Good idea. I would be happy to offer myself as a welcome wagon person. I don’t tend to clobber people before I have an understanding of their point of view and we may find some interesting people who have small blogs that they are wanting to share more than “pimp”.
I’m not much of a clobberer in general.

I probably should have been nicer to that guy who was a gay furry fox on Second Life.

I’m not a newbie, but I’m still learning things on here,
so I’m in favor of talking and maybe changing some minds
with the facts. Of course, shaming them outa unrealistic
notions can’t hurt.

Well, regarding bloggers (of which I am one) we have a "Bloggers and Personal" forum for that. So, as long as blog articles are posted there it seems AOK.
I definitely agree that we should give all new members the benefit of the doubt.

I think the biggest mistake newbies make is that they have a “mr. know it all” attitude.
Some also like to post vanities where they are lecturing people.
If the new ones could add some humility to their first posts, it would go a long long way to solving the “hostility” problem.

I think it is a great idea. I came on here in 1999 and was welcomed by some Freepers who taught me how to post. Deport was always helping me when I coded something wrong to find out what I did wrong.
You want to feel lonely be supporting George W Bush when I came on here in early 1999. Not too much support then. :)
Think a lot of people are concerned about trolls including me but if they turn out to be a troll can we take them out after killing them with kindness?
Seriously, I agree we need to be more welcoming, and I am talking to myself as well. First tendency if someone is new and posts info that is really dumb they are a troll, but that might not be the case. Will start giving people the benefit of the doubt.
I am in for giving new people a chance and will welcome them on board! Caveat if they tout Obama, all bets are off.

I only got bothered once when I was a newbie, so then I stepped back and did more reading than posting.
Maybe you need some type of way to alert people that someone is a new user, like a little avatar or something else distinguishing fortheir first 30 days?

We need to be far more welcoming to new members and guide them into how to use our community best.Is this another "Newt" post?

And look at all the people who left or dropped out for the most part because of the gang mentality of some hater groups-- like the anti-McCain crew, or the anti-Romney crew, or the folks who must go on every single thread about Israel and Jews and say: "why do all the Jews vote for democrat? why are they such idiots?" It's not very welcoming. Especially considering that Jews that are on FR must generally feel they have some shared conservative values. I've wanted to quit sometimes because of the gang of rageaholics.
Just some thoughts. And I think anyone who doesn't love Bibi should be banned.

de them into how to use our community best. With this said, we are issuing a challenge to our long time Freeper family. We would like to start up a welcome wagon type of ping list or group whose job it is to welcome new members, show them the ropes, and guide them through our community.Great idea. It took me months to get up the courage to post, then although I didn't get hammered I was unsure if I should even respond to people on my own threads for fear I would be "bumping" my own thread for number of views. That's noob thinkin' for ya.
Sign me up.
