Click the button to welcome new members to Gastric Sleeve
This message is twofold. First, a warm welcome to all the new members!
Second, this message is to introduce to our members a brand new feature I just whipped up here in the GastricSleeve.com computer lab
Now all the existing threads and future threads that are posted in the Member Introductions forum have a button that looks like this:
http://www.gastricsleeve.com/forum/i...t_welcomes.gif
And you guessed it, you can click that button to quickly say "Welcome to GastricSleeve.com" to the new member who has posted their introductory thread.
This will make it very quick and easy to welcome new members. It's useful if you don't have much to say aside from "welcome", or don't really have much time to post a lengthy reply, you can do it in one click.
It is similar to the "Thanks" system many of you are familiar with. However, the "Welcome" button only appears in the Member Introductions forum and only appears for the first post in the thread. When you click it, your name appears in a list immediately below the first post as one of the members who said "Welcome" to the new member!
As goes with anything on the website, if you have any questions or comments I am very glad to hear them. And if you experience something strange with it's use, please tell me about it so I may investigate. I don't anticipate any problems with it (for now) but as we upgrade versions and the years go by, it may conflict with other things and perhaps stop working... so please tell me about it if you notice anything strange at any time.
I hope you enjoy this feature! Use it well! And - welcome new members!

They are automatically added to your threads. The welcome button goes on posts in the "Member Introductions, Social Announcements & Good Wishes" forum. The Thanks and Like buttons automatically appear with all posts.
