A legend was once a newbie

[KingsDen]

I made this post in two categories; first to encourage the newbie and second to advice the old members.

For the newbie, I believe most of us are sharing in my wish. My wish to become a legend, a legend with so much merits and positive trust.  But dreams do not come true without hardwork.
First we must appreciate and accept our newbie status by showing the inclination to learn.
We should learn by keen observations, by reading through the posts of the old members, this will help pattern our attitude in the forum, it will also help us to grow with the norms and ethics of the forum.
By so doing our passion for the forum will be high, it is the passion that creates the way to success.

For the Old members, I will liken the forum to a building from foundation to roofing.
The building at the foundation stage does not make it less building, but it is the stage at which the engineer puts much efforts and expertise. Take the newbie as the foundation, help us grow, for if the foundation is wrongly laid, it will have a significant negative effects at the completion stage.

Congratulations to me for having an account in this forum, I am looking forward to a rapid and sustainable growth with your help.

It is good to advice the newbies but you can not yet advice the legendary members because you are not yet a legendary or merit source, if you are up to that level, you will see no advice needed because they already know what your advice will be about and not relevant as they are meriting good posters. Just use bitcoin amd understand quality posts on this forum, get the knowledge about bitcoin and have experience about bitcoin, you will see you rank up. You need to learn, post relevant information about bitcoin and see some other boards attractive.

Have you come across posts by newbie claiming some acts of negligence from older members?
If you read in between lines, you will understand that I was not advising the legends, rather old members.  The legend you saw was a caption.
However, I appreciate your directions, I will follow up as you said. Thank you

My wish to become a legend, a legend with so much merits and positive trust.

You should probably aim for a higher dream, buddy. Outside signature campaigns and bragging rights, there's really nothing much "up" here. We all have the same access to information in the forum, and we have the same amount of freedom to discuss about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general. Having a lot of merits(hence a higher rank) is just a sign of having a good amount of knowledge in this space.

do you mean rapid and sustainable growth of your account? the only way that could happen is if you are consistently providing/sharing good information, contribute to the discussion or the forum. but don't always expect to be rewarded for everything that you do, even if you think what you did is good or helped someone.

if you want some inspiration I suggest looking at the thread created by LoyceV The future of Bitcointalk: Low Ranking Top Merit earners in the past 30 days. the thread consists of newbies or former newbies, some of those that are on the lists have already reached the required merit to become a legendary rank. Good luck with your journey here in the forum.

Welcome to the forum, good to hear that there's a newbie like you that already understands how forum users rank up via a good contributor on this forum.

We should learn by keen observations, by reading through the posts of the old members, this will help pattern our attitude in the forum, it will also help us to grow with the norms and ethics of the forum.

Tend to agree with this, as a newbie, spend your most time in reading and of course learning as well.  In this case, it's easy for you to absorb any knowledgable technical stuff towards cryptocurrency and blockchain technology.  Once you're there, isn't hard for you to gain merit especially if you're quality posters.  To be honest, isn't easy to rank up these days, merit sources have a high standard of giving merit, so you need to keep push and learn harder so that you can share any informative stuff that can be used/help users in the forum.

Well, good luck with your agenda and see you around.

I mean, we all want to rank up and stuff. But am I the only one out here who thinks these kind of posts are quite sketchy, as if there is something else behind the reason of their writing? I mean.. besides financial gain, there is not much you can do in the top ranks without working hard but I feel like this has to come from the inside of your own heart. Never felt the need to be "inspired" by other members... if you enjoy this place just like any other forum, you'll earn your own spot in here - you don't have to feel like you're working for a top-tier spot. It comes by itself... I mean no offense but every time I read these kind of posts I get a weird vibe, lol.

I don't know why you make it like university degrees that require staying up late and we are proud to hold them. It is a forum for discussion and reflection about Bitcoin. Your rank in this forum means nothing. How many newbies get a lot of attention and legendary members only spread spam.

If you are comfortable with profit, learn more and buy bitcoin a lot better than waiting until you reach the rank of legend.

[Muenalo]

I really admire your passion and desire for this forum, but one thing I must tell you is that to attain that level of "Legendary member", it takes time, and consistent hard work day by day. But for the very fact that you have taken the bold step of opening an account as a newbie, you shall surely attain that height of a legend..

Congratulations for you sign up.
Your passion speaks louder than your words here. Stick to it and make quality posts, you will surprisingly rank up.
All the forum users have same opportunities to explore, but the difference is being trusted.
There's no how a newbie can be experienced than the legends.

However, your advice is cool on both categories.

You are not the only one; every time I see a brand new members giving advice to other newbies and seniors and then all that talk about being grateful for being a part of this forum, self-congratulating themselves  on creating the account (like its some extremely complicated and difficult procedure lol)  and whatnot, I smell a merit fishing post.

@OP take it easy buddy, don't try too hard right from the first post.

You’re probably giving to much credit to Ranks, Merits and Trust, which one probably tends to do more when he starts-off on the forum. What’s relevant is the person behind an account, what they do / can do, and their attitude. Those counters may be correlated to these factors in some cases, but understanding that people may look up to those numbers, they should not really be a goal, but rather a set of bypass products.

[GeorgeJohn]

Really it's obvious that everyone have a story to narrate, so op advising the community when he has not secure one merit yet is partially good to am extent, but i will like you to know that everyone here was once a newbie, but it's only their hardworking that made them to grow to certain level today.

Nothing is really bad for someone to get elevated here but it requires attention, consciousness and good information, actually i understand that the summary of op, is merit, a Merit can earn through quality post which can be done through proper research and observing the method of senior colleagues kind of post, when been captured this, i think the chance of getting elevated is there, lastly to enable you last here try to read the rules and regulations of the community and also try to follow up loycev thread dropped @acroman08 it will really direct you properly.

Welcome to forum.

You must know life in the academy world (military), what lessons will be taken from a beginner in the academy, of course beginners-legends, knowledge, discipline, obeying the rules, they work hard, are passionate about doing their job, never give up and always do their best for the community and their country.


Back to topic: old member.
Let's just say that now you are in the Bitcointalk forum academy, just like we were when we were beginners, challenges, obstacles, we swallowed it, that's all for the sake of achieving graduation in the academy forum, if you want to be successful and have good grades while in education, you have to work hard and obey all the rules that have been applied, You have to do your best for everyone here, naturally you will get a graduation that is the best value and respected, the bottom line: show your true identity.

A novice can become a general with what he has.

The question is, what will you do once you have a legendary rank?. Even myself is not a legendary in terms of rank but I see myself the same as legendary member who can share and also learn when there is something new posted in the forum. I would say that trust is also important if you tend to involve in transactions.

Ranking is just an award that you achieve even I don't want to be legendary but want to be knowledgeable about bitcoin and provide the latest education to post on this forum so that it will attract a lot of interest by other members.
The ranking is how we have reached the peak of the highest score where people give us merit for the insights given and make them amazed, that's what I want the very broad knowledge I want.

[Daniel91]

KingsDen, welcome to the forum.
I think that your main goal should not be related to the forum rank but how to help other members of this forum, or how to contribute to this forum.
You can help with your knowledge or experience, which of course will not come overnight and requires some effort and work.
That way, everything else will come naturally, including your progress on the forum.
In order to get something from the members of this forum, you must first give something, something that will help them.
In the same way, forum members will help you

You are absolutely right. Everyone starts as a newbie of this forum or in the field of crypto and blockchain. Look at Vitalik Buterin for example. In the beginning he was a nobody until he founded Ethereum and worked hard on it. Right now he is the youngest billionaire.

No matter what aspect of life are we in, every legend, expert, coach or whatever, we all started all the way from the bottom and worked on our way to the top.

[lovesmayfamilis]

First, welcome to the forum. Your post is very well worded. But the only thing that is always somewhat confusing is what do you mean by the concept of help?
You have only three messages, and you conclude that experienced participants do not quite treat beginners correctly.
What is behind your request for help? Make a list and try to prove that someone refuses to help beginners.

[suzanne5223]

We should learn by keen observations, by reading through the posts of the old members,

It not all the posts made by old members that can guide you through the forum or your crypto journey cause some posts are full of misinformation and it be good in everything pertaining to crypto you'll need to read good crypto book.

this will help pattern our attitude in the forum, it will also help us to grow with the norms and ethics of the forum.

For the forum ethics, what you need is reading the forum rules and regulations and ask question about something you don't understand.
