Opticraft Community

       Ok, many people on Opticraft love to help out new people. Some give them stuff, some redirect them to a forest for wood, and other things. I was thinking it would be way easier to help new players if there was a join message when they joined for the first time in global, ex:

        Welcome (Username) to Opticraft!
             It is your first time joining!
                  Have a nice stay!

      Anything simular to that would be fine. I think it could help identify new players and we could help them more and encourage them to stay. So, what do you think?

This is a good idea it will help us all get to know who the new players are.

So it'll look like this, with "Opticraft SMP Server" on the end?



Or something like this?

Hmm maybe

This was suggested and denied because of the spam...

I presume there arent much new players joining...

well you presume wrong.

Well there will be more in the holidays

      I do not think it would generate THAT much spam. It could help us get to know new players and identify them.

And it's only once per player, i mean it's not like every minute a new player joins or anything

Do you have any idea how much "Welcome!" spam this would generate?

It's not spam when you're making someone feel welcome. =)

I realy think thats a good idea! When i used to play on a server called mdu, the welcome from the welcome message and other players who had read the welcome message stayed on and not just logged off. Thats what a setver needs dosn't it? Making the player feel welcome and them staying on
