That is 2 scenarios that I think will cause confusion as it might be a bit misleading to those who already have accounts.

The conditional at the begining show the message only to unregistered members, When the click on it it takes them to the register page, Once registered, You set up the forum so that new members recieve a welcome PM, That the PM that they recieve.

In essence your telling them that they have a PM forfore they actually get it.

Its Human nature to find out what there email says, so in all everyones happy.

By using the conditional to show this only to guests and non registered members, means that registered members and members of other usergroups will never see it

can you see how it works now???
