Could shortening the waiting period from a week to three days on askmefi be taken into consideration? [more inside]

In which I posit that the two-week waiting period has had no impact on the volume of questions.

I had a pretty interesting link for a fpp but I found out the hard way that I have to wait a week (5 days? 7 days?) before i get to to post on the big blue. Isn't is safe to assume that the new members aren't just people that wandered in to mefi and joined, but rather lurkers who've been dying to post for quite a while?

Also, I was able to post a question in askme as well as this thread, so I'm thinkin maybe we need some policy revision
