It's logical, but it is an assumption.

Have you *read* the forum, and what they let us get away with saying?
If anything, the new members and giving us questions to answer and problems to solve has kept us on much better behaviour, I think.

Well, seeing as most of us are in unsupported beta mode of the OS, there's a lot of weird stuff going on that we're trying to help each other through. One could argue that rather than frustrate new users, giving them access to the forum takes a lot of work off of their shoulders. (The extent to which they care is questionable, though.)

Now you're speaking like an edge owner!
Welcome to the mix, and if you haven't done so, it can't hurt to send a support email re: joining the forum. I know a lot of us are also here, but the response you get might give us some new info.
