It seems to be that there's lots of new ones joining recently and there's two welcome threads under chat.
I was thinking Is It possible to have another forum where we can welcome all the new ones and keep all the welcomes In the one place. I thought It would be a good way of finding out who's who and saying hello and introducing our selves e.t.c
Just a thought! If It's not possible then we will just have to have them In chat where they are now. It seems a pitty as no doubt by the time they return their welcome thread Is long gone and don't even get to see all the welcomes posted for them.

You know what, I was thinking about that myself. If we can't have a welcoming board then at least we could maybe have a sticky Introductions thread in chat. It would keep the boards neater, so we don't have loads of intro and welcome threads all over the place - not that that's all bad, mind!  |

We are trying to keep the number of forums down to make the board easier to manage. We thought the chat forum was a good place for people to say hello as those kinds of threads don't tend to last long anyway. Personally I don't bother with welcome forums much so having them in chat makes me more likely to respond!
If everyone wants another forum for just that then of course we'll review it, but a sticky introduction thread is a good idea - shall we see how that works?

I don't think we really need a specific welcome place. Allot of people don't bother to make an introduction.. if they want to though they have the Chatterbox as thats what thats for.

Aww Merry lol I remember mentioning about it in the early days, but I can see Treen's point about keeping the forums down.
Are you thinking of one long welcome sticky thread then Treen, sorry I've not had my morning milk coffee yet lol
If something isn't working out, we can always review it again.
