Awesome guide, helped me.

 

thanks

 

Really good guide for newcomers.
Thanks for posting it, hopefully it'll reduce noobs on Sythe.

 

i hope so as well they are so anoyying posting 10000000 threads asking how 2 do a vouch or somethin

 

Great advice for newcomers, appreciate members trying to help out the community.

 

Nice start,
However I'd go into a bit more depth about how vouches work, and how to prevent getting scammed and for example how to trade, like taking screenshots etc.

Goodluck on making this a famous sticky ^^

 

Thanks lured ill do that after i get home from work have 2 start getting ready in 10 mins

 

Nice guide

 

First, you need to work on your grammar. "cant" isn't right. The small things really matter if you want a high quality guide that looks professional. Secondly, you rely too heavily on outside guides to do the work of explaining for you. For a beginners guide you want to shoot off as much information as possible in as short a time as possible. Teach them the ropes in a quick, easy read style format with links at the end to more in depth content. This way they can pick and choose what to read more about based on what they want to know more about or do not fully understand. Thirdly there doesn't seem to be much layout of the guide. It seems like random information randomly strewn together how ever. It needs to flow much nicer.

 

ok SuF ill do that as well now
