I'm officially not a newbie anymore!!!

[Lida93]

I'm happy to say that I am no longer in the newbie rank. I can remember being ashamed of the newbie rank glaring on my profile. I soon got used to it and then ignored it and focused on growing my knowledge on btc and crypto in general. I can say I've learnt a whole lot with loads more to learn. Learning is a continuous process and I look forward to growing in continuous knowledge and information sharing here in the forum.

I don't know why you should be ashamed of being a newbie. It's just a nae tag on the forum and nothing more. It only designates you to be new on forum but, doenst tell ouch about your knowledge on cryptocurrency. Your expressions does that for you, it tells you to be a pro on the subject or not.

Now that you've out grown the rank, what much difference does it make? As far as the forum goes, your still a beginner based on ranks. In other terms, you might be more and that's what it is.

Some of the new entrants in the forum are missing an understanding of something here, their focal point on growth in the forum is focused on the ranks chain thereby giving so much incentive on the ranks  undermining growth in knowledge about bitcoin and crypto currency as a whole. I once made this mistake though.

Not until I realized that Inasmuch as one is limited in crypto knowledge irrespective of his rank in the forum he is no anything different from an actual newbie. When we envelope ourselves with such perspective, we are well on the right track. What would be the need of the elevated rank without a commiserating crypto knowledge to it?

"Drama thread" I certainly do avoid those especially the ones created in the reputation and scam accusation board about some forum users getting involved in some kind of shitty stuffs. They certainly know how to play out a drama in some of the threads I have seen. But I feel reading and involving in educative thread about BTC is one way of advancing yourself into a fully loaded crypto enthusiast.

Of course - it is the wisest decision for you.
Some newbies are very interested in such threads these days - even they can figure out a lot of things despite admitting they're still newbies. No idea what the motive is - but I wouldn't worry too much that some of it is alt.

Wise advice for beginners is - focus on the growth of your knowledge regardless of whether it is bitcoin, blockchain, wallets, market behavior and investment opportunities. You don't have to deal with something that isn't important - so focusing on your plan is a wise choice.

I wonder why you would be ashamed of your newbie status. Don't you know that every high ranking member on the forum started from the scratch? So there's nothing shameful about going through the same process like every else. The quality contribution you make here is what will really count that when you finally decide to stay away or quit the forum, your absence will be greatly felt. Btw congratulations on your member rank and I wish you the best.

Forum growth is a gradual process and it come the way you work on it, forum is basically a process whereby your engagement and your activeness determined your elevation in forum because no body grow without been active in conversation and without know the things that's necessary concerning forum, clamping for new position is necessary to someone who is determined in forum

[Truthlovecoins]

Congratulations on your effort so far. This shows you did not relent and wouldn't even dare because you have come this far.
A newbie like me, who have been offline due to some reasons and is back, have now been saddled with the task of relearning, re-equipping  and fine tuning my rusty knowledge on the Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies technology and market trading system topics.
Am encouraged by your success and resilience.

I got lot of work to do.

[YUriy1991]

First, Congrat, you on this success. You are now no longer at the novice rank and have advanced one level. Nice try of course. For other things, for me, whether he is a beginner or not, for example in asking or answering questions from other people who are more senior, kind and objective, of course he will get a place and attention, and sometimes they have the possibility of having great potential and ability by the thought that they can be above the average of other people of their age. Yes. Visually on a forum someone looks like a newbie, but their knowledge and knowledge is sometimes more than that. As you said above, there is a lot we should know and learn about BTC or others here.

[SmartCharpa]

I'm really happy for you on your new rank, i don't think you should ever feel bad about being a newbie or brand-new on this forum because everyone you see who has advanced in rank by posting to this forum are once a newbie, we should keep knowing more about bitcoin and some of the most important things in investments gradually we all will rank up, there's nothing to be ashamed of it's just a matter of time. I congratulate you on your new rank, mate. I know it wasn't easy, but with all of them, we'll all rank up higher.

[SOKO-DEKE]

Being recognized in the forum is a great idea, but I don't think anyone will get it if their account isn't growing. High ranks help us stand out, but you can't get one in this forum unless you're a dedicated participant who consistently helps the community grow.

Everyone has a different reason for visiting the forum; some people are merely there to learn about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general and to invest, while others are there to take part in anything that will enable them to put food on the table. Therefore, if someone joins the forum with the intention of participating in signatures and ranking up quickly, they will be ashamed if they discover those they started with at higher ranks. However, if someone joins the forum with the intention of learning about cryptocurrencies and investing, I'm not sure what they will be ashamed of when they are in a lower rank because that is not what brought them to the forum.

I'm happy to say that I am no longer in the newbie rank. I can remember being ashamed of the newbie rank glaring on my profile.

First of all, I congratulate you, who have succeeded in moving up the ranking to become a member.

The feeling of pleasure is definitely very reasonable, when experiencing a ranking increase in this forum. Because for beginners, at first it will definitely be very difficult to be able to rank up. It will definitely take a long time and not a moment. So when you get just one merit, you can go up to junior rank. It feels amazing and feels so proud.
Because I have also experienced the same thing as you feel. So when you can rank up in this forum, that's something to be proud of.

But when I was a beginner in this forum, to be honest, I didn't feel ashamed at all. Because at that time I thought, I shouldn't be ashamed to be able to grow in this forum. Because if you have a sense of shame, especially if it's excessive, I'm sure it will be a big obstacle and cause someone to feel inferior to be able to contribute to this forum. Therefore, embarrassment or feeling of inferiority must be overcome as soon as possible, so that we can develop more in this forum.

In my opinion, Newbies need to stop here to read the topic written by Op, they can turn on motivation from the way Op has done in forming his account out of the Newbie circle. Learning can increase knowledge which can have a positive impact on personal and account, the knowledge gained can produce quality posts that are easier to get merit. Never hesitate to try, as long as there is a strong desire you can reach a higher rank.

[Sakanwa]

 Being a newbie might seem very much down grading to many individuals in the forum, especially those who ain't new to the crypto world and have good knowledge about bitcoin and it's kind, but here in this forum the're many things not concerning bitcoin that you'll come across and it would be very beneficial to your personal like, the ranking in the forum doesn't serve as an agenda for competition,  rather it's a means of letting you know your progress level therefore should encouraging as you go further, so I urge you to continue seeing the forum as a learning process as you go further cause theirs still lots to learn, and this should also serve as an example to newbies that would come across this post, y'all should see the forum as a place to learn and not an agenda for competition or a get rich quick scheme. 
 OP i checked your profile and discovered you're now In the member ranks, Congratulations and i wish you success on your journey ahead.

Congrats on your new rank OP, I don't see anything to be ashamed of being a newbie. You can't start your steps from 2, you start from 1 before getting to the top, so I don't see anything to be ashamed of as long as you have it in mind that you won't remain a newbie for long, is one step at a time to move to the next level/rank. Everyone on this Forum started from somewhere before getting to where they're now, hard work and never giving up will get you to your goal, and I see you getting to a greater hight only if you keep on pushing.

I soon got used to it and then ignored it and focused on growing my knowledge on btc and crypto in general. I can say I've learnt a whole lot with loads more to learn. Learning is a continuous process and I look forward to growing in continuous knowledge and information sharing here in the forum.

That's the spirit, I'd tell you for free that if you'd never have that mindset of getting to know more about Bitcoin or cryptocurrence as a distraction but only focusing on your rank you won't have gotten to your NEW RANK, you would have lost focus, so learning and contributing to the forum also being consistent was what got you to where you are so I'd advise you keep it up and add more effort to your work.

Once again congrats...

The joy in moving from one rank to another should also have the excitement that you know better than what you used to know that is more knowledge, and that is why you have been moved to another rank. If you were a newbie and now a member in rank, but you still have newbie knowledge about bitcoins, nothing has changed then, you just moved from one rank in forum to another without a follow up increase in knowledge as you rank went up.

Congratulations for your rank up. But you don't have to be ashamed because you were a newbie. For you to grow, you must start from the low level. And that is how children also is. You cannot jump life, there is a due process in everything. Those children who jumped primary education to secondary School will not do well as the ones that started from the nursery School to the university level. So you don't have to jump. Therefore, be proud of your age (rank) at all levels.
You have learned because you started from the grassroot and there are somethings you have to learned from the newbie rank so that when you grow up nobody can convinced you again.

OP Indeed, you act as a motivating speaker to me because your message is also inspiring. Before you can be successful in life, you must first complete a series of steps. The forum is divided into numerous levels that you cannot skip but must follow level by level; the forum rank does not even begin with newbie; it begins with brand new but your hard work will take it to the next level. Being ashamed or not is not a curse but a word of encouragement, the forum is not a place of competition but a place of learning and contributions, which is the most intriguing part, for someone to improve in rank here requires focus, effort, patience, and giving it more time. I started to feel that I wasn't serious about this after seeing people I came before pass me by to rank up but I'm still left behind the corner, I don't see it as envy but as a challenge to me to go for more research and since I started that I see more improvement in me because I started learning new things in the forum that I didn't know before and I need them to participate in the forum, I'm happy for you.

There is  nothing to be ashamed of being  a newbie and you must have to know that nobody was automatically moved or ranked up to legendary because its a gradual  process from newbie to legendary  and everyone on the forum also passed through such process.
I do understand  that ranking is important and I also know the hardworking it takes to grow an account because nothing seems new in the forum and it seems everything  has been discussed earlier  before now.
There was a time that it almost became impossible  to earn merits and there was a time the merits came in without really much efforts even on posts that have been unnoticed and that's a clear evidence quality works has its rewards.

Why do you feel embarrassed to be a beginner? Aren't all the members here starting from beginners? You have to get rid of any shame about your account ranking, because as a result later it will be very difficult for you to adapt to this forum and in the end it will be difficult for you to grow because you feel ashamed because you feel that your ranking is still low. Besides, contributing to this forum is not only seen from the account ranking, even if you post various knowledge and continue to contribute you will be the most important part in this forum.

The key to keep growing in this forum is to keep learning and don't be lazy to read. Try to combine consistency, concentration and focus to achieve goals. At least this consistency can approach the target of the goal setting you want in this forum.

I do not understand the reason anyone should be ashamed of the newbie status. At every point in time everyone here was a newbie.
There is no organisation or group of people that you will join or start off as a pro. You will need to pass the due process and grow through it.
You should not be ashamed of your newbie status, rather you should try to contribute positively to the forum as a newbie so that in few years time when you will look back at where you started you would be proud of yourself.

Meanwhile rank has nothing to do with your level of contribution. A newbie can contribute more effectively than a senior member if the newbie has good knowledge of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.

[GiftedMAN]

Learning is a continuous process and I look forward to growing in continuous knowledge and information sharing here in the forum.

I can say that your growth is inevitable here if you keep following the right track in learning and also sharing your experience and knowledge with members here. Your ability to make more research and stay very active in the forum and also read will determine how much growth you will get within a short while. Just as you have said, your focus should be on growing in knowledge I believe with that you won't find it difficult to grow in the forum I assume you know what that means?

[lalabotax]

This thread was over a year ago, but finally up again. Maybe this is one of the motivations for newbies that ranking up is not an impossible thing to do. Everyone needs their own process.

Being a newbie is part of the process.
So in my opinion there is no need to be ashamed when holding a newbie rank. Because indeed everyone here has experienced being a newbie. And in the end, times will flow along with how we all go through the process to become a higher rank. This may not be easy for many newbies because of several things related to rising ranks. Likewise with me, I think it's quite difficult to move to a higher rank. But at least, as long as we want to try, there will be progress. On the other hand, sometimes we are too lazy to make posts that are better, informative, and also appropriate. But sometimes we just want to catch up on posts. This is what I often experience or maybe some of the other members too. But one thing is certain, when you have passed the newbies stage, it means that you are getting better in a number of ways including knowledge. So at least we can share something with each other, because this is one of the functions of this forum.
