FFS - 13 out of the threads on the first page of Newbie section are older than a week!!!

PLEASE stop dragging up older threads in there - its not fair on new joiners.

Once again, I am forced to drag this up as I've had to send out a load more PMs.

PLEASE do not add to Newbie threads that are older than 7 days!

Too save time space and what sounds like hassle could you not simply have an automated welcome email/ PM from the group admins.

Save space on forum and surely new members could be made welcome whilst early days of posting. :-?

To be honest if i join a new forum i very rarely even look at welcome/newbies thread....just jump in and start posting.

Not the case for everyone though.

When I joined, it took me a week to pluck up the courage to post a hello, and when the welcomes came in it made a hell of a difference.
