[Promocodeudo]

As a newbie I have been wondering what to do in other to grow and contribute to the success of this forum with my little knowledge.

Where am I not getting it right?

I need orientation from senior colleagues here.

Bringing topics that are useful and not existing on this forum will help you. But, first of all, be attentive to posts that are merited, check how the posts that are giving merits are. Learn from established members, the more you read their posts the more you know better. Use bitcoin on wallets like Bitcoin Core, Electrum, Trezor and the ones you have interest in. The experience you have about the wallets will help you. But what that matters most is for you to learn from what established members that are receiving merit are posting.

[Zaguru12]

If I can deduce from your post, what i understand is the fact that you are looking for a way to grow in ranks. Having made up to 30 post and still lack merits. First I sniped into your post history and saw that you’re mostly active in the bitcoin discussion board and, the politics and society board. The former board actually gains attention but that if you engage or create meaningful threads and not making repeated threads, as for the latter it doesn’t get much attention by merit source because most of the topics there are off bitcoin related and some merit source deem it not worthy for merit.

To add to what Charles-Tim has said I would just advise you to post less and gain more knowledge about the forum and bitcoin itself. Once you acquire this little knowledge you can be able to make contributions by either helping people with there questions or create threads that is beneficial to the forum.
Been eager to grow in ranks only gets you to break some forum rules that could possibly get you banned, be calm and learn

You can’t contribute much with little knowledge. You can use the forum broaden your knowledge since almost every important information about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general is already posted here.

You can use this knowledge that you accumulate here to share it to other newbie like you when they are asking or when you are in discussion on other user in different threads. You should do a lot of research and don’t be contented on your limited knowledge if you want to contribute because everyone here is already familiar on crypto basic knowledge.

Do research, accumulate knowledge and past the torch to other user. That’s how the forum work.

Read more and gain knowledge that is the thing you should focus now to gain knowledge about cryptocurrencies, blockchain technology, and forum itself then only you can contribute to the forum like helping someone to resolve a query then you will be appreciated with merits.

Forcing yourself to rank up for that you must me keen of making post instead of reading others that is probably where you are doing wrong.

No offense, but when I checked your profile, you mostly posted on Politics & Society? Why is that so? This community is so rich with discussions about Bitcoin and Altcoin and if you want to grow then you have to explore other boards as well.

Just be yourself, don't put to much pressure on yourself, and as I have said, it's better if you will go around and play with this community first. Just continue to accumulate knowledge here. You may want to to bookmark topics that are interesting to you and then comeback to read it.

And if there is something not clear to you, then ask, simply as that.

[tabas]

Keep on researching and more reading, most of them should be interesting topics and the current trend in the crypto market. Since you've said contribute, you've got little or big knowledge and if you've seen that knowledge hasn't been shared by someone then do the intiative to share it to the community and that's a contribution. If you're more into Politics and Society discussion then focus in there if that's what you think you'll excel and not just that, make sure that you're enjoying discussing those topics there. It's important for you to enjoy and show that you're natural and truly have passion over all those topics.

[GiftedMAN]

When you talk about growth in the forum do you really mean growing in knowledge or merit? Having made up to 30 post I believe you have gotten some insight on how things are done here but if not, I will encourage you to do more of reading, give your attention and concentration on getting more knowledge of cryptocurrency especially Bitcoin and when you have information that can bring solutions to the problem or answer to the question of users of the forum then you will be regarded as a good forum member. On the other aspect of growth which is merit, your useful contribution will earn you a lot of merit no need to beg for it just be real and have a good conversation mixed with educative information then you will see how what you seek for will come with ease.

Always DYOR and always do your own diligence to gain more knowledge and skills in the forum. Know that learning in the forum is limitless and that you should keep on learning from the high quality posts of other members. And when you're knowledgeable and well experienced in the forum, then it will be easier for you to share significant post so that other members will have something to learn from it.

As a newbie do what your rank says, read all the rules, and accustom yourself to following all the rules here so many forum rule breakers are from members who failed to read and practice the rules when they are new to this forum, they just post do their things and they just realized it when their posts are deleted and eventually banned.
After reading and absorbing all the rules here you can share what you know about any subject here in this forum.
I'm sure you're going to be a good member of this forum, when new members asked and search for what needs to be done to contribute to this forum, end up being a good contributor to this forum.

The first basic thing to do as a newbie is to understand the concept on how the Forum works, the forum has so many posting section that has rules and guidelines, try and deduse your words to be very understandable.

As a newbie remove the mindset of ranking up at a blink of an eye, one of the things should do is to study and follow the higher members footsteps, You can also search for forum rules to know more about guidelines as regards on how you can make a quality post.

[mamesso]

Read posts by seniors who can attract the attention of other users, you can learn from these posts how to make quality posts and ideas from the topics raised. Limitations of knowledge have been experienced by all users who have just joined the forum, those who have become established users due to a strong desire to always learn. Anyone can contribute to the forum and there are many ways to do it, you can create useful topics for other users in your own way, besides that you can help answer other users' questions with the right answers and according to what want.

What is your definition of growth on this forum and why do you really think you have to do anything publicly on this forum?
If I don't understand something enough, I simply learn from others, and read other people's posts and thoughts.
When you learn enough about a topic, you will be able to participate in the discussion and give your opinion.
There's really no need to rush, take the time you need, follow the different topics on the forum and when you've learned enough, share your thoughts with us 

[Outhue]

Just be yourself, do not chase anything without asking, some questions might sound stupid to you but still ask so that you get people's opinions and that could help you a lot, also if you know more about a question that's been asked then contribute, that's how you will grow higher on the forum.

You must have a reason for been on here, and I remember that the first time I came on here was about crypto investment and to my surprise this forum is all in one package with everything crypto-related, I was able to learn more than just crypto investment, I learn more about crypto mining and crypto trading.


Just be yourself.

[Accardo]

Always provide value to the forum at all time, focus on being knowledgeable, such that you'll understand almost every discussion that is opened in the forum. Don't respond if you don't have enough information to share on the discussion. But, I'll advise you to create threads on helpful bitcoin tips for newbies, always check if such thread already exists before creating the thread. Duplicated threads can be removed or locked. If crawling all the sections in the forum is tiring, you can focus on few boards that seem easier to contribute and share your thoughts. In a short period, your account activity and brain will adapt to the forum. It get easier everyday, but a bit difficult to come back if you break the daily posting routine.

[nakamura12]

After getting familiar in the forum then you can start doing what's best for everyone like sharing new topics like news and more. By doing that means you are trying your best in contributing to the forum. Remember, criticism will also help you find your mistakes and become better than before and also don't forget to follow the rules.

You are just two months old in the forum and seem to be worried about why you have not gotten any merit after about thirty-two posts. I  can see from your post that you are putting some effort to make meaningful posts. I checked through your post history and I just gave you your first merit. You need to be dedicated to learning from others on the forum and do your research.

Merit shouldn't be your target but how to learn and contribute meaningfully to the forum. This is because you will get enough merit if your post answers a question, add value or bring something new to the forum. Don't restrict yourself to one or two boards, because with a dedication to learning you can contribute to more boards. You have come to a school, so learning is the first and last rule.

Never stop learning in the forum as the more you have stocked knowledge, the brighter your future will be in the forum. Also, gain more experiences too because personal experiences when shared to other people, then your post will become more realistic and convincing to them. And in order for you to grow in the forum, give respect not just to the superior in the forum but even to those who are considered newbies. That way, you will have something significant to contribute by serving as a role model to every forum member.

It's important for you to enjoy and show that you're natural and truly have passion over all those topics.

Invest yourself in those crypto related topics so that once you gain high knowledge on it, it will be easier for you to share what you have learned. And of course, be ready to defend your answers as it’s the best way so you can be trusted by other members and learn from you. And not just only focus on broadening your knowledge but also learn to accumulate a lot of experiences as well. When you have both knowledge and experience, it will be easier for you to get the sympathy of other people and just easily believe on what comes out from your mind.
