  36 &gt;&gt;<i> hello there,
  37 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> another nice feature that could be implemented is some sort of a
  38 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> welcome
  39 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> message for unregistered nicks.
  40 </I>&gt;<i> [...]
  41 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> i noticed that most people seem to skip the logon news, so this would
  42 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> be
  43 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> useful :)
  44 </I>&gt;<i>
  45 </I>&gt;<i>      If they skip the logon news, why would they read a message like
  46 </I>&gt;<i> this?
  47 </I>
  48 Because this would be more direct... when people find a bunch of text
  49 (me included), they tend to postpone the reading, as if &quot;let me first do
  50 what i need, then i'll read&quot;. But what if the message looked like:
  51   &quot;Hello Jollino! Your nick isn't registered, if you wish to do so,
  52 please type /ns register pass email&quot;
  53 with the nick itself included? Wouldn't you read it more happily? :)
