I've only been on this site for a few months. Terll me, I've been posin a welcome to all the newcommers to welcome them. Does anyone do this. If, I hadn't been welcomed at my first meetin, I'd have never came back. Just a question, does everyone else welcome the newcommer??

I try to Chris. Some days when I see a newest member listed , i send them a PM welcome. If a newcomer posts on the AA or the NA bvoard, I respectfully leave that to folks on the other side of the hallway. I read, but Dont usually post over there.
Thanks for the reminder about newcomers. I remember my first f2f. And the welcome I got after the meeting was why I wanted to keep coming back.

Hi Chris, I always try to make a point to welcome to a newcomer when they first come to the board or if I am at a meeting and I find out that they are a newcomer I would extend my welcome to them. As for across the board, I do that sometimes, but not often as they usually post in the coffee shop first. BTW, I don't even recall welcoming you when you first came, so here is my welcome for you and glad that you have been posting your ES&H.

Well for me The minute I see a newcomer I try to send them a PM or post my greetings to them to welcome them to "our" little family. Offer up a few suggetions about the site and so on. I know when I came I was graciously welcomed and I am still here. It is home for me.
Love Arlene

My Very Dear Chris----Sometimes I get real busy and can't do all the posting I would like to do. I think of what I want to say in my head and then don't get a chance to post it. It does get cluttered up in my mind and I have been told that it is a bad neighborhood to go into alone!!! LOL So glad you are at this site and sharing your honest views and feelings about stuff. It hits a nerve with me and gets me reminded. I learn hard and forget easy!!!! thanks for being here..... Mistyeve
