As I commented in the original post that thenewgreen mentioned above, everybody came from somewhere, including every founder. Let new users compare out loud Hubski to where they came from (wherever that may be) to their hearts content, if Hubski is different and its own animal (it is) they will come to that understanding through asking questions and engaging. In the meantime, there are more than enough tools to block repetitive, abusive, or otherwise low quality content and users (though really, this latest influx of people has been great). But again, regarding the influx of new users, I say welcome, and keep asking questions. If #askhbuski is overrun with newbie questions so be it. That's what it's for. Asking Hubksi. We can block it temporarily if we get sick of it ;)
