It basically depends on me and the mood.
If Im not in a rush and I am around for a while then I will send a different one to each member but if i am rushed off my feet and I am only on for a few mins i will copy and paste.

I do have a generic message that can be sent but I make an effort of personalizing it in some way. If there is info in the profile then i will try to include that in the pm some way. If they have already made a post, i try to use information in the post when I contact them.

I have a generic welcome, if i have time i'll just use it as a template and make it more personal, otherwise i just copy n paste.

Nothing to feel guilty about, any welcome is better than none, in my opinion.

agree with any welcome is better than none :)

I have a basic idea of what to say, but I don't C+P, I just type it out.
