But it should stop flashing, in that case. However, I'd try to avoid overwheming with tips, and once it's closed to have it as much disappeared as possible. This may even make it more exciting to discover new things day after day 
That's why I, personally, would only show a tip every X startups or every X days. A user can get pretty tired of the popping balloons each time he starts messenger or each hour or something like that. IMHO, if there is an extensive period between two tips automatically showing, the chances are much bigger that the user doesn't turn it off strait away (and thus the feature missing its purpose)

yup

But it would take a lot of tips (local/online) to make this feature keeping its appeal I think. In a database of 50 tips you will soon have seen them all.
much work.... but it would be a great thing
