What are your best tips for getting started and utilizing the SAP Community Network platform?

In addition to Getting Started also check out the blogs in About SCN space, these would be on my "must read" list:

7 tips for posting content on SCN

To someone completely new to both SCN and SAP I would suggest first to read discussions, blogs and documents in the space of interest and try to get a feel for how others communicate. It might also make sense to start following an author whose posts you particularly liked and/or who has similar interests. Then in your Activity stream you can see what that person is doing on SCN and this might lead you to other interesting material. This is how I sometimes find "hidden jems" on SCN, e.g. the blogs that are a year old and went unnoticed until someone I know liked them.

I'd also suggest to wait for at least few months before you start writing blogs/documents, but I see it's already too late (ouch, that really should've been posted as a discussion). In any case - if any of your content gets rejected please don't take it personally and just make it a learning experience instead.

Thanks for your feedback and useful insights, it is much appreciated.

I was sharing my thoughts on sustainability for the blogpost and can see how the request for others opinions would warrant a discussion. It would be helpful if you made that suggestion rather than pointing out a miscue.

Active participation and maintaining Good behavior.

These are two tips I would suggest everyone to follow. If you want to make maximum out of SCN, you have to give in something.

You can use SCN plateform to

• Share your knowledge through Documents/blog
• Provide solution to other's queries
• Seek solution for the issues you face

To get able to do this, first you need to find your respective forum. Then a must Rules and engagement as Chandra has mentioned. That is a mandate !!
