[Tralala]

A side question, I see in the code the welcome_thread template that says:

EA is a very diverse place. There is a lot to do here - the trick is just knowing where to look... <etc etc etc>

I realize that this doesn't apply in my case (as new members are being announced in single posts, all in one thread,) but this default text seems inappropriate as new threads for every single member in any case. (And I'm thinking I can safely ignore it anyway.)

But I'm just curious about those that use this hack in it's original form though:

Is that for a PM to the new user? Or do forums ("EA" in this case) actually start new threads for every new member with the same "introductory/tour" text? Seems a bit... much.

Just curious, as I am new to forum moderation and I like to hear how other mods do things.
