This is going to be started up again, so who wants to be in this group? Volunteers? EDIT: So far, sagewoman has been added to the group. Thanks! You will see extra options now in the Admin panel.

I was welcomed by lotsa awesome people when I got here. Made a massive difference. This s y first BUFFY forum, and since the content means so much to me, knowing that other people cared that I cared made me feel like I WANTED to be here and contribute. I didn't plan on posting much if it was a 'closed' community, but I haven't found that at all!
Thanks guys! *hugs all round*

Okay, thanks for volunteering!! evilrockerwillow, sagewoman and Greer are now a part of the welcoming team. Basically send newbies a PM...just being friendly and stuff. You're kind of like being a helpful older sibling, to newbies. With that said, one PM to a new user is all you'd need to do. I usually: - let them know about avatars, and tell them that people can make them some if they want - thank them for joining up - direct people to our rules thread if they have questions Very easy! You can search for new members in the newly visible 'Admin' tab found in the navbar. Just click "search members". Then search for members by register date, something like "users who registered less than 2 days ago", etc. It's very simple! You've also been awarded 500 Karma for doing such a nice thing for the forum.

All new members as of March 19th have received a welcome message from me. I've been sending them out since February 2008 - all new members since then have received a welcome email (883 of them).
Could we schedule a "chat" for this? It would be easier than PMing - we could figure it out in real time. I live in BC, Canada and am on Pacific Time (like California). Could one of you three arrange that - you know PMing us all until a time to go on chat can be worked out?
It iwll be nice to break up the work - I am so glad you have all vounteered.
