Hi Phillip.

May i suggest a new forum in this bulletin...
There seams to be a new member almost every day registering here, so why not have a member introduction forum, where they can introduce them selves. That way, all the rest of us would know where to find them to greet them. I think this is important so the new members will feel welcom, and not excluded from the rest of us.

Hope you like the idea.

I'd second that idea. It could limit the "Who's your favorite" threads in the news folders too...

A good idea. I for one was hoping there would be a chat implemented or linked from MC/forum index page. I like the fact new members are greeted with open arms. On every singl eother forum Ive been to genre wise, its always 'attack the newbie' time. See, we got the love on here!

There have been a few threads to welcome people. ASL and Your Favorite Muppet is a pretty popular one at the moment. It's in the Friends and Family section.

Yeah, those are the threads our friends are speaking of. Their good for now, but the only problem is once that one dies down there will be new members that will post the same thing, and once their threads go down another person shall follow, and so on. The new section idea was suggested in an attempt to take away a slow mass of posts all doing the same thing.

Thanks for the comments and helpful feedback.

What I'm going to do right now is create a new discussion for new members in the "Friends and Family" folder. That's really where these type of discussions belong. I'll make the discussion be the top discussion in that folder so that it will always be the first seen under "Friends and Family". Hopefully this will help draw our new friends to the discussion and encourage new people to post and introduce themselves at the same time.
