Hello guys and girls,
I am a news writer for the crypto website
Coin Clarity, and this is my first post to the Beginners & Help section.
I've been involved with bitcoin since 2013 and a long-time forum user. Although I didn't formally register until 2017, I've been using the forum for various purposes quite a bit over the last 5 years.
In a series of 3 articles I compiled pretty much all the information I could think of that was relevant about the forum for new users: an explanation of how it works, what the rules are, how to find what you are looking for, how Activity, Trust and Merit work, and how to be productive with your time here.
Here are the articles and what each one contains:
Part 1 - a basic overview of the forum:
- the history of the forum
- links to the forum's "greatest hits" (popular threads)
- how ranks & merits work
- forum sections & their contents
- moderation & guidelines
- the Trust system
Part 2 - how to find what you're looking for & be a successful member:
- how to get started
- forum rules
- boards for educational purposes
- boards for trading
- boards for promoting your project
- boards for signature and bounty campaigns
Part 3 - the interviews:
- an interview with a moderator (
Flying Hellfish)
- an interview with a scam buster (
Phinnaeus Gage)
Your feedback is welcomed, and I am willing to entertain any and all questions you might have about the articles or the forum itself... I'll try to answer them the best that I can! Thanks.
