(Continued from another thread.)

I'm thinking we could use a couple more topics; the first being a locked and stickied "Read Me" reference thread, with our basic rules and some links to our most popular pages. The second would be a Welcome thread, for new users to say hi and get a better feel for our community's spirit before making edits and joining more serious discussions. Don't get me wrong, the automated posts the Mods have set up are very welcoming, the Wiki's pretty easy to use, and you're a warm and friendly bunch, but it's still awkward and a little scary to put thoughts and feelings out there in front of so many strangers! I've been here a couple of weeks now, and I still get nervous that I sound stupid when I post. I can only imagine how much harder it must be for our young and ESL users, and am a little worried that we might lose more of them than other groups because of this.

Keep in mind, these are just suggestions - these aren't huge, Wiki-breaking issues, and I'm not saying we all have to be "Best Friends FOREVER!!1!". But if we can encourage more people to share their knowledge and build this little community even further, I think that's worth discussing.
