If you notice a newbie, and pm them to welcome them, post here so everyone doesn't overload their pm box and scare them to death,

A couple pm's are good but too many can be way too scary

how do you find new people? do you just wait until their first post when they say "i'm new here..." etc? if so i have to start using every part of the site (before & after, coping, etc) because i'm usually only on main...?
