ConcaBuu 1 Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 I feel im missing something, whats the rationale behing PM'ing newbies? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mrs Magic 1 Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 I feel im missing something, whats the rationale behing PM'ing newbies? I guess because its like joining a new club and walking into the meeting area and members coming up to greet you. You would feel pretty damn miserable if you got the courage up to join a club and walked in and nobody spoke with you. In a virtual way of course.........but the principle is similar.

ConcaBuu 1 Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 thanx mrs magic, im a bit slow on the uptake, thanx for clarifying that for me :thumbup: its actually a very good idea :thumbsup: If thats the case, wouldnt it be a good idea to add a new group alongside, "admin" "moderators" and "vip" the group "mentor" these people will greet all new members and shows them around for the first initial few days build their confidence and encourage them to post. takes the pressure off moderators, what dya think?

Gazza 15 Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 theres a auto message mod that can be installed which can do this for these forums, would save manually messaging new members. as a member joins or makes his or her first post they receive a welcome greeting. just a thought ;) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
