Once again I am amazed and impressed by how this group works together (and how thoughtful and tireless Hanford is). What many forums wouldn't have even taken very seriously has been, and continues to be, seriously addressed and intelligently considered by many. I wish I could buy everyone in here a Mai Tai but I'm nearly broke this week. Hey! It's the thought that counts, though, right?

I agree that an FAQ would be a wonderful thing but I hate the idea of expecting Hanford to have to put the thing together. There probably aren't nearly as many Frequently Asked Questions are there are, simply, Different Questions Asked Constantly. The point made about "Ripping Right In and Playing" is absolutely true, too. I recall posting an Introduction on my first or second visit here and then noticing the "New Members Post Here" thread. I might have avoided this by reading an FAQ but I probably would've just scrolled to the bottom and clicked "Continue" like I do when I'm loading new software.

The Newbie Notice is a great idea. Perhaps, as other problems crop up because of a lack of familiarity with Tiki Central, the Notice could be modified or added to to address them.
