when you find one, let me know. i'm not even a jr member yet! working on it... You'll get to a member status veru quick. Just find some topick where you can write everything you know, go to he off-topic, you can find something there. Cheers! Activity only increases 14 every two weeks, it would take some time for him. Yeah, I think it's actually a decent system. Sure, it's a hassle, but if you really want to become part of the community here, a few weeks will fly by like nothing. On the other hand, if a spammer has to wait like, what, 8 weeks, to become a "member" and get a paid advertising gig, that's an effective deterrent.

sorry for sounding dense, but what do you mean by "paying signature program" ??
You get paid by having an advertisement banner on your signature.

Surely if you create a Signature program, and newbies and Jr Member get like 20 Satoshi for a post. It will not be profitable to create a account to just gain from that?
But give the new guys a taste of it, and also exposure, to encourage them to contribute more.
Spammers can easily be spotted and be banned or deleted. {Or is this to much work?}
I am not here to gain money, I am here because I can see what a massive thing "Bitcoins" are going to be in my country, when this takes off. And I want to be in the front row, when this happens.
We are still in the dark age, when it comes to "Crypto Currencies"
Getting paid to reach that goal, is a added bonus now.
And this forum is there to inform and educate newbies to. Why not give them freebies, and expose them to the currency.
As I have already mentioned, the signature campaigns are not run by the forum staff members but by third parties. You can always contact one of them about implementing a lower tier payment program for newbies -- as long as it does not violate any forum rules -- if it really mattered to you. In the end, they are the ones who are spending Bitcoins to pay for the signature campaigns, and they will be the ones to determine if the Bitcoins that they will spend are worth what they are spending it on.

What do you mean by 'do' exactly? How to pass the time or earn whilst you wait? There's no way you can speed up the process so I'd just contribute as normal and make sure you have enough posts to get the activity points per fortnight. If you want to earn some coins you could try sell some things on the Marketplace here or offer your services in the Services section.

Pointless to have a signature campaign for Jr due to the fact that it is easy to attain that status and you can see that scratchcard campaign pays you a tiny amount. Much better to achieve member status when the reward per post is almost worth it.

To be honest, if I was operating a signature campaign I wouldn't even accept Members as their links are so small and this will obviously have a big impact on the traffic they generate. I think bitmixer is the only deal to accept only Snr/Hero though but that's largely because of their fancy sig design that only works with them.

Things to do while you wait.
READ READ READ everything {I spend hours reading everything, I can on this forum} I also "Google" topics not covered, here. {Must say, not a lot out there}
I view A LOT of video's on Youtube.
And spend a lot of time on links posted here and other sites.
I am hungry for "Bitcoin" knowledge.
Soon I will be able to contribute a lot more, than what I offer now.
From what I see now, my questions, help other "newbies" too.

What that post showed me, was that there is only 1 signature program cattering for "newbies" and "Jr Members"
Do these people have no voice? Or do their voice carry no value?
I have seen many "newbies" and "Jr members" giving very good advice on this forum, and they not getting rewarded.
Should there not be a incentive for "new" people to join this forum? {Forum moderators can simply delete spam}
Now do not bite my head off, I have a right to my opinion.
Signature campaigns are not created by the mods, but by people who wish to advertise their websites and/or services. They are the ones who decide whether your "voice" matters or not. There are good reasons why they do not place a high value on the participation of newly joined forum members though. - New accounts can easily be created. If someone gets disqualified or ejected from a signature campaign, the campaign runners want to ensure that they minimize the possibility of that same person getting accepted again under false pretenses. - A signature campaign's effectiveness is increased if the only content on a participant's signature is a referral link to the website and/or service associated with that campaign. As such, they require participants to only carry their campaign's links on their signatures. Allowing new members to join increases the possibility of one member "farming" all high-paying signature campaigns, thereby diluting the effectiveness of a single campaign relying on such tactics. - Spam can indeed be deleted by mods. However, just because they can doesn't mean that spammers won't try to get past them. Even with the current restrictions, spammers are still trying to game their post count in order to participate in high-paying signature campaigns. You don't tempt the devil, plain and simple. As for an "incentive" for people to join the forum, it is the same as with any forum. You join in order to participate in discussions. The signature campaigns have nothing to do with the forum, so their runners have no reason to bait new people into joining the forum. And one more reason is that when you reach a higher rank, you can make your sig looks "fancier" and get more attention. Perhaps the allowed signature styling should change with activity score / membergroup. Like: - Newbie: No styling (including links) allowed. Max 40 characters. - Jr. Member: Links allowed. Max 100 characters. - Member: Unlimited length. - Full: Color allowed. - Sr. Member: Size allowed - Hero: Background color allowed
This is done, except that Newbies can use 50 characters and Jr. Members can use 150 characters. The style limitations are applied immediately, but the size limitations only apply when a signature is updated. Tell me if there are problems.

Any suggestions? - Get a better understanding on bitcoin, so that you can make constructive posts later. - Take a look at the post history of those getting banned (for example, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=608061.0), to avoid getting banned. - Check https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=615953.0, compare the terms of different programs and pick one you like most. etc.

Alt coin giveaways aren't allowed now unless they're off-site ones. Most of the coins that are gave away or air-dropped for free will never be worth anything anyway. It's just a cheap advertising gimmick to try get people involved.

Most altcoins are scams or pump and dump scheme which have low values, you cannot earn much more than the JR.Member signature campaigns. -ranochigo

OP: there are no signature programs for Jr Member. however, one option that some people take is to buy a forum account to immediately reap the rewards of signature advertising. the account can usually pay for itself in a week or two. you can find forum accounts for sale in the digital goods forum: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=93.0

I woulda thunk you were old enough to be confident that technology DOES improve. In fits and starts, but over the long term it definitely gets better.

yeah i mean off-site ones, not giveaway directly in BTT if you apply fast and get your free coin faster, then sold when hit bigger exchanger that would be worth, i tried last month. 1 shares worth 0.1 BTC i need 133 posts to get that amount when use my existing signature campaign but i agree with, that was cheap advertising gimmick, so i don't buy that coin too bad almost no one offer signature campaign for jr.member Scratchticket only give you a few satoshi (21k satoshi) but you can play in their site and if you lucky, you can get more satoshi wait for 1 month and you'll become member, and then join profitable signature campaign and you maybe ask me, what should i do now, i'm still jr. member? i recommend you to join free distribution or giveaway in alt-coin section
Most altcoins are scams or pump and dump scheme which have low values, you cannot earn much more than the JR.Member signature campaigns. -ranochigo yeah that's true. but it's free and you don't need BTC to buy it, better than jr.member sig campaign what did you mean with jr.member signature campaign which earn much more? i only know sctratchtiket

Well, scratchticket pays, but its rates are too low. You should get to member level then think of joining a good sig. campaign.

Yeah, but most newbs probably don't have the cash to shell out 0.2 or so on a Full Member account. For a lot of newbies the signature campaigns are the first coins they receive.

that's true. though i have to think, this forum has been around so long and bitcoins have become worth so much. i'd be surprised if there weren't armies of lurkers that now want in on the action that have no activity
