Good to summarize these threads. They are really helpful for beginners to identify some useful threads for them in this forum. I just want to add these threads, if you don't mind:

Introduction on how to use BB code

So that newbies can freely post whatever they want such as image or url. However, they should abide also the said rules because there are still restrictions in posting here like referrals and NSFW.

Another one:

Signature Campaign Guidelines (read this before starting or joining a campaign)

For those who want to join sig camps.

No offense,

I think your thread is similar like "guide for newbie" or "list of useful thread". I have saw dozens thread like that in the past, and in general there are mostly same. I don't think we need to make a new summary again, personally I prefer using search engine to find a thread what I looking for.
Here are few list/guide from other user :

• Guide for newbie
• A collection of Beginner's Guides and Article research
• Comprehensive guide to Bitcointalk. Newbie friendly + calculator and infographic
• YOUR TOTAL BEGINNERS GUIDE TO CRYPTOCURRENCY and BITCOINTALK
• [GUIDES] on Bitcointalk. Index thread (until there is a dedicated subforum?)
• Simple Guide on Bitcointalk

I don't know.

Why almost every week , you make a thread at least 1-3 thread on the "Beginners & Helps" board. Seeing your thread for me the thread type almost has the same design with your other thread that has been publishing that's why I recognize you on this board. To be honest, every thread you have been publishing 80% of them still pretty basic and almost everyone already aware of that. I know you trying to contribute to the forum, I think its time to you making something new with some different topics. If you want to remembering other beginners about the forum and rules, better to search some other thread who have that's type topic and then "BUMP IT" the thread instance making a new one.

One of the examples from @Jawhead999, no matter how many we created the topics but other people still can't read a simple thread went they to focus still earning on the bounty section. No one beginner will read that's, they just asking some questions or reading about this topic went they have a problem with their account example: Banned Account even went the topic has been "stinky note" they still don't want to spend the time 5 mins reading thread.. So basically, they to focus on working as the bounty and will be reading the rules or something like that after they got some punishment from the forum went their activity as bounty hunter disturbed.
