Yeah, I wouldn't be down with that idea either. I went back and editted the post you just quoted and added what I specifically had in mind for a new member area. Basically just somewhere that a new member could post their very first introductory post saying who they are and why they are here. And give everyone a chance to say hello. It would certainly be optional, and they would definitely have access to all areas immediately. If they were all in one area they would be easy to find too, so that anyone interested in seeing who's signing up could always go there and read about them and say hello.
