giving the impression that we want to hear from them.
Is “We’d love to know who you are, what you’re doing, and how you found us.” too strong do you think?

What’s your plan here?
Yeah, I’m not sure how well this works with the one-a-month structure. Ideally I’d like this thread to be stickied to the front page, but I know that requires some admin-help.
hmm, here’s a spiel on voting and karma, I’m a little worried that it sounds too forbidding—what do you think?
You may have noticed that all the posts and all the comments on this site have buttons to vote them up or down, and all the users have “karma” scores which come from the sum of all their comments and posts. Try not to take this too personally. Voting is used mainly to get the most useful comments up to the top of the page where people can see them. It may be difficult to contribute substantially to ongoing conversations when you’ve just gotten here, and you may even see some of your comments get voted down. Don’t be discouraged by this. If you’ve any questions about karma or voting, please feel free to ask here.
