What would be nice, ultimately, is to structure it so that when a new user joins, the only forum they're able to post a new thread in is the introduction thread. Then when they do that, they're only able to reply to the posts within that thread until a certain limit is reached.
After that, full access.

Talk about earning your way into a site... We'd get rid of 70 percent of the bullshit around here.
It was pretty cool when we only had like 30 members and anytime someone took the time to join and they posted an 'im new' thread it actually meant something and they usually stuck around for a bit. Nowadays I still see new people that have been members for years that I never knew existed.
