I'm cool with forcing people to do it.

I'm on a torrent site that, when you don't log in for too long, requires you to post a video of yourself doing the dougie. Holding people to one new tag for one new post isn't against the Geneva Convention.

I think I've promoted 2-3 people.

People do far better at a task when they understand why they're doing it. That's the reason I won't vote for forcing people to post to #newtohubski.

I would, however, vote for making primer the next step after finishing registration and including a paragraph or two about what to do next. Hubski isn't exactly common-sense for the tone set by an average Internet discussion. A bit of guidance can go a long way towards inclusion.

Speaking of the primer: mk, the primer text runs out unexpectedly at this line:

    You can view all posts using the global feed. Exceptional content can be found under

Doesn't seem planned.

Thanks. Will rectify.
