How can I do that? Is there some kind of instant message that can be sent when someone registers?

No, but just go over to the introductions forum, and when you see a new member asking what to do, link them the FAQ. And possibly the videos too.

We don't want to send an instant message to greet people. Speak for yourself. You know my opinions on this subject.  BUT I digress. Hey Dorian, thanks  I appreciate your comment. I would love to be an admin, but that's just my hunger for power speaking. Bwahaha  As for sending help to new members, just link them to this thread!

I know that you said people should post questions in the halp pls section, but if you wanted to make a list of people they could ask, you could put me on it  I love helping the new people

I'm going to make this a permanent announcement. I don't see any other way to make sure it's easy to find.

What's so special about this? why is Dan Brown raving about this so much!!?? What is this place, and why are we here?THIS. IS. SPOTM! We're here to meet new people, communicate in a positive environment, and to improve the world. What is a triad?A triad is a group of three people who have been put in a group by Dan. These triads will do awesome projects, and well... we don't know entirely the point of triads, but there is potential, as we can see by the results of the first triad batch. Can I be in a triad?Yes!! How!?Triads are chosen in batches. There has only been 1 batch (at the time of writing) but Dan has assured us that there will be more. You will have to be around when Dan announces it, and you will have to apply. Triad members are chosen at random. I have a project idea. Can I post it? Or is it only triads who can post projects?Of course you can!! Go ahead! How active is Dan on the forums?He's a busy guy, but he interacts fairly generously with us. Remember though, this tribe isn't a place for speaking to Dan. That place is Twitter (or his live shows). What does it take to be considered part of the tribe?First you have to pass a gruelling task. Not for the squeamish. 'Do you consider yourself part of the tribe?' If you answered yes, you passed. I don't know where to start!Try here: vimeo.com/pogobatThese Dan's announcements to the Pogotribe. If you watch them in chronological order, you should get up to speed with what's happening in the Pogotribe. Once you've done that, or if you just don't wanna, how about looking around the forums? Find something you like? Don't be afraid to respond. Come up with an idea? Post about it! Etc. Also, Projects is a good way to see what's going on. What is the secret project?Dan is going to propose to his girlfriend. That's it. I KID!! It's a secret. Only a select [not-so] few people know what it is. It will be announced at Vidcon this July. It's going to change the world, apparently. Dan doesn't respond to my comments/videos/e-mails/*insertformofcommunicationhere*!Dan is a busy man. He receives thousands of comments, tons of e-mails, and hundreds of video responses... the fact that he responds to any is amazing considering how busy he is (making videos, daily vlogs, pogotoks, all of which involve a long planning and editing process.. keeping spotm running, secret project things etc.) Don't be discouraged, or angry, and keep trying. How do I have a sig/avatar/edit my profile?Head to the PROFILE tab. Look down, and find the Modify Profile button. From there you should find the option to have an avatar, a sig, and other various things. Can I start a new topic?YES! Just try and put it in the appropriate section. Don't be afraid if you get it wrong though. I have a question, where should I post it?Halp pls section. You forgot a frequently asked question! WTF?!Post it below

It answers a bunch of questions and it's a great place for people to start.

I think he means the moon in general? If so, it's because this is a community that Dan created and he wants to see it flourish.

Awesome maybe we should have bigger version of this features a lot more (like merge it with the proboards explaination etc.) or we could place it on the wiki and make a Content Table on the forum and link the different things to each corresponding page??

[/2cents] Yeah I was thinking this. It will most likely eventually grow to be that. I've told admins that they can change things without asking me, so with me + admins working on it, it will soon turn out pretty big. I mean it's grown from what it was already.
