I read different articles of newbie particular in beginners and help board and I notice that so many of the newbie have in mind that bitcointalk is an office to fetch and earn money. And it's noted that the primary agenda of making bitcointalk is to have a different reasons and suggestions of making the problem of bitcoin to be lesser, I will say some people are not informed of why bitcointalk is been created and its the reason why everytime some newbie make first and second post you know that their plan of registering is to earn a bitcoin.
Firstly there's a reason this forum has some privileges that gives its members the opportunity to make money while they're members of the forum. We're in the 21st century and social medias where we spend majority of our time has implemented an avenue for their members to be able to monetize their hobbies and passions, the forum couldn't be any different. The forum isn't against you making money while you're using the forum but against abusing such privilege or using the forum just for the sore purpose of making money from here. We shouldn't have the mindset of just making money from the forum but are free to do so when the opportunity comes that's why we have service boards for announcing service we can offer for exchange for Bitcoin.
Newbies shoudn't consider the forum as just an avenue to make money or they'll miss the beauty of the forum. The forum should be used as a medium to pass on knowledge to the younger generation of Bitcoiner and a means to learn from the OGs that were in the game before we came. There are lots of knowledge on the forum and this should be our main focus (how to benefits for those knowledge) and not how to make money. Knowledge and Information is wealth and that should be our focused any other thing should be extra.
Personally I think that earning money or incentives can be a motivating factor for people to be more committed to reach their desired goals. So I think that it doesn't matter if it's money that is the motivating factor for a newbie, or he considers bitcoitalk as an office, what matters is that you have to be committed and follow the rules and regulations of the forum in order for you to be ranked. Let money or whatever motivate you, but get the job done first, learn passionately about bitcoin and all it's complex technicalities and terminologies, learn how to make money with bitcoin, make your contributions in the forum with quality posts. Hopefully in the short or long term, reward will come.
