It's better to provide Quality and not Quantity...

[Kasabus]

 We are in a forum that provides more learning interaction than just creating gossips and spreading fake news. That is why we need to come up with post that are highly valuable that will bring positive effects on the learners, and that they will use it to improve their way of posting. So let's focus on quality over quantity. This is to encourage every member to acquire knowledge first and analyze the content of the post prior to posting and sharing it in the forum.  If we can follow this, this forum will provide more learning experience not just on part of the newbies but even to the veterans in the forum as well.

However, learning to create quality post does not happen all of a sudden. It takes time and will continue to develop more if we see more quality post in the forum.

Everyone who starts an account to Bitcointalk feels the urge to post like crazy in order to stay relevant.

I am not like this when I started my account here in the forum.  I just like browsing and reading.  I am actually hesitant to reply since I am afraid that my little knowledge is not enough to give a senseful interaction to the thread's topic.  So I carefully read every reply and post if I have enough knowledge on the topic.

But here's the real deal: Quality over Quantity wins every time!

Actually on my first few weeks, I never thought of this thing since I am more on reading than replying.  There are even time when I wanted to reply but found my idea has already been stated on the thread so I just refrain from repeating it. 

To those who wanted to earn merit and to rank up, it is obvious that they should prefer to make a quality posts than quantity. But I do not think that this kind of idea apply to the account who are not after a signature campaign but rather just want to have an interaction and love sharing his idea in the forum.


I do not know why so many people are hostile on newbies that are sharing his thoughts.  As long as the post make sense and help other newbies out there, I think we should not discriminate them.  They maybe a newbie account but it is possible that they know more than what we know.

OP, here's another important tip: Ensure you respect the community rules!

That's the reasons why some of my post has got limited lettered words..
I believe the little I convey through my writings is just enough for the wise ones..
Newbie's be taking it really personal these days to post - saying this in response to what the first reply was all about...  there's time for everything ... A time to learn and a time to execute your thoughts as it'll be very helpful....

Basically what the forum needs is your predictions and understanding concerning bitcoin, theirs something you need to understand concerning bitcointalk kind of communication, what makes a post quality is basically depends on the research you have conducted to bring up new something that Is different from others, so I believe that is how things work's, bitcoin investment and trying make a quality posts that is attractive is base on research, because without a research you can not teach people what is obtainable and new thing they don't know, if what you post is answerable to what you have as questions that means it's a quality because you have impact knowledge on other people.

[Iroh]

Quality almost always beats quantity in everything. Why do you think products of higher quality are often more expensive then another same line of product but with lesser quality despite the both being readily available. People would always prefer quality products to one with lesser quality.

I think it’s applies to probably everything including ideas and opinions being put down here on the forum. People would be more willing to listen and learn from the few words you have to say. And like you noted, quality posts are devoid of gibberish and would be quite obvious the poster knows his onions.
It’s only natural for people to lean towards having more of quality than quantity.

Hey forum family!

I am coming to this post for all new members joining here.
I want to share my advice based on what I have seen in the forum till now.

Everyone who starts an account to Bitcointalk feels the urge to post like crazy in order to stay relevant.

 But here's the real deal: Quality over Quantity wins every time!

Most of them come to the forum full of enthusiasm and are motivated by various matter to post explosively. But they forget one thing about the level of relevance regarding the posts they raise written here. I want to highlight the quality you mean because when it comes to general posts the level of quality will definitely vary according to the reader. So how do you try to see the quantity of a constructive post because when we talk on a general level there will always be a level of difference.

Quality and quantity may be areas that are difficult for us to find in general discussions because there are many discussion threads taking place there. For me, what needs to be done is to master the post so that when they write they know what is actually being discussed and can at least provide information related to the discussion being discussed in it. Constructively, quality and quantity will be assessed differently from one person to another if discussed in general.

[Razmirraz]

This is the reason merit will be given to every quality post, you will be rewarded with Merit if the post you write is considered quality. The merit system is implemented in forum to eradicate trash posts that only pursue quantity of activity to reach new rank. In the past, before the merit system was implemented in forums, there were lots of trash posts spread across various boards. Now what happens after the merit system is implemented, without trying to abandon the old habit of often making trash posts to quality posts, then you will have difficulty rank up.

Quality posts will help build the reputation of your account in the forum, when the knowledge you have is poured into the forum to benefit other users, you will be rewarded with merit and will help yourself in achieving the highest rank. Here you have to rely on yourself, only you can determine which direction to take, whether you want to immediately reach a new rank or remain a newbie forever.

Newbies Stop Teaching When You Need To Learn.

It couldn't be any clearer.

Is that the reason why you are having 9 posts and 9 activities since 2018? It's annoying seeing this type of thread coming from newbies. I believe you can not even differentiate between a good quality posts and shit posts and here you are trying to teach others..

OP, here's another important tip: Ensure you respect the community rules!

Account connected: Naida_BR (Profile has been Autobanned)

sharing advice when you are supposed to be learning is not the right way to go.

It’s ironic that a newbie with 0 merits and little experience on the forum would be giving out advice and guides to other newbies on what is net positive for the forum. Unless ofcourse you’re not a newbie and this is an alt account.

A beginner shouldn't be teaching, they should be learning, but it's obvious that you are not a beginner, your account has already been tagged as an alt account.

Consequently, OP goes on to my ignore list.

[Helena Yu]

We are in a forum that provides more learning interaction than just creating gossips and spreading fake news.

This forum adopt free speech, even you create a gossip, rumor, spread fake news, conspiracy etc the forum will not 100% delete your post, infact there might be someone like about that and willing to give you merit since merit is subjective.

Busted!!! Any idea why he was banned in the first place?

He took someone else article without providing the original source which actually contradict what he said using his alt account.

Totally agree with  you, no offence to OP...you can't have this little amount of  posts even if account is 5+ years  old and act as the expert around the forum, unless it's an alt  !!

Btw, If someone is going to teach/recommend something to others then let them walk the talk and not  do things based on speculation. I guess that's why dzungmobile stated in the early  posts that "Newbies Stop Teaching When You Need To Learn."  this is because experience is the best teacher that everyone agrees too.

I understand your point but you should also know, when you join the forum or any thing new, you have to make yourself known because when you're not known for quality it'll be somehow difficult for your post to be rewarded. There are alot of post on the forum so you have to make yours standout and you can do that with been very active and also having your posts full of quality. What I'll advise is to post as you see fit but don't spam instead of just posting one or two post and think you'll begin to get rewarded. As a newbie it is okay to not be of all quality because you're basically a learner but as you grow you should improve your quality. The need for everybody to be of quality immediately they start on the forum is why we have people plagiarizing to try to impress meriters.

Real Talk, Real Connections: When you drop a gem of a post, you're not just talking, you're connecting. Dive deep into discussions that light your fire - you'll build bonds that matter.

That's why I enjoy discussing with power that speaks from their thoughts and not having to drop links always or quote others thought. I believe this is a community and our conversation should be mostly of what we know and not what others are saying. I understand people get pressured to look smart and when they drop links it make them look like they know what they're doing but you can also brand yourself to be more of a users that always airs his view and they look reasonable. You don't have to adopt to others styles, if you're a users that enjoys writing, go on and do that but while you do it don't spam the forum and make your post more of quality even though you like quantity as well.

Exactly! Users like these tend to lecture everyone especially newbies but cant applied to themselves. A good poster or someone who understand the content of OP doesnt necessary means to pinpoint those out loud in. Its like he is already judging the newbies without proven himself first.

[PrivacyG]

This is actually funny.  OP wrote a new topic hoping they will get attention and Merits but F ed up their reputation entirely instead.

-----

Account created in 2018 with only 9 posts and zero merit making such comments seems to be weird giving advices to all other members when he/she has not implemented it.It seems like someone just woke and plan to write in hope to get some merits through all these advices but it would work good if you first focus on learning and enhancing your knowledge.

I have lurked the forum for a long time before joining and I knew some stuff many new members do not.  So it is not weird to give advice as a new member though it does seem suspicious at first sight.

I do not know why so many people are hostile on newbies that are sharing his thoughts.  As long as the post make sense and help other newbies out there, I think we should not discriminate them.  They maybe a newbie account but it is possible that they know more than what we know.

It is not being hostile on Newbies sharing thoughts.  OP made a topic with a reason and it is showing.  They wanted attention and / or Merits.  They received the negative attention instead.  I only do not understand why even make this kind of post.  It is weird to post such things on a simple Forum.  Imagine you had a family group on Whatsapp and all of a sudden some body writes a wall of text about how important it is to write quality messages in the group chat over quantity.

Because after all Bitcoin Talk is just that.  A board where the Bitcoin community can have an uncensored chat.  Which makes it weird to write topics as if we were some secret society accepting through rituals only or pages of a poets book instead of a simple conversational board.

And there are members here who write some helpful topics in such a beautiful way.  As if they were really writing some poetic pages of a book.  But then there are people like OP who are treating us all like some Gods or cult which is a different story.

Release a lot of pressure and start talking about anything without needing to make yourself like someone else. You are given the right to freedom of opinion but keep it in an on-topic context and do not violate existing rules. What's more, you don't need to be shy about one or two high-reputation users even if they seem scary to you. Don't just agree and agree with many other people's opinions, but develop your ability to argue as long as it is correct regardless of who you are talking to.

[Distinctin]

The essence of creating an educative and interactive forum is to encourage each member to come up with a good and quality post so that the other members may benefit and learn valuable ideas from it.  This will only happen if all members will take their time to research first and assess the information that they have acquired whether it could be good and beneficial to others or it could create a confusion until others decide to lose interest and leave the forum.

It should be quality over quantity. It's useless to see a parade of posts where the contents are just low and sometimes off topic, than to create a powerful post that contains a very valuable and helpful idea that will encourage other members to do the same.

You, the Expert: Quality posts show you know your stuff. Whether it's advice or insights, be the go-to person. People notice, trust me!
Not Just Noise: Ever scroll through a thread and see a sea of "lol" and "cool"? Let's not add to the noise. Make every post count, cut through the clutter.
Respect the Scroll: We're all busy, right? A quality post respects people's time. Keep it meaningful, and folks will stick around.

You have valid points, mate. All these points you highlighted are very useful when you really want to make a quality contribution to this forum, and when you are able to follow these tips you mentioned, you will gain more knowledge in the forum and you will grow fast in the forum with quality posts.

I am sorry to say OP, but you are supposed to be using these tips you mentioned to make yourself a quality poster in this forum because if you have the knowledge you mentioned, you could have been a member or junior member of this forum; nevertheless, it is also a quality post. Keep learning and keep posting quality posts.

[The Cryptovator]

What are you doing, actually? Because you are doing the same things that you want to prevent others from doing. I still feel you need to learn a lot of things before teaching others. Because you are still a newbie and you are trying to teach other newbies. That's not a good practice at all. I will advise all newbies: before creating a thread, just make sure it's necessary and meaningful. You aren't maintaining the quality that you are talking about. So please spend more time on the forum and learn before advising others.

[Renampun]

OP, aren't you wrong with the advice you gave while your account is a newbie lol

hi @itorai, glad you are on this forum, I see that most of the posts you make have few words, try to provide more than 200 or 300 words (the more the better) in each of your posts because the posts are Quality can be seen from how many words are given, you must be able to improve your literacy every day, I hope you don't give up easily in continuing to improve the quality of your posts every day, here we all learn from each other.

Hey forum family!

Oh buddy, it took you so long to post this thread because you have created your account in 2018 and you have posted this thread in final quarter of 2023. Why you are still a newbie even after knowing about this forum since 2018? I mean anyone could learn and improve their posting in that long duration but you hardly have 12 posts and in this thread you're trying to guide other newbies about the style of posting.

Just be a real person buddy and start making some good posts yourself and get ranked to a higher level before creating threads like this because such threads can misguide others as you haven't reached any good rank level yourself and you're trying to teach others about it.

Sometimes quality matter a lot but sometimes quantity doesn't mean that posts are low in quality and are posted only to increase the post count of a members. Every member has their own posting style and if we keep that in mind then some members tend to make more posts than others but those posts are good in quality while other members make less number of posts but those posts lack quality in them.

I must say that the more a member contributes the better response and appreciation he/she gets from the other members of the forum. A member who makes 10 good and helpful posts contributes more to the community than a member you posts 2 good and helpful posts.
