Welcome!

If you're looking to post a new link to the front page, you won't be able to quite yet. New users aren't able to make posts until they've contributed comments that the rest of the community has found worthy of sharing.

We call this process "filling your wheel". The circle in the top bar next to your username will slowly fill up with dots when your comments are shared. Once you've filled your first wheel, you will find a +post link in the top right of the page.

Hopefully this process won't turn you away from the site. It is an outgrowth of the high levels of spam we used to endure.
