Here are the proposed...
Rules For n00bs
I think, first, a definition of n00b is in order. Five years should be the Im not a n00b anymore parameter.
But, I also think a n00b should not be allowed to make a vanity for their first year, unless they are asking for assistance in a specific area, like tech help, for instance.
Also, a n00b school should be mandatory. Who can post what, when, and where, and ALWAYS remembering that Preview is your friend, would be the first months lesson.
Then, on to Admin Mod worship and fear lessons for the next month.
After that, learning to highlight each posters name to determine who is or is not a n00b, followed by learning to virtually genuflect in the presence of FReepers of the Classes of 1997-2000 and practicing in front of a mirror (proof such as a video of said practice would be required) and an informal curtsy with the salutation of Greetings, your Royal Highness, would fill the third month.
Simple courtesies afforded to FReepers from the Classes of 2001-2003, such as Yes, Sir/Maam and learning self defense techniques such as STFU! and KMA! with, at least, 20 hours of certified practice, would account for month four.
Month five would be an exciting month, as a n00b would be allowed to make their first post in the Bloggers and Chat forum, but ONLY under the supervision of a non-n00b. One per week, for four weeks, and they WILL be critiqued!
Month six would coincide with a FReepathon. The n00b would be required to follow a Senior Non-n00b (SNn) around after the SNn made and started a FReepathon thread. The n00b would then be responsible for thanking each poster for their thoughts and contributions, no matter how trivial and cheap they are. They would ALWAYS include the sig of the supervising SNn at the bottom of the post, so there was no mistaking whos thread it was!
The n00b, having successfully completed the n00b school, would then be on probation for six additional months, at which time their Training SNn will officially certify them a FReeper of the third order!
So, your Royal Admin Mod Highness Sir, if that meets with your approval, I shall click preview now. (see, I already learned that one :) )

Who among us is 100% kosher in our conservatism? What’s the litmus test for that, anyway? For example, I’m pro-gay-monogamy based on the bedrock principle that it’s none of anyone’s damn business who lives with whom doing what. I call that conservative, many don’t. Vive la difference! If we all agreed on everything, that’d be boring. Instead, let’s focus on what we do agree on, and then sport with each other around the edges.

The example is flawed. I wouldn’t support a man to be my rabbi if he fit your description because he would not be following Jewish law and he would be breaking civil law. Nor would I support him running for an elected office because he would be a law breaker and would need to be in jail. A socially liberal republican I would consider voting for if, for example, he were running for office in CA and was fiscally conservative, and a viable, more conservative candidate was not running.

I’ll give anyone the benefit of the doubt EXCEPT...
Even though most CAN write, few should.
Or at least fewer.

I used to haver a file in notepad with 15 or so close tags of each type.
/i, /b, /blink, /font color, /font size, /font, etc.
Whenever I came across a thread that had gone bonkers, I posted it a time or two until everything cleared up.

I believe you. Someone just posted that it works on Firefox 3.5.3.
I’m on IE and no longer see it work. I thought JohnRob just had it disabled!

Also, this picture is for humor purposes, although I'm sure that CG probably won't like it (tough luck):
Thanks to FReeper jslade (who makes pretty much all of us look like newbies) for posting it here.
