I've been a member of this forum since March 13,07 and have yet to see a Welcome Member forum  created  by either the Admin nor the Mods on this forum like I've seen on other forums I'm a member of.

Is it so hard for people who  have been members on here for some time to make Newbies like myself  to feel welcome ?

just make a post saying hi im so and so, its not a big deal   by the way welcome to the forum

Speckled Bass,

There is a little netiquette that is helpful here. When I joined this forum I introduced myself on the general board and almost instantly received dozens of welcomes and never felt so noticed in my life. Any time you join a new forum it's a good idea to make it known on the main or general topic board. Try going to the 'General" board and post a short introduction and I think you will be surprised at the response. I hope this is helpful to you.

Check out LukyinKentucky's post. You will get the idea.

Hello, Stick around a lot of excellent people here

Welcome to the site.  

WELCOME to the forums!!! If there is any place you're more welcome than here...well...actually...uhhh...after finding this place, I quit looking

Sorry I missed 'ya!

Welcome aboard!

You were NOT ignored, we just missed your initial post. As Alpster suggested, go to the "General Forum" and start a new thread "HI!" Introduce yourself and get noticed!
