About a couple years ago, we had a new member join (Cloud5001). They hadn't created a welcome thread for themself, so Impractical made this thread for them. But then they turned out to be rather toxic and they insulted a bunch of people and then abruptly bailed from the forum. So then Impractical changed this into a general welcoming thread for new members.
Ohhhhhh…in that case, it turns out I actually am familiar with that whole, er, incident. I assume you’re referring to the rather belligerent user in
this welcome thread I decided to check out a while ago to investigate why it was locked. Yeah, looks like that was a fun time for everybody.

Well, at least this thread is going towards a more productive purpose now!
