Although I love both the JoS main site and the forums there are somethings I think could be improved upon for newcomers, this is just some ideas I think if implemented would help onboard newcomers onto the path more smoothly.
1. HPHC's 40 days starting program should be far more prominently featured on the main site, it should be front and center on the meditation page and perhaps even on the dedication page and maybe even on the homepage itself as one of those square menu things, as it stands rather ironically only experienced members know where to find it in order to suggest it to newcomers as finding it is rather counter-intuitive.
2. It should also be featured on the Ancient Forums as many people seem to find their way here before finding their way to the JoS
3. There should be a more prominent link to the JoS on the Ancient Forums as it stands you need to scroll to the bottom of the page, perhaps the Joy of Satanas symbol at the top of the forums should link to the main site instead of linking back to the front page or perhaps there should be a button for either the JoS or linking back to the front page next to the "Chat" button in the top right.
Ultimately these are all fairly trivial things, but I do think it would add up in making everything feel a bit smoother for newcomers to familiarize themselves with all the relevant information they need, I have seen a few newcomers who seem unaware that we even have a main site, people constantly get linked to the 40 day program which clearly shows that there is a discoverability problem in that regard so making it prominent on both forums and mainsite should fix that.
