What is the actual importance of Bitcoin? If we merely talk about it as something that "will make people gain more from their investment", especially people who have yet to actually learn anything about it, it might sound like a Ponzi to those people, no?
in as much as gaining the basic knowledge about bitcoin is important, having a mere knowledge without application is a totall waste of time.
No knowledge is a waste actually. If it's not handy for you at the moment it will surely benefit you at one stage in your life. That you are not applying it now doesn't mean you won't apply it later. There are people who tend to understand more of the theory before venturing into practical aspect of it.
Their are times when basic knowledge is important and their are boards and threads assigned for such discussion, and from what has been regularly reiterated here, those that lack the basic knowledge on bitcoin investment have been regular advice to go back and do the necessary research and come back to the thread so they can contribute positively and meaningfully.
There is no need in sending anyone who has no basic knowledge about bitcoin to go back and research elsewhere before coming back here. They can also learn from here. Where is the best place to learn from I not in the midst of people who has been in bitcoin for long and are continually sharing their knowledge. They can learn here, the only thing is they can do more of reading than posting.
