives with others here that we form bonds. And so, we know now what we must do to get out of the newbie forum. We must share ourselves. We must share our lives, our feelings, and form a bond. Only then can we be strong enough to allow the friendships we have formed here to tow us ever so gently into the seas we wish to sail.
But don't be boring. Share an exciting thing that happened with you last week. Like, I was talking with this friend at school about bit coins, and he said, "bit coins, what's that?" and I said "It's a Crypto currency." And he says, "Crypto currency? Sounds like something you give Charon in the underworld" and I'm all like no no dude it's about computers and shit. And he says, "Computers?" and then I said ok look, you can buy steam games with it. And he said "Shit bro, sign me up. That's what I'm talkin' bout bro! Hey buy me a beer." Then you can make a joke about buying beer with bit coins. From this we can learn that the best way to explain bit coins to people is to tell people about what they can buy with bit coins. Did you know you can buy clothing, books, and even chocofudge with nuts in it? It's true. You can even buy macs or an iPad. That's what people want to know.
Fact. Why are you here? Talk about it. Maybe like so many, you wish to buy things in bit coins. But could it be, you also wish to sell? Look around your house. Do you have anything valuable? Maybe you can sell it for bit coins! Talk about the stuff you are thinking of selling. If you have a unique item to sell, people will want to know. The more special it is, the more people will want to talk about it. For example, trying to sell a pizza for bit coins (I do not condone this) is sure to cause people to laugh and start talking about that time someone sold a pizza for 10,000 bit coins (now worth over $130,000). Then you can respond to them and laugh. That's gotta be worth two posts right there.
Trying to sell fun and cool stuff is great but one more great way to meet people is to sell something that no one else has thought of selling before. That means, no steam games. How about opening a bookstore? That's fresh. If you have a lot of books in your home, you can take photos of them and make a simple bookstore webpage. Who knows, it might be a good job for you. Make bit coins strong.
Buying and selling is not the only way to get involved with us here on bit coin talk. You can also offer a service. If you are a girl for example you could try to be the first chick ever to sell her virginity for bit coins. The press coverage would be immense. If you're looking to get into the community big time then selling your body is a great way to get involved. Lots of guys try selling their soul or offering to hurt themselves for bit coins, but letting a guy pop your cherry is just that much more real. Don't forget to take photos, because you will be able to sell them later on, to anyone who wants a piece of bit coin history.
In the end there are many unique and special ways you can become involved in the bit coin community many of which are limited only to your imagination and even then the best way to join the community might be to listen to other people since no one can think of all the stuff to talk about by themselves plus people tend to have good ideas anyway and have fun in the sharing of those ideas and the learning which takes place among friends. This is how we are. After all, it was Voltaire in his epic "Candide" who once said, "Our labour preserves us from three great evils -- weariness, vice, and want."
