Suggesting that a newbie read one million words (literally) before posting doesn't sound that helpful to me. RationalWiki used to criticize LessWrong for that.
A better suggestion would be the About page, the FAQ and the Welcome thread.
The sequences actually are worth reading. More than the majority of comments on this site, I'd say. The original commenter actually mentioned trying to read every comment. In comparison to the entire comment content of the site, the sequences are not only far more concise but better quality and a much better time investment in general.
"We don't need more clueless users making confused comments resulting in more responses that try and fail to summarize the sequences in 100 words."
