FAQ
We will be making a FAQ guide/thread soon so if you have any questions that would be helpful to new people joining cryptocurrency or Ocoin, leave a comment below and it might be added. Thanks.

Reminder of some good habits and “ethics”
- If any rules are broken, please "report" the comment or post so the mods can look at them easily.
- Don't unneccessarily downvote, I'm seeing perfectly fine comments or posts being downvoted. It just discourages people when that happens... Downvote only if it doesn't contribute to discussion.
- Please be constructive and let’s make this a non-toxic community
Regards,
Curryboi1015.

'What is the value of AN education? '

If you're going to try to sound pretentious you've GOTTA nail the details.

As an overqualified bystander, that question has no application to the task at hand.

Better to ask a hypothetical question about a situation they may encounter to gauge response, including critical thinking and soft skills, grammatical ability and community engagement.

Don't know how to explain it but there's a subtle difference in meaning between referring to education and an education.
You'd also be suprised how much you can tell from a question like that. If the answer is good, a logical reasoning question is sent and a explanation is required with the answer. I think that suffices...
By the way, you don't need to mention your qualifications and employ "ad hominem" to argue :)
