This is the kind of helpful feedback I was banking on. Thanks much.

Originally there was no recommendation system planned, but once I realized how easy it would be I had some infatuation-based feature creep. Going back to the drawing board with 'don't tell them, show them' as priority 1.

Perhaps add a "lobby" room on the dashboard page with no particular topic? That'd show 'em.

Also, showing more tips hides the input box. It prevents people from being sure they're implementing tips right, and adds more complexity to saying things for new users.
