Adding 'welcome.....'

daniblue182

We've been getting quite a few new guests recently and I think we should add 'welcome playername' to the server so it alerts everyone that the person is new and it might help them get talking quicker as I've just seen  guests  come and go, it might help them stay if they feel more welcome :)

Well, I kind of act like that already when I'm online lol.
Otherwise, this is a good idea and I'd like it to be implemented.

Given with how welcoming some users are, this idea would even help more. It may boost for how long some people may stay, you never know.

I like this idea. It makes the new player feel more comfortable and loved on the server instead of joining and just listening to our conversations, getting no recognition whatsoever.

 This is a great idea, more people would play the server and it would be more fun!-hi45070

A lot of people have actually suggested this.

I support this, but I want to add you can type /list and try helping out with getting the guests to talk.

I humiliated myself thrice when I assumed some guests are new when they are already established and just haven't signed up.

great idea and this is a way for us to know for sure its someone's first time on server.  we could even make the text a different colour to stand out, sort of like how Cora has to send me a private msg so its in pink and I see it otherwise it could just get lost in the normal conversation that I may or may not be paying attention to. :)

I agree with this. Though, I remember when I was new the chat was at its peak and i said hello i am new no one said amything. A while ago two newbies came on called godlydemon (I think) and I died then met them at spawn. They messaged in thr chat frequently askin for help but no one said anything so i pm them an provided them with a plot. So it just goes to show that new people are ignored and then we lose them.
