This was mentioned in my "Greetings" message, however I thought it might be worthy to post here as well.
Might it be useful to have some sort of "Welcome" or "Introduce Yourself" sub-folder within the General Folder, specifically for new users to say hello? I have no idea how much use these forums will see (Though I am optimistic), so it might help keep the General board "Tidier" in the long run.
Just a thought.
