Keeping it low and chill when you first join any community is a great idea. Unfortunately people really don't lurk anymore, although the inability to register for a while *might* have encouraged people to have a deeper look around, nevertheless it'll certainly show who has been lurking a while or not once the floodgates are opened.
I'm of the belief to not just blindly shit on new users, and only to bully them when they act retarded. On one hand a healthy dose of self control such as thinking like '"yea I probably shouldn't post this, they'd rip me in half" is a good mentality to have to avoid issies, but it shouldn't stop new users from alltogether posting what they think should be shared to a discussion. Why else would you sign up if not to communicate?
It's totally normal to make a few slip ups when anyone is new, and some genuine newfag moments are most likely to happen. But it's one thing to make an oopsie, such as getting a bit confused here and there and missing a joke, not understanding a certain feature or board fully, or not knowing the lore of a certain person and missing context...
But it's another thing entirely to just straight up be schizo+fed+rage+sperg+doom+simp+selfdox+whore+troon posting nonstop only days after you made an account. A lot of the times it spirals into insanity rather fast. I've seen plenty of people blow up with attention and become the weekly forum cow because they either straight up didn't even know what Kiwifarms was about or couldn't be bothered to read the big massive sign that said "DON'T DOX YOURSELF RETARD" (paraphrased), and as a result they weren't prepared for the responses.
These are the people who won't read shit and won't last long here, be it a ban or chosing to leave.
I mean who hasn't taken a few Ls on the chin? Shit happens man, this is the Internet, doesn't mean you're an instant retard. Who cares if you posted cringe once or twice? no one is taking it *that* seriously, who's counting scores?
If you have a sense of humour about you and can laugh at yourself once in a while, then what's the big deal?
The ones who can't take the ribbing and sperg out instantly simply won't have a great time here, they just won't be able to laugh with the rest. (Un)fortunately you can't just read the minds of people who just signed up, they need to post bit so you get the measure of them.
Fun times for shitposters, not so much for the mods. I hope you're paid extra silver for the Christmas crunch!!
Right... Now that is cleared up, I am pleased to see that my meat is indeed, not fresh.
Man I was really hoping for another pink triangle sort of thing, picture of the steak emoji besides it perhaps? at least then you'd know the real fresh meat from the fake posers who are hucking their discount meat far past the sellby date
