@Mel

Doubt - It can be tough to keep a note of the count though.

@trueconfidant123 Good point! I'd recommend notting down in your notes app whenever you welcome someone, it doesn't have to be detailed but just writing "today I welcomed 2 people" is enough! Once friday rolls you can post it to the log's thread!

@Mel I would love to participate in this, but I do have 2 questions. In order for it to count for us to log it, do we have to be the first person to reply welcoming someone through the forums? Or is it anyone welcoming any new person, can log it too for them? Also, when welcoming through pm, that sounds great but it just seems like that could be repetitive... especially if someone has already PM'd someone and then other person PM that same person with the same message since we don't know which has been welcomed. Almost seems spammy in a way but that's just my brain overthinking probably. Lol. Either way, this is sweet and kind to make all new members feel welcomed so I'm all on board. ♡

@YourCaringConfidant

I have the same questions Caring. It can be confusing. Members may get overwhelmed or irritated with repeated personal welcomes through chat.

@trueconfidant123 I think I'd prefer we keep reaching out through PMs to listener only for this reason! You're welcomed to reach out to members through the forums and encourage them to reach out for a chat if they'd like to!

@Mel

Makes sense. Thanks for the clarification.

@YourCaringConfidant Great questions! I agree it could be repetitive, the sample messages and very short and sweet so you're more than welcomed to adapt them to your own style and add/remove any information you'd like, as long as it does include your participation in the team (to avoid confusion) and good wishes & support to the person you're welcoming!

To clarify how much it counts towards:

1) you can write down how many people you welcomed through forums and how many you PMed, obviously PMing is harder work and takes extra effort but it's also more helpful to build connections - I'm thinking we can award extra cheers for this! Like bonuses!

2) You can log in second posts! Goal here is to welcome new people, we don't want to make it a race - or have people fighting to answer first 😂 Even if a post has been answered, you can leave a thoughtful answer too and count it towards your goals! Same counts for PMs.
