Automatic PM system for new forumers.
there should be an automatic pm system for new forumers telling them where to post their ideas and other stuff. we need something to help keep the new forumers from accidental spamming.
heres and example!
1. new people get a pm from a site bot [attachment=1:2ymag2iv]Screen shot 2012-10-31 at 12.20.07 PM.png[/attachment:2ymag2iv]
2. the pm can explain some of the things you can do to avoid spam from them.

Re: Automatic PM system for new forumers.
Good idea. I support it. Btw, there must say: "Sorry, but we aren't Nicepeter or EpicLloyd"

Re: Automatic PM system for new forumers.
I think I can make that happen, make the 'welcome to the forums' message give people a quick heads up on how to use the site.
And both Nice Peter and Epic Lloyd have visited the site, and they both greatly appreciate all the fans here that make the community awesome.
Obviously, they're very busy people, and may not have time to comment on EVERYTHING. But NicePeter has posted on the site, and given us some inside information. And Epic Lloyd has sent us free cds and posters to give away to some of the awesome people here. These aren't things I asked for from them, they're things they decided to do on their own.
They also added us to the official 'epicrapbattlesofhistory.com' site as the official forum. So I'm sure they at least check in here every once in a while, even if they don't log in or post around.
NP and EL are defiantly parts of the community, heck, they're at the top of the community. But that doesn't mean that they have time for one-on-one talks with everyone :rolleyes:
I think we all know that NP and EL devote a lot of time to their fans, and checking allllllll their comments. But they can't reply to them all! and they can't check them all instantly.
So will someone famous see your ideas? Theres a pretty good chance that they'll go through the ideas topic sometime. But that doesn't mean they're going to reply to every comment that says 'NICE PETER REPLY IF YOU READ THIS".
Theres no need to be harsh and say 'we aren't nice peter / epic lloyd'. Really, if they want to try to get their attention, then thats fine. Its just like posting on youtube or twitter or facebook. Your comment may be seen/read, but not every comment can be replied to.

Re: Automatic PM system for new forumers.
Well, I think if we did do this the bot should have to be called Welcome Mat.

Welcome Willy
and he should have a avatar like this http://a3.ec-images.myspacecdn.com/i...ca48e9ae/l.jpg

Re: Automatic PM system for new forumers.
Ok. Np and El usually check the forum. But a whole topic about a suggestion is just spam, and we have to let them know the rules and show them where they have to post their ideas.

Let's name him Bob the Robot and make his avatar a Scraggy saying "Herp Derp"

Oh, are you gonna change the colors of the site? that would be awesome. The wiki has done that a few weeks ago, and I've been thinking that this page deserves a little color change too.

Re: Automatic PM system for new forumers.
That wasn't spam it was my suggestion. :wat:

Re: Automatic PM system for new forumers.
We don't need name suggestions :rolleyes:
The message comes from the forum's automated system.
However, we could use some help coming up with MLP site names here
