Newbies can wait for a while to join bounty programs. If one is a newbie, he should learn first about what cryptocurrency is all about and be familiar of how the forum works. The reason why some do not accept newbies is that some just spam the forum because they do not know the rules and to increase the post count, they would just post anything even if is is not related to the topic. Just rank up and learn at the same time. It takes only a little time for you to rank up depending on your effort.
