If a first time asker has an SO account that was recently (say, within a week) question blocked question blocked over there, how about showing them a warning like this:
Wait! You've recently been blocked at Stack Overflow. Consider that quality requirements at Software Engineering are similar. Note that Stack Overflow topics are not covered here and that your questions can't even be migrated to Stack Overflow can't even be migrated to Stack Overflow because of the block.
This hopefully would help them avoid further frustration if they get down and close votes, angry comments, blocked migrations and question block over here.
