Welcome type section

Thank you for the comments, and I'm glad to have you here.

We do indeed have a Newbie Introductions section. It is a sub-forum of the miscellaneous forum: http://www.adminaddict.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=5

I'll be looking for your thread.

 

Maybe have this as a main forum not a subforum, I was looking for it just there and I couldnt find it until I found this thread

 

I think we'll do that then. Thanks for the input.

 

Not a problem at all and thanks!

 

Maybe we could even make a notice (vBulletin feature) for newly registered users to see, telling them that they should introduce themselves a link to that forum.

 

I agree with that, we use that on both of our forums when new users register and it works too, we have seen a big increase in introductions since adding it.

 

Sounds good; I'll get that set up. There are a two I can implement:

• Never posted; please introduce yourself
• Haven't posted in a long time; make a few posts (based on time since last post was made)

 

One for new members that have just joined and have yet to post and one for members that have been inactive. If they join without ever posting and qualify for the inactive one (assuming they come back), they will probably see them both.

 

Theyre both good, maybe add if youre having any problems please contact us with a link to sendmessage.php? on the second one of course lol

 

No, I can set exclusions so that they only see the appropriate one.

 

Even better.
