When i came into the forum I found It a little difficult finding my way around and could barely relate or reply to some posts but I took it upon myself to learn the ethics and norms of forum and know what it's all about. And as time went by my journey here became easier even though I'm still under a learning process.

I may say that many members here, when they are new to the system, also find it difficult as you did due to the fact that they do not understand the forum properly, but with time and seriousness, they learn to understand the forum properly. But the reason why some newbies find it hard to learn in this forum easily is because of their eagerness to rank up their accounts,so they never find time to learn much about the rules.

I've come to understand that the forum is not a competition and everyone here have a say so far you're not going against the rules guiding the forum. So rather than being discouraged by some negative replys from senior ranking members, let your mistakes serve as your motivation, do not give up and don't be in a haste to do unnecessary things that would get you banned.

If someone understands that this forum is a place for discussion and learning from various people's opinions, I don't think anyone should get offended by other members' replies because it is a free place where someone can express themselves toward others, so any reply should not be a deterrent to any new member. Even senior members of the forum occasionally have negative feelings toward themselves if any of them do wrong thing. So newcomers should view it as a part of human nature and consider it to be part of learning.

we learn everyday and I believe that's one of the reasons why satoshi created the forum, feel free to ask questions so as to learn because the more you remain ignorant about things in the forum the lesser you grow.

The easiest method of learning is by asking questions about what you don't know. So the main thing that high-ranking members expect from newbies is questions, not them trying to teach others in the forum when they don't have good knowledge.
