How about having another tab (next to "Activity", "Age", "Score", "Random") in the category listing called "Positive" or "Hot"[^1], that would be the new default? When listing by that tab, it would show only positively scored posts.- Users could have a new setting, "Default category sort", where they can choose from "Activity", "Age", "Positive" and maybe the others though I don't really see why one would want to have the others by default. This also solves the newly-registered-user shock problem by leaving it to them to choose to see the more poorly rated posts.
[^1]: Though that might be confusing since we also have hot posts in the side widget
