What differentiate a quality post from a quack one ?

[ColdLava40]

Hi am new to Bitcointalk, I just started posting threads, and any board and enter to post I try reading the rules first, and what I see first is mostly  "only quality post are allowed here ", but as a beginner I can't differentiate between a quality post and a quack or non quality pos, so what are the things that differentiate a quality post from a quack post ?

Writing in good English might be the first. Go through your write up and check for your self if it's at least readable.

Quality doesn't mean it make sense, it simply means be constructive with your write ups. Alot of newbies don't know how to do this so they keep asking same question over again.

What helped me on the forum was that I developed a habit of studying how reputable and high ranked members wrote. It's not always about posting something eye catchy.

So, do you mean that a post that doesn't make any sense can also be called a quality post? I don't think you are making any sense with this statement, because the sense of a post is one of the main things that makes it a quality post. No matter how good or correct your English is (if you are writing in a global board/section), your post can't be considered a quality post it doesn't make proper sense based on what's being discussed. So, quality does mean the post should make sense.

What helped me on the forum was that I developed a habit of studying how reputable and high ranked members wrote. It's not always about posting something eye catchy.

Good practice, every newbie should do the same thing, they should do more reading than writing until they get a hang of it, but unfortunately, most newbies don't follow this pattern, and they start making threads immediately after joining the forum.

Don't worry too much about it. You'll know right away if your post doesn't meet the "quality post" criteria - it will simply be deleted by a moderator. You'll receive a personal message in my messages notifying you of the deleted post from Bitcoin Forum.

Nah, I will not advise this.
IMO, as I have observed, most new accounts get nuked when they have consecutive posts get deleted.
It also becomes a workload for moderators if newbies have this mindset, to not worry about it too much.

If the forum rules are followed correctly, newbies need not worry about their posting, even until the number 1-12 forum rules.

Let's start with you, OP. Registration date: June 14, 2024. You're not a newbie; your first post, and you're immediately looking for profit. You have alternative accounts, but you haven't gained any knowledge in all that time.

Meanwhile, actively opening new threads that don't bring anything new doesn't stop you. Let's ask you, what's this ? So, are your Bitcoins listed in altcoins?

Bitcoins has been doing greatly this year hitting a alt high of about $126k,

How would you rate your posts?

People are rarely sincere this days but if really you are new just as you have claimed, this are some of the things quality post portrayed:
- A quality post are very informative and educative,  moreover when you see good post it doesn't hide perhaps always noticed in every all aspects.
- A good or quality post is always spammed free, possible every lines and paragraphs always arrive with lasting solution and ideas required in the discussioned thread.
- Do more of reading than writing what you don't know, this part has been so helpful to even me because by the time you start navigating round the forum space reading other thread and post you will know what am talking about. This alone we teach you deep on things you wouldn't have ordinary learn on your own.

Bitcoin talk is a place of endless learning and if you are open and willing to learn you wouldn't be exempted.

It is very clear that there are many criteria conveyed by your seniors in the forum, which proves that the quality of the posts is subjective, you will be very confused about the answers, but I really believe that the most valuable value is in posts that are constructive and also informative, these two points are very important in my personal opinion and I think other people will also agree, as long as you don't break the rules and your posts are on topic, that's proof that you are growing in the forum, additional note, don't provide general information that most people know, the most valuable is information that is rarely shared but it can open minds and be interesting to discuss.

Fuck quality! Say when you got something to say, and that'll be enough.

Well, I would like to add something in it, say whatever is needed and say it with some good words so others can get it. That's more than enough to continue a discussion and make it interesting and helpful at the same time.

You're not so new, at least you didn't register just a few hours or days ago.

My immediate question is: why would you start opening new threads? You've already opened one more topic than I did so far (I don't claim to be any benchmark). Do you really think you have something new and valuable to contribute to this forum (not very likely, also as none of your posts were viewed meritable so far by others)? Think about it.

You already have two posts deleted. OK, can happen. I've a bunch of deleted posts, too, not the end of the world. Usually one doesn't get an explanation why a post has been deleted. Most likely someone reported such a post and some forum rule was likely violated. I for myself try to figure it out why a post of mine has been deleted. It helps to avoid it in the future. I guess, nobody likes own posts being deleted, it hurts own pride.

Did you pay attention to the Unofficial list of (official) Bitcointalk.org rules, guidelines, FAQ and tried to understand them? If not, put it on your agenda.

Put some effort in searching before you open a new thread. Ask yourself, do you really have something of interest and new to contribute? People are lazy with searching and some topics are posted a gazillion of times over and over again. How lame and far from new.

The forum's internal search function sucks a bit, especially for low-ranked users. But there are alternatives, like https://bitlist.co/search or https://talksearch.io


In some of your posts, your punctuation style is annoying to a reader's eye: you sometimes have no space after a punctuation characters. That looks terrible, is less easy to read. Show some respect to your readers and make your flow of words a pleasure to read, it's not too hard.
