Seems like this place is going to be growing even more, possibly exponentially. Looks like you added some mods, which tells me you might be thinking the same thing.
Idea: Add one more tab to the menu (Hot/New/Rising/Top) and call it "Newbies" or something so new people can be directed. I suggest it be a top 20 posts you think are most helpful to newcomers.
That could cut down on "hey, what's Q" "is this real?" kind of stuff, and keep the boards clean.
If you like the idea, this thread can be a place for everyone to nominate posts that could be in that list.
Wish we could tag posts, too. There are so many posts of the same bloody thing over and over again, of things from days ago as well as things posted a few minutes earlier. If they could somehow be grouped, or if a warning could pop up for reposts of the same links, it'd help clean things up a bit.
