I'm shocked how I didn't see this thread yesterday when I made a post which contains almost all the words given in your list. I'm quoting it here so everyone can see it:
Am new here in bitcointalk, and I have been hearing my friends discussing the important and usefulness of this forum but every since I came in am still unable to understand how really this forum works. It will be a big pleasure to me if anyone can dedicate there time to tutor me on how to use and benefit from this forum so I don't get stuck in the hands internet fradster. Thanks for your time
Nobody can spoon-feed you about anything here and you need to learn everything by yourself, your experience will fulfill your expectations here.
To prevent yourself from being scammed, use a reputed escrow of the forum. I can give you the link but I want you to find it on your own.
To not get banned, don't copy-paste anybody's content either from here or internet as it is one of the toughest permabans called plagiarism ban which will never allow you to come back here and post. Your spam can also get you banned for a range between 6 days to a few months to permaban.
Try to avoid posting in topics you don't have relevant information about because those posts will get reported and deleted by mods if not found on-topic.
This forum allows trust settings where you can keep/remove and adjust people's trust levels according to how you want to see them (however that doesn't change anything for others unless you have a depth of DT1 or DT2. Trust is for successful trades of goods/services or information as well as contribution to this forum. Though, you may get red tagged by someone for anything but don't worry because if the tag has got no sufficient proof or reason to prove you wrong, that tag will be ignored.
Forum also has sections where you can discuss Bitcoin and altcoins as well as the same in your local language too. It has also provided boards where you can trade goods/services I already told about before.
You can ask technical queries related to miners and other hardware related issues and also indulge into speculative discussions to know where BTC will be going. You can also talk about mining and its difficulty levels and ask about blockchain and its features without any hesitation 'and there is a search button up there on top right which you can use to find your questions if already asked before you post the same question'.
That's what I know about this forum in a whole and trust me nobody will tell you everything, but give you a short intro just like I did. Except this, you need to start your journey and learn more yourself.
