Usually a first post is something like "Titcoin to the moon!" or... "Why won't my Electrum wallet connect to the internet?" or even "Hey what the hell happened to my shipment of Black Arrow miners???"

Human differs, our ability to understand this will sure save us many challenges. The above sample topics you listed which according to you is what a newbie should post does not relate to me. I was not a newbie with zero crypto knowledge. Why should I on my first post begin to make topics that are not peculiar to me? If the above topics are what newbies should post, I am sorry I was not aware. Your statement however is in support of the proposal of the OP(Orientation for Newbies).
Assuming I was informed that that is how first posts look like, I would have started with a topic like "Hello House! Please help me, what is Bitcoin?"

- Don't start posting in Meta right away or engage in obvious merit-seeking behavior. It means you have developed an understanding of where people post and what they post in order to get merits, in all likelihood due to prior experience with the forum.

Sir, will it interest you that someone can dedicate day(s) to reading in different boards without contributing, especially as a newbie?
Sir, do you still remember that this forum is user friendly?. Such that at every board, there is a mini board or what I can call board description, which states the kinds of posts to be made in such a board. A newbie can approach the board and see a description as "This is where discussion about Bitcointalk Forum happens " automatically that user understands a topic that fits there. So, I don't think it should be a surprise that a newbie made a post in the appropriate boards.
However, sir I appreciate your directions and advice, but it rather demoralised me instead of encouraging me. I have many things in my mind to share and ask, but it seems I can be using PM to get some answers and directions, because I am unsure of the post to make that will fit without gross misunderstanding. Thank you!
