Small suggestion, big help

This is basically a simple solution to try and stop so many threads by new members asking why they can't get into the RPG
Just leave a little message in the automated welcome PM that everyone gets sent when they register telling them that they need 51 posts before they can use it, and then to wait a little while after that for the changes to take effect. It should save a lot of trouble for whoever it is that has to constantly answer to and close these threads at least
So? Thoughts?

I think this is a good idea as well. We do have many members ask that.

haha I know I was guilty of this at first when I first joined. I think I PMed people though instead of making a whole topic, but none-the-less, I had no idea.

I sixth this motion. But I do have to wonder, how many people actually read the introductory PM?

Maybe the RPG should have the message. Instead of saying user group, it should say required amount of posts. Just another idea.

GENIUS

Now how in gods name do we get the RPG to post that? I think DB would have to ask Decado to change that. Heck, I could try sometime, actually...

I actually suggested something similar to this to DB a while back. It was to change the error message that you get when you try to go to the rpg when you are under the post count to say that you need 51 posts instead of jsut saying your usergroup is denied.

I hope this get put in, it will MAJORLY help with people asking the same question over and over and over and over ( and over and over)
