Hmm, not sure if we really need this kind of posts (even if it contains only "white hat" recommendations). If you are going to write something oriented to "new" HN users, something that tries to define what a productive member should do (posts should be good "discussion material", don't ignore the new page, karma is not that important, etc...) or give some insight into the community could be more useful. Just my $.02.
