Newbie! Protect your name, it is your brand

[JoyMarsha]

The most valuable aspect of your life in this forum is not judged by the username you answer or the position you occupy, the talent you possess, the influence or power you command in the forum, intellectual ability about crypto, or managerial skills, but by the kind of personality you display in the forum will tell and cover if your username sounds odd.
The username serves as easy identification. It is not used as an attestation for someone but rather it's the integrity of the person is what people look at before any other thing

Reputation, or a good name, is very hard to earn, it can take many years to achieve. Reputation is hard to earn and very easy to lose. Hence some did live up to their names, some didn't.

Yes that is true but not at that, that good name is hard to earn, as for me it is easy but not easier. Because one's character also portray a good reputation for the person. It you obey the rules and follow all the norms in the Society, platform and Society then people within your house will protect your dignity, reputation before even before yourself. One Personal respect is the major things before others. How does he do things when dealing with others means a lot to his or her reputation life. That is why most campaign managers enter the net bad name because of the way they deal with people from the campaigns.

Good name build an individual life, village, Society, and community in the sense that, is this person from this family? Village? Society or community? Just like a Novel. "Ebiakpo the Orphan Boy". Because of Ebiakpo good character the whole community was blessed. So if one has good name, he or she blesses many within. Good name always start from the childhood like from 4 years plus. That is newbies in the forum should behave well to have good name

When you say the integrity of the person. My question is which person? You don't know the person, so it is the username that represents the person. That is why the username is so important. Account like LoyceV has plenty of integrity, but if he hands over his accounts to me, all the integrity that is attached to his account is transferred to me. That is why I agree that it is important to protect your username because it is the username that represents you. No wonder it cannot be easily changed.

I think we should put real name in this forum and we should make our brand by own research.

Placing one’s real name on the forum’s profile, whilst not being evidence of the person being whom he says he is, is not a good idea in general terms. Having people being able to be linked to bitcoins (et all) by their real name is just calling for trouble, be it with their IRS, their government (in some countries), or any ruffian that seeks an opportunity to try to get some crypto off from a given person, be it through social engineering, or worse still, linking data here and there and paying that person a visit with a 5$ (6$ by now) wrench as a companion.

I saw this post of yours being shared on "wall of fame/shame" and I thought I share your post with you and how you contradict yourself. so I am curious, which really is it? do we share our real name as our "brand" as you suggested(which compromises our privacy) or do we protect our privacy from scammers by hiding our identity from them as much as possible?
 

Re: Why beginners should pay attention to their privacy

We should pay attention to our privacy to protect our funds from scammers. We know that in crypto there are a lot of scammers to steal our funds with new tricks day by day.

Username can be a Symbol that can be better known by the majority of forum users if it can make a good contribution to the forum. who doesn't recognize JayJuanGee, DdmrDdmr, mprep, The Pharmacist, fillippone, Welsh, LoyceV and Rikafip, But I'm not belittling other names who have contributed to the Bitcointalk forum.

It is highly recommended for Newbies to use a user name that is familiar in real life, because the goal is to make it easier for other users to recognize you when you are outside the forum. A good name who has made a good contribution to the forum will have a positive impact on your social media accounts, such as Twitter, Telegram and You Tube. Other users who are fans of you will follow you because you are considered a good motivator for them.

Username don't speak loud, but your actions and activities will tell what truly you are. In the real life i have seen people who bear names that are not good to be called,  but their lifestyle is still better than what they answer.  People bear good names but still not good. Name don't matter,  what matters is the character one present to the forum.

[Gallar]

that's right, never use a name that is too strange in this forum, because that is your identity,

don't fake your own identity, because this is a discussion forum, at least you should know each other,

to be clearer when interacting.

[Smartvirus]

On a forum such as this, our usernames and our words is what we hold and its that unique to every individual. It's the first thing people see and it speaks of reputation through the forum. Reason why account trading is discouraged because, the reputation on the username which must have been hard built would is still there but not uphold.

Username don't speak loud, but your actions and activities will tell what truly you are.

On the contrary, the forum is not the real world is it? Hence, your activities is a reflection of what could be of that real world. As a newbie or beginner in general, you have a choice to choose a part that would speak well of your person in the real world as the forum is a direct extension of the world.

Truth be Hold, thy Holy Grail, thy way out of Trouble, Thy Road to Salvation.
all in all i say it certainly shed light for me on what i have been doing wrong across other Forums.

As soon as I learned about the Bitcointalk forum, I wanted to create an account. I had the name Bigdaddy in mind, but someone had already used it to create an account before me, and I liked it, so I added a H to create an account. There are a lot of people with unusual names on this forum, I mean Names do have a short-term impact, but when you consider a person's work, you reward or compensate him based on that effort, not on his name.
