I'm going to be adding a random tips line to the top of every page; stuff like "The more you review, the more your work will be reviewed," and "Saving your post as a draft allows you to edit it later. You can find your drafts by going to My YWS."

Any other tips?

"People who cross Big Brother tend to disappear."

Or what about, "Be sure to read up on the FAQ's if you're a new member. People will like you better."

Except phrase it non-lamely. *nods*

Do not use chat-speak. Chat-speak is annoying and makes certain people's brains implode.
