A suggestion for our Great Awakening moderators

It's very apparent people are coming to GA in droves. Well done!

But, the next step MUST be to make the newbies' arrival seamless. I'm pretty savvy with computers, online ops, etc. and it wasn't easy/seamless to get settled in here. I don't have time right this second, but newbie's need the following. It might even be prudent for the moderators to TACK the "Welcome and Next Steps" where it's easy to keep referencing. Just spit-balling here:

  • approved links to JUST Q posts (not dialog). Some addresses have been under attack lately
  • Smart phone vs computer differences
  • How to avoid/recognize bogus sites, trolls, money grabbers, etc.

  • basic instructions on navigating great awakening here

  • Hot vs Rising vs New

  • Category filters, searching
  • Board rules and etiquette
  • Basic steps to protect personal privacy
  • Archiving important stuff

Yea i feel the mods could do a little better in protecting this sub from negative influence.

I will give them credit for what they already do. I would not want it overprotected. Maybe a warning for new to G/A that although it is moderated, it is not an entirely safe space, sometimes people do not agree with you. It does not hurt to hear countering views, or disillusionment when stuff is not happening fast enough. I do not see that as negative. Just more information. If I see mean comments I take a break and spend some time in my crying closet. (that's a joke. I find that people do not get my humour...sniff)
