[edit] Answer
No problem! I love welcoming new users - i never got welcomed myself, and i had to figure everything out myself, and it took a long time to familiarise myself with the protocol - i'm still unsure of how to do some things. I send out as many as i can - i usually scan the Recentchanges bar, looking for people who have no talk page yet, and welcome them. My personal rule is never to welcome someone until they've made a user page, but other users welcome as many as they can. It's just a template, so it's cut and paste. If you have any questions, you know where i am (in cyberspace, of course). Peace, love, life... СПУТНИКССС Р 01:48, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
