I support this idea. Maybe you should add this to the OP.

Additionally, I think that there could be some kind of FAQ page for the discussion forums(if there is not already one), and there could be a “Learn More” link under the message. Would you like me to make a mockup of this?

Perhaps.
Actually, I don't want to do it anymore. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Plus, most of the mockup would probably just be letters anyways.

I have about 3450 posts, 90 shared projects, 180 total created/followed topics, and 425 followers.

No problem, having mood swings is part of life.

Semi support because they may be very useful, and this policy might be a bit too strict. If an unnecessary New Scratcher guide is created, the Scratch Team will close the topic. However, there may be too many New Scratcher guides so I think there should be a policy (with a few exceptions), but I don't think Scratchers should get into trouble for creating new guides.

I've reported like 20 different “guide” topics in the New Scratchers forum in my tenure as a Scratcher. Support.

If you're seeing this signature, that means I've come out of my social anxiety hole.

Also, I edit the Scratch Wiki. Check it out sometime it's cool I guess.

No support. What if this person actually wants to say hello in some type of guide format and it is mistaken for a guide?

AFN!

Uhh…

Topics for saying hello to New Scratchers also isn't allowed ;P

I should probably mention that in the OP.

(to OP) Hey, Nammy. This is completely off-topic, but you told me to speak with you on your profile about off-topic things. Comments are turned off on your profile.

I got a lot of compliments on my last signature, and I think that's kind of strange. I wrote it when I was 12 and it wasn't very good. I acted like PS4 controllers were the epitome of human technology, for God's sake! I tried too hard to be philosophical, or maybe I tried too hard to be funny, or maybe it was something else. But that signature was bad. It wasn't good. It might be strange for some of you to hear this, seeing as this site is full of kids, but 12-year-old me was practically a baby. I think that's something you realise when you grow up. That you're always better than you were last year. I was looking through old Skype messages between me and a friend of mine from when we were 12, and as I read them, I couldn't stop thinking, “Woah. I was the worst.” It's important to know that you're always the worst. I can almost guarantee that future you is thinking negatively of you right now, just as future me is thinking negatively of me. It's important not to let that get to you. Remember to stay in the present. Tomorrow hates you, but it can't hurt you because you'll never get to tomorrow. When I was 10 or 11, I remember seeing the world very cynically. I thought that human life was inherently selfish, and that we were only put on this planet to destroy it. I'm so glad 10 or 11 year old me is gone, because 17 year old me would NOT get along with that kid.
