Dear Old members,
We have gotten many new members, some of whom you may already be in touch with. To be a bit more consistent in the welcoming process, the Management Team has authorized me to reach out. To make you aware of the past 60 day enrollment, I will be listing them all for you to view. Reach out to them as you see fit.

re: Welcome to our new members, from the management Team
Doug you slay me!! We agree that it is not as personal as we'd like it to be, but this is the beginning of the effort to try to reach out and extend a 'howdie' to new folks. Of course it's not a new effort, just an attempt to be more consistent.
Having said all that I could use some help in the effort- care to join me?
Best,
Dan
re: Welcome to our new members, from the management Team
Dan, I hope my post wasn't taken the wrong way. I wasn't being sarcastic. My "wow" was sincere; that there are many new members. And I was just welcoming everyone, hoping that the folks on this list would see the post. I didn't intend my post as a comment that this effort wasn't much of a "big welcome." I'm not sure by your response whether you took it that way or not. Such are the pitfalls of textual messaging in the absence of other communicative clues. In any case, I'd be happy to help. Please PM with details.

re: Welcome to our new members, from the management Team
Dear all newest members and perhaps some of our older ones, a special 'heads up' as you become familiar with what SOR has to offer.
You already know that we have a wonderful sales auction function, and a vibrant discussion board. You already know of the members desire to help all to make this hobby of ours a living, friendly place where fellowship reigns. We have a great library to help the scholar, and exhibits to delight the eye. Carefully look at the home page for more goodies and rules and regulations to help the site function properly.
When you do so be aware that in the past we have had some problems with new members jumping into the sales areas and discussion without reading the rules. (Then, when they get called out for not following the rules, some go bonkers and throw hissy fits.) I can't emphasize enough how important it is to learn how to use the various interactive areas of the site by reading the rules.
Know that Doug and I will be available to try to help you in any way that we can. Feel free to call on us. Welcome aboard all.
re: Welcome to our new members, from the management Team
Dan's comments are quite useful.
it's helpful for any new member to look at the rules for the various areas they want to visit, especially the discussion board, approvals, and auctions, where rules have been developed to protect us all and to ensure that we're all on the same philatelic page.
Love having new peeps here
David

re: Welcome to our new members, from the management Team
An interesting idea BenFranklin. Right now we are in the process of trying to be as consistently welcoming and as informative to new members as we can. Doug and I are the 'welcoming' committee so far.Would you like to join us and implement your thoughts?
Best,
Dan C.

re: Welcome to our new members, from the management Team
OY!! Dave, I remembered your email on Angore, and miss-remembered who was the moderator. My bad- I'm so sorry for any confusion I caused.
With apologies,
Dan C.
re: Welcome to our new members, from the management Team
I know-my bad. However, there are many opportunities to be of significant help in a variety of activities for those who might be interested in helping. I'd be happy to chat with any of our members about it- just email or pm (personal message) me.
Best,
Dan C.
