There's really no downside to keeping members on our rolls. Few people randomly search our member list.

I would randomly scroll the member list for new members to welcome on the member list (marked "newbie"), as only the last 10 of 60 or 80 new members that joined in the last 24 hours are listed on the top of the forum page. Maybe there is a way to access all the daily new member names that I'm unaware of?

I was not welcomed personally when I joined, and knew practically nothing. So...I thought that would be a way to identify the brand new members just to say hello and welcome. A word or two from someone would have hastened my chances of becoming more active sooner. I eventually got to know other members only in the chat rooms, most of whom would graciously answer my silly newbie questions, but wish I could have had a "jump start".

Anyway, that is what led to my question. I appreciate your reply, and anyone please let me know if there is a way to see more than just the last 10 of the members that joined on that day. There may be a way and I just don't know it.

Thanks for this!
