Seriously, given that a good chunk of the posts here are inside jokes that fly over my head, how do we expect to get new people to jump in if they don't have a clue as to what the fuck people are talking about? Yes, they should lurk for a while to figure out what's going on before they post, but if many regulars can't figure it out, how will they? And if every former lurker is assumed by the crowd to be a penske sock (as if he's the only socker, but that's a different story) and is treated as such, that doesn't help, either.
And to forstall the "we don't want anyone new here" response, all of us (well, most of us here currently) were newbies once.
