What are the things not to do on the Bitcointalk forum?

[Rruchi man]

Very importantly apart from the obvious answers to your questions, i believe you should not be a faker on this forum. You must strive to be you and original in your opinions on topics that you have an understanding on. Always remember that someone can benefit/learn from your unique opinions, so no pressure, just be real.

Welcome.

I think as a newbie that's one of the first thing you should know, but I think it's already on the pin post but incase you don't notice that I will definitely put you true some things but I will still recommend you to check the pin post again for more details.
Firstly I believe in this forum you should always post meaningful things in the forum things that will benefit the forum and the forum users and their is always reward for quality post and there is always punishment for unnecessary posts so you have to be careful.
You have to be very careful of what you are posting on the forum make sure you don't plagiarize, if you are getting your information from a place make sure you quote the post and put your source link where you get the post from.
I believe their are still many thinkings you should know just try and check the pin post thanks.

Besides following the forum rules, you should not support and promote scam projects I have seen people here promoting verified and notorious scam projects, defending and promoting them because of the payment they are receiving, I would also like to add, do not provide false and misleading information, this forum is an information hub, keep it clean by posting only what is true and legit.

[GeorgeJohn]

We have varieties of things you can not do via Bitcointalk community, i think having the mindset that trigger or leads to scam is against the community objective, and also not to be sincere to the community entirely, i think forum forbid all these from my perspective. Other things a forum user should not do is already stipulates in the rules and regulations of the forum which i believe many  or one or two users has input or drop the link to this thread, were you can read up about the forum. its obvious that learning from the rules and from other members is of one the major concern of newbie who is ready to learn.

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

Don't just focus on the official/unofficial things OP, there are some unethical things that as humans you're not supposed to engage yourself in just as @aioc has highlighted. These things aren't officially stated on the rules but if found guilty could get you red trusted. Do not encourage companies that doesn't have the interest of the forum or her members at heart.

Project that encourages spamming shoudn't be welcomed, while those that hire members to promote them so they get more publicity and more victims shoudn't also be patronized. All things unethical in the real world aren't also welcomed here which is why plagiarism is highly frowned at as that's stealing.

Listen to all this advice and the forum will be a very healthy place for you to hangout to learn and also pass down the knowledge you have to fellow enthusiast of the cryptocurency industry.

Plagiarism and spamming in the forum leads to ban of user, let  your main focus to learn and contribute to the forum for the benefit of other users. What ever that you don't have much understanding about use the search button or you can ask here in the forum.

Your account was opened on Oct 2 and you created 3 threads on the same day. That looks like breaking a law in this forum, even though I do not know the particular law. You have to avoid doing that in the future before you get called a spammer or anything like that very soon. Another thing you have to avoid is for you to only post on topics or comments you are familiar with. Do not post on topics or respond to an issue if you are not going to be constructive on it.

I didn't remember about this rule, (which is I think good if a newbie has a limit upon creating a thread per day) anyone can make a thread as long as it isn't spammed or have a thought that can be considered as a constructive post, even asking here and make thread aren't against the forum rule.

Based on the post history of the OP, it was shared from the article and I don't think this is a good idea which is if OP frequently doing, it will become into spam topic.

A simple piece of advice with OP, just take your time spending on the forum reading the forum rules, especially those sticky threads on this section that will surely help to improve himself before making threads or interacting with different discussions.

There is too much to learn here then to start a new thread. You go around different categories in this forum and everything is there for you. I rarely felt any need to start a thread.  People are starting new threads with intentions of accumulating merits that can take them up in rank to qualify for the bounty campaign. That's just my own opinion.

plagiarism has become a severe ban on this forum...

I've seen a lot of accounts that got banned for plagiarism and made a topic about it just to get the attention of other members. if your account doesn't want to be banned then don't do it, besides that you don't make spam post, it's really very disturbing.

1. Do not forget to read the forum rules.
2. Do not spam the forum.

Let me stop here. Many of them are personal and unofficial.  But you can use them. It is important to be yourself.

[isaac_clarke22]

Just keep reading around the forum, OP.
As what CryptopreneurBrainboss said, there are "unwritten rules". It will not lead you to a ban, but it could severely hurt your reputation and you never wanted that to happen to you of course.
Even if you are not into trading stuffs around here, it might affect on how others will see you here.

[Stalker22]

Even after receiving assistance, newbies rarely provide feedback whether the issue has been resolved or if they are satisfied with the responses they received. This shows disrespect toward other forum members as well as lack of appreciation for the help they received. You can also add this to the list of things you shouldn't do on the forums.

BandetBulut, I think this thread already has more than enough answers. Perhaps it's time to lock it?

[nakamura12]

You don't have to do lots of research on what things that you shouldn't do in bitcointalk forum. It is very simple if you ask me. What you need to do is avoid doing things that many people in this forum doesn't like. Those things I mentioned is stated by some of them like do not spam, do not scam, do not plagiarise and many more. In short, follow rules, read, study, learn and be yourself. I also agree that there are many answers already.

[Marykeller]

Welcome to the forum once more. It would have been much better if that you went through the rules abiding by the forum to get acquainted with it than asking this irrelevant question.
Different answers and opinions have been given to you, is now left for you to abide by it for a better understanding of how the forum works.
Good luck to you and enjoy what bitcointalk forum got in stock for you about crypto

I put it to you though, I'm sure a few persons must have suggested it but, most users have departed this forum because they plagiarised someone else content. It's about the rule that stands out more often and one of the never do on the forum. There are a couple of others but plagiarism has been a way towards the end of many. It takes different forms, direct copy and paste, paraphrasing, content spinning or mixing and ahits like that but all in itself is plagiarism. You might escape it for a while and that's because, your user might not have been a concern but trust me, a time would come when it would catch up to you and you might not get a second chance to make things right.

They do that since they are lazy and want to increase their post count then try to earn a merit out of that. And that is bad action done by newbies so this is one thing need to avoid since we will just waste our account if we did that thing since plagiarism if one of the concerns which is always pointed out by other forum users who report it. Anyways as I see it seems the plagiarism act is lessen maybe the effort of those reputable members who spend their time to do a research and report it to the mods contributes for its elimination.

Like, forget your accounts lol. Don't commit plagiarism because it surely sucks to get your hard work copied and taken as someone else's. Writing great solid content is hard enough to start with.

Wow thank you for these links, it is very helpful.  While for me, I joined bitcointalk way back 2018, been active for just a few months and I stopped. I almost forgot about this forum but now I'm back. It will help me to refresh my knowledge and deepen my understanding.
