Welcome to the forum, @zackmark99!
I hope you enjoy and maximize your time here in the forum on exploring and learning many things. As you go through different sections, you will surely discover a lot, that could help you realize and specify what you want to achieve in here. So, come here and read around, and don’t forget to get familiarize with the rules and how merit system works to get a good profile for this will surely help you also.
This forum is bit hard but I'm trying....
What's the need for the good profile here ?
If it is about learning from other people talks, then what's the catch ?
I'm just trying to under stand it better, hope you don't mistake me if my questions are silly..
In my opinion, what makes your profile good is your contributions. If they are useful and safe then your profile becomes good. Don't bother too much about earning "Merit" else you may be discouraged even when you are making good/safe and useful contributions.. You will likely earn merit you deserve once in a while when you make good contributions without expecting merits/rewards.
Our purpose here is to contribute to any good thing Bitcoin/crypto related. If you want to stray a little bit away from crypto discussions then post on these sections of the forum: "Off-topic", "Politics & society" , "Serious Discussion" etc. Your contributions on the sections should also be useful and good.
If You don't know much about Bitcoin or crypto you can learn from those who understand it better than you do. Those who actually understand it wouldn't make it complicated for you unless they are too selfish.
