My first journey in this forum

[reagansimms]

Your assumption about the forum is completely correct, you can find all the information here to expand your knowledge about Bitcoin. Some useful links have been provided for you to make it easier to find the information you need, take your time to read these important topics so you can explore the forum easily and increase your knowledge about Bitcoin.
As a newbie who has just joined the forum, it is highly recommended to read more to speed up the process and understanding of what is being studied. Success depends on how much you want to grow, now you are in the right place to start a new journey in the field of Cryptocurrency. Learn slowly and always enjoy the process.

Which critics are you talking about? Not in this thread, as far as I've been able to read at least, so I guess that you mean in other threads you visited.

I was also taken aback by OP's comment on that too because prior to that I didn't see or read any criticism of their post. Perhaps, OP had expected some form of criticism ahead.

Anyway, OP should also realize on time that as a forum they shouldn't expect every comment to be favourable to them. Reviews/responses come in two shades - positive and critical. That isn't to say anyone is attacking them but rather that people see things differently. OP should grow a thick skin for that. The earlier the better for them. Otherwise, they will easily crawl into their shell when that begins to happen.

You have come to the right place. In the beginning you should develop the habit of reading. If one studies more and more while learning, one's scope of knowledge will increase. There are various boards in this forum where one can learn almost everything about the crypto space from top to bottom. Moreover, if there is any specific subject to know which is difficult to understand, then you can get the correct solution of those subjects through this board because there are many knowledgeable people who can give the correct solution to your specific questions. "Beginners & Help" is the most effective board for beginners. Moreover, "Meta" will help you to know all the issues related to the forum rules and regulations. There are also separate boards for Bitcoin and everything else where you can browse and learn about various topics.

how to earn merit here?

Merit & new rank requirements topic can help you understand it more deeply. Simply put, you can get merit when you help someone on the forum, or provide new useful insights. However, in some cases you can get merits when you take part in challenges in the community, for example @NotATether's topic, he offer 14 merits for users who run Bitcoin Core Node for 14 days and it must be the latest synchronization.

Do you think he'd be patient enough to read through this link you provided if his first post is to ask how to get merits? It's crazy how some newbies put this particular one in front above all else when there are many other things to gain from the forum. You'd argue he's being direct and going straight to what brought him here but then if people like these get merits, I'm sure they would flout some of the rules here.
 Everyday, we see new behaviors from these noobs and I tell you, this user may not come back to reply you or acknowledge that he found the link helpful.

[Marykeller]

OP, I just went through your post history, and it interests me to know that you are putting up everything you are being advised and linked to read into practice for your exposure to Bitcoin and the forum.

Still, from your post history, I can see that you are giving out positive replies to newbies who want to learn about Bitcoin and the forum the same way as you. Keep it up with that, and don't later give up on that your efforts to quality posting are not rewarded with merits because not having merits has made many newbies give up on time to stop being consistent in the forum

[RTX-G53]

Learn about the forum, learn all the rules, follow the rules well. Never do anything outside the rules, and learn more about crypto and btc as you learn. And can go ahead, keep going, you will achieve big rank one day.

I'm well aware that Newbie habits are sometimes bad, but what can I do to prevent them from doing those things? we have all been Newbies in this forum. Don't be too sarcastic, just answer what they want to know, that's what we're here for, helping each other, besides he doesn't share things that are prohibited, have you seen him do that from his post history?

Heh, now you're being sarcastic. ..post history? Last I checked he only got one post to speak of which is this one. I get you, bruh. The essence of being a higher ranking member is so you can guide the new ones who come into this place seeking answers because it's deemed that we know more than they do. I really don't support the idea of badmouthing them when they display their ignorance but sometimes, things just find a way of eating at you especially when they throw every obvious questions.

Welcome to this forum.

You ask for help in an own topic nearly half an hour after you registered. I can only assume you haven't silently read much here before. May I ask why? What hinders you to explore the forum for as much time as needed first. Does anything rush you?

A lot you asked you could've figured out yourself. Finding pinned threads and what purpose they have isn't exactly difficult and/or a mental challenge. Isn't it more satisfying to explore and find answers on your own?

Take your time and maybe ask less to be spoon fed, that would be great. As it was recommended to learn more about Bitcoin, here's my goto place:

Hey Son Of Blockchain (SOB) did you know that aside receiving email alerts when there is a new topic, you can set up the forum's bot by Yet Another BitcoinTalk Notification BOT (merits, mentions, topics,+)]TryNinja where you receive notifications where there is a new topic, you are mentioned, you receive merits etc. I have been using it for a long time now and I can tell you that it helps me stay updated with what is going on in the forum and it is the fastest way to keep up with a thread whose discussion I am interested in. I recommend you read this thread to learn how to set it up easily - How to Setup Telegram Bitcointalk SuperNotifier V2(TryNinja's Bot) on Telegram!

Welcome to this forum. You have already posted in the beginner and help section, you can learn a lot by following the threads of questions asked by others and if you need to know something specific, feel free to ask here. And can follow Meta board to know more about forum. Also follow them for other popular topics like Mining, Trading, Speculation etc. you will find separate boards. And use local boards to discuss with users from your local country.  If you can't find the local board for your country, go to Other languages/locations and use the open topic for your country.

Exactly! Going against the forum rules will get him banned especially if he/she plagiarizes. If the OP will be able to take his time and study the forum rules, every other thing will be easy for him/her because there will be no room for any mistake related to the forum rules. The next thing the OP need to do is to take note of some links been recommended for him to learn about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency especially this one, because this will give him all the basic information and knowledge he/she needs to know abut Bitcoin, blockchain technology, keys and address and lots more  that will help him/her gro fast in thisforum.

You are absolutely right, I also agree with you, having complete knowledge about bitcoin and crypto is absolutely necessary. Because most of the discussion here is always about crypto, and what is the op talking about if he doesn't know about it? And of course the rules of the forum must be followed, moreover, if he does not follow the rules, he will face a lot of suffering.

I hope OP reads all the replies in his thread. it will give him good advice and knowledge. knowing the forum rules is the first thing, and then it's up to him to dig up information in whatever section interests him.
I see OP has made a few more posts, and maybe he's found some knowledge and where he wants to go. I just hope he doesn't make any forum violations that could get him banned.

[Sipurba]

having someone that we could go to every time we have something in mind will be helpful. Besides the rules, there are a lot of things that we have to get used in here, especially in how we interact with various users. Based on my own observation, it is different in main board and local board.

Thus, I think making a relation regarding this forum will be very helpful and it would erase our confusion about things in here while trying to adapt, could be a good consideration to do in order to gain more knowledge effectively and efficiently.

I'm still new here, and thankfully I got recommended to join this forum by someone that I know from internet. As a fellow newbie, I would like to suggest you to do that.

You are new and you will need to learn things that are necessary for newbies.

Basic things include forum rules, guidelines and because it is a Bitcoin forum, you will need to learn about Bitcoin fundamentally too. You will have lot of things to learn and as a newbie, you will feel overwhelming at start.

Yeah, it's natural to have different opinions, some people just try to enforce some or don't agree at all with others, and that's okay, as long as it's in a constructive and non-agressive form.

Congratulations to the Bitcoin Forum. You have chosen a right site if you can be active here regularly then you will be able to earn from here at one time. But of course you have to be active regularly and act according to forum rules. If you can follow the forum rules and achieve a certain rank then surely you can serve yourself well here. You seek help from senior persons to solve any problem, hopefully you will get help from senior persons.
