A good idea. I have also tried this and it was quite helpful by going through my local board threads to understand basic information about the forum and also realized that the forum isn't as hectic as thought when you first visit it and see the not so fancy interface. I also tried to reach out to few senior members of the local board to help guide me on the basics and integral aspect of the forum like the posts and activities count and the merit system.

I believe The reason why most newbies find it pretty difficult to adapt, grow and navigate the forum with ease is often because what they were told before/when joining the forum. Call out some of the newbies here and ask them why they’re here, you’d be shocked to hear their responses. Some of them were actually misinformed and then they come and try to grow with that misinformation which makes it pretty hard for them. Some even get to know what the forum is really about, right after they’ve joined the forum and got to interact with some of the enlightened folks here.
