Should faction invites be posted in the Welcome section?

[Backo]

Disco's just been desperate, I guess. A lot less people playing, a lot less people to fill Official Factions' ranks. So the first thing to do would be to swarm like vultures the unsuspecting prey in the Welcome thread with a plethora of reasons why their faction is better and why he should be joining it.

I doubt if he made it this far (to actually bother to make a forum account and say hello, I know I didn't back in .84) he'll have any trouble clicking on the Factions forum to check things out.

Also as SnakThree has pointed out - shoveling your faction down their throat instantly at the greeting seems like an advertisement more than a welcome. Especially if 6 posts in a row are all about that.

Wouldn't say it's bad to the point it should be moderated, but I'd say it's bad etiquette, unless the person specifically asked to be bombarded with biased advertisements.
