Almost every day we seem to get new members turning up with questions about their jackets which they want answering. Inevitably they pile in without introducing themselves, in some cases getting positively shirty when folk don’t want to help them without them posting a bio. Could we not do with a ‘sticky’ pointing new members in the right direction? ‘New members please read before posting ‘ or similar? If nothing else it might save somebody having to post a ‘Why not introduce yourself?’ type post every time, and perhaps we might have less ‘and you are?’ posts, which to my mind are downright unfriendly. There have been a few comments about a less than welcoming reception for new members of late, perhaps a sticky to inform people how we do things might go some way to resolving this. Other forums I’m a member of do this quite successfully. Apologies if this has been discussed before, but I thought it merited another look.
