The first thing you should to is stop treating this as a community of cultists. It makes me feel weird.

We have no Overlord, that is unless you submit yourself to Foxpup and start cycling really fast for Merits. Then you may have one. Although I do have a feeling Foxpup may want to throw me in the pits of hell for using the word 'Overlord', it seems kind of inappropriate.

Now seriously, imagine this was simply a Facebook group. There is no need to introduce yourself, people will remember you if you shine well enough here. There is no expectation that you are a Bitcoin guru, nor do we punish any body for not knowing. How would you feel NERVOUS to be here is beyond my understanding.

We are all here to share thoughts about the thing we like, the hobby we all in theory have. Answer to topics you like, start your own interesting topics if you have good ideas but make sure they were not already posted a thousand times before by making use of that Search button too.

If you often read greetings from newbies, you may notice that those people who come to the forum by chance, without any kind of recommendations and warnings, are more sincere than those who write greeting posts with some kind of curtsy. Newbies who come for "money" undertake to become useful for the forum, to bring "benefit" or "contribution," no matter what they call it. But for the most part, and to be honest, if I admit it, an ordinary person should only have personal interest, without any kind of promises, and so on. Those who modestly read subsequently show themselves more than such statements about asking for "nuggets of wisdom." Roll Eyes

OP, if you find the strength to read your open topic, take this into account. You, newbies, look better when you are truly simple and sincere without "curtseys" and using high-flown words.
