Do You Consider This To Be A Friendly Community?

[JollyGood]

If you advise others they can earn from signature campaigns and they try to enrol but are overlooked (or not successful) then maybe it would cause issues between you and the other party. Partly for that reason, I cannot recall the last time I mentioned the forum to anybody in real life but the way you described it seems to sound like a case of "damned if you do, damned if you do not"

To be honest, very rarely I share about this forum with my friends. Sadly, everyone just looks to earn money, most of them aren't able to struggle to learn. Sometimes I share who has good English skills, but they ask, Can we earn from here? So I said no, you can't. Because if I say you can earn and encourage them to join, then they will blame me later and would ask, Why can't we earn? The community is friendly enough for learning purposes but not for earning. This has to understand who wants to join.

Hi, I am an occasional user of your forum, and am curious how people will react to the question: Do You Consider This To Be A Friendly Community? It wouldn't take long to find examples of both the good and bad, so let's keep it simple.

Yes, definitely the community will reciprocate what you're given to them. If you are harsh to the community, they too will be harsh to you, and if you are using Bitcointalk the way it is intended to be and you follow the forum's guidelines you will have a pleasant experience.

Questions: In general, do you think Bitcointalk.org is a friendly place, and/or would you be really comfortable telling close friends (offline, in the real world) that they should come here and sign up?

I referred some people here and if there are topics about Cryptocurrency that I need to discuss from friends and people I make discussions on this forum as my reference, I don't think my weekdays will be complete without me interacting to the community.

Ro answer your question, I would need to draw your attention to your intentions, if your intentions align to the values of the forum, then definitely you shouldn't find this forum not to be a friendly enough environment but otherwise, it's definitely not going to be, have you read the rules and guidelines of the forum on the "Beginners and help" board, if you have and are sure you can abide under these rules, then I don't think you should fi d issue having a friendly environment in the forum.

Like someone sis mentioned on this thread, for knowledge sake, I think you a re in one of the best environments to get Bitcoin knowledge at almost all levels then if for frivolities and nonchalancy, you may not find here really friendly as there are rules just like every working system would have, so get your intentions right and have you a very perfect and awesome environment for the best experience.

A Newbie posted a question (to which he could easily have found the answer himself) on the tech board. He got the answer he wanted on Bitcointalk, then posted this:

I am glad to find this forum. I asked this on reddit/bitcoin and apparently said something wrong and was immediately banned from the group.  I find it hard to believe that they are so churlish.

It reminded me of this topic.

I think this is a distinctive characteristic of this community.
We are very much welcoming toward good, willing newbies, even when they ask the usual questions that have been answered many times.
Also, we are pretty much respectful of the diversity of ideas which might arise on a such diverse community, without imposing a "cult" of the right answers (very much common in TG channels)
What we are not forgiving is the reiteration of the same error.
But I guess this is another plan of discussion.

Hehehe...first, the community here means the entire members who form the forum and not the forum's rules or admin, so I see less of the practicality of what you wrote as far as this community is concerned.

You don't have to be harsh for some people to be harsh to you and you do not have to be nice for some people to be harsh to you. What matters is to do your thing, obey the forum rules and not care about what anybody says, ugly behaviour is everywhere, it's merely a noise, otherwise, you might hurt yourself. There are enough of them who would make sure of that.

Some people can be condescending when you get a fact wrong or when you support an idea that they do not agree with but this is a rare exception. The vast majority of your interactions will be positive or neutral. You may get into arguments occasionally but there is so many other topics being discussed that you will get over it quickly. Because Bitcoin is a niche interest, you will find that you have a lot in common with most members. In general, it is easy to get along with everybody else.
