Maybe only mods should be able to reply to welcome threads?

Maybe only mods should be able to reply to welcome threads?
All posted in this tread from me pertain to this poll/thread.
because this is the static jerry used. even though we all know 90% of these people are no longer active members.
It also wouldn't be shameless advertising.
Expanding on this a little bit... why not an automated response?
An automatic welcome to anyone who posts a thread in the welcome section.
Yes it would be canned, and yes it would point to things already on the forum (search & stickies) but it would be better than nothing.
If I got an automated response to my welcome I would not feel very welcome. But, to keep everything fair, a welcome post should not be answered with a sales pitch. I think a mod's reply should be sufficient and personalized to the new member. Plus, the mod can copy/paste the sticky threads into the welcome thread reply...

That is an interesting statement, coming from a member who has an ARGLPM banner in his signature
What do you consider "shameless advertising"?
When they do fill out the profile we have a chance to see then if they are indeed residing where they claim by looking at the IP.
As IE said the banner I'm posting on my own free will and I have nothing to gain from it, and maybe if you hit the link you will notice it takes you to the openLPM project and not a store front or anything like that. As you may not know but I designed this banner also just did one for Mohgasm.com and am planning on possible offering it as a service to other members.
