Hi tuppyp and welcome! Nice first post.
I'm still new around here too, and firstly i'd just invite you to have a look at the rules section at the top of the forum to familiarize yourself with the 'do's and dont's' around here. It'll help you avoid falling into any silly traps or pitfalls. Also its a pretty comprehensive guide of what is expected around here.
Get familiar with this place and have a good look around all threads, there's some brilliant information here, and regardless of how experienced you are in crypto, you'll learn something new here each time you visit. Stay busy and participate in conversations (where you can) and above all- stay positive and don't let the naysayers bring you down to their level.
If you need any help feel free to reach out!
