Agree. A post has to be pretty stinky (facts, tone, effort) for me to downvote it. Usually I read and ignore the goofy posts. If the user appears to be new-ish I do give them some latitude, but if they join and immediately start posting without doing a little work (like familiarizing themselves with the site and its customs), they deserve the downvotes. To me, there's a paralell with merging onto a highway. You don't just merge and start barging around the lanes. Merge, stay in your lane for a minute or two, then power up and start to move once you've got your bearings and got into the groove of being on the highway.
