As a recent newbie I don't think this warning needs to be posted everytime.
What would be useful is forcing new accounts through a series of pages/tutorials related to the site.
E.g. Chatterbox FAQ's ++ rather than them just being available.
This would have helped me. Perhaps the exalted ones (Saints) could flag certain items as 'essential' prior to use of the site,
although it may be more relevant for newer monks such as myself to point the way as we have more recent experience of the process.
Just a few thoughts....
All0uette.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
