1. Visit Imgur's very first posts (and maybe leave your mark in the comments)
I can't link you guys to it because the page number changes as the days go by, therefore a link will become obsolete so here's how to get to them:

So we're going to number our lists like Buzzfeed now? Is that what we're going to do?
StarIord
I was actually thinking "Damn this title sounds so Buzzfeed" as I posted this

I've always thought that first time users should be given a "tour" by an animated Imguraffe, sorta like a video game tutorial
StarIord
That would be awesomeeeee

I'd rather see imgurian nudes than celebrity nudes

I remember the balls kicking thing, what ever happened? Did he get the $500 and get to roshambo the guy?
BlueBassist
Looks like OP never delivered. Imagine that.

How can you get nearly 70000 downvotes on a comment and still have over 100,000 rep @fartharder
fartharder
Through the magic of imgur!
InCaseofMetaBreakGlass
So, your most upvoted comment is wrong. http://imgur.com/blog/2014/05/22/the-updated-imgur-leaderboard/

Someone reads the blog?
StarIord
Fixed.

DrunkenDracous
Eh the new ones are more fun. The old one is just laggy from all the reply's. (work internet sucks)
StarIord
Someone should start a new selfie thread
DrunkenDracous
Your time to shine famous outlaw.
StarIord
I'm not sure I'm ready to start such a thread...but we will see
iheartcottnballs
This needs to be a direct link for the new folks that sign up for Imgur

Is there already a 'Imgur museum' post, gathering first posts of various Imgur things ? It would complete that.
sarah
I'll add it to the Imgur Help site!
StarIord
cool beans!
iheartcottnballs
Hi Sarah! Thanks for helping us newbies! Much love!

Hi! Welcome to Imgur, here's a little brochure to fill you in on some things. Note to be weary browsing usersub after midnight.
Moriarty
Also, and probably more importantly, be *wary.
andytuba
Where's that History of Imgur round up..
jval
This is how I imagine OP:
noonerspisms
your username is the one my mom uses on aol and for a second i thought you were her..
jval
Your mom sounds like a smoke show.

Bombideer
Can you include into one of these a PSA about posts from Reddit hitting the front page with 0 points? A LOT of ~new people are always asking
StarIord
Actually, I plan on making another post. This will definitely be included! With credit for the idea given, thank you!
Bombideer
Thank you! I intend to upvote it to help it make fp. Also might wanna include some nostalgia that posts used to need 200 (or 300) to hit fp.
StarIord
I'll be sure to include that! Damn awesome ideas. I'll get on it once I have some free time and message you once I have posted it!
Bombideer
This post was 11 things every Imgurian should DO, how about things that they should KNOW? Just a suggestion.
StarIord
That's exactly what the next one is going to be. I haven't had time since posting this one to work on it. It'll be up by tomorrow.
excepttheoneswhoaredead
Just one post to oblivion? Hah, I was born in oblivion. Molded by it.

Stop right there, criminal scum
fartharder
You were?
maggilymoop
Not sure whether to upvote or downvote...
GingerTheBeard
you think you know oblivion? i didnt know upvotes until i was a man, by then it was just blinding.
MrTurtleWrangler
Same here. 1250/1250 gamerscore on it.
AnalBeard
I once thought I was going to be the next @fartharder at the rate one of my comments was being downvoted. Scary stuff.
excepttheoneswhoaredead
Once I got to -32. It was just some sarcasm, people thought I was actually dumb.
AnalBeard
Mine sits at -312 because someone made a post and promised updates. I said not everything needs updates. It got ugly.
fartharder
How did you handlegetting so many downvotes?
AnalBeard
I joined a support group and ate a lot of Ben and Jerry's. How have you coped?
fartharder
So that's oblivion, eh?
excepttheoneswhoaredead
What I meant first was about posts, you one-upper
fartharder
Ha. ONE up. :D

This post just seems to be begging for downvotes
Youourawlmoreowns
Is this the first post of this post? Sorta like a greatest hits... or a repost of greatest hits?
StarIord
Or a reposted repost posting about other posts posted by original posters
