Guidelines for the Welcomes forum

This forum is for newcomers to introduce themselves and for everyone else to welcome them.

This is the place to post "Hi, I'm new" threads and get to know other members. Hope we will meet some new members who haven't made their first post yet

No tossing is allowed.

There are already some threads like that and moderators will move them here shortly, so just wait a few days.

To make one point clear from the very beginning:
This forum is not the Volcanic Wastelands part II.

New members should be able to tell us something about themselves, to read something about other members or to ask their first questions.

Donīt spam here!

This would surely frighten away some newcomers, and that is exactly what we want to prevent with this new forum.

Has any mention of this forum been added to the registration (or at the end like the rules page)
to direct new members here?

After registration new members are redirected to the FAQ. Where do you think is the best place to add the mention of the welcomes forum?

Why not just add mention of this forum to the message that tells newcomers their registration has been completed successfully? Something along the lines of "Registration completed successfully. Please visit the 'Newcomers' forum to introduce yourself."

Just a thought.

Or just a HUGE welcome newcomers sign at the top of the page with an arrow or link!!  

(actually shadow's idea is more along the lines of what I was thinking....  
but the only small problem I see with the main page is that with the "welcome" thread so low on the page, a newcomer may not see it right away!

(maybe a "NEWCOMERS WELCOME....  CLICK HERE" and then it brings them directly to the bottom of main page or "welcome" forum.)

a little off topic....

sorry but there's no "feed back thread" for any sort of inquiry...

Pan,
you locked the one thread but can we transfer all the posts into the appropriate "original" thread??

(personnally i like the new one because it was more relevant to hc's active members... but if we could attach or move the posts of the locked one, it would be cool!)
