This, in my mind, is the highest calling of the primer page and the tag #newtohubski. To make the culture and not-reddit-ness of the site immediately apparent, and to connect those new users with one another, in a mutual understanding of 'It's fine if I post, but I have to understand what, and why I'm posting.' Also 'Why a circle-dot is not an upvote' and 'Why a hubski tag is not a subreddit' but those come second to content.create a self-perpetuating culture among new users
are the primer pages and noob links immediately imposed on a new user? How do we guarantee they get the message? Maybe this is a question for thenewgreen, hate to tag you I'm sure you've got way too much on your plate right now.

-No worries, it's a good question. When you joined you should have had a tutorial. That's about what we have at this point. That said, steve is currently in the works on an intro video and we will have links to the primer page at the end of the video.
I just threw up in my mouth a little bit. As a sidebar, did you know that Aunt Jemima was a post-Bellum stock character from Minstrel shows, whose structure bears more than a passing resemblance to Commedia Dell'Arte (though turned on its head) which I still haven't written about.
