I happened to be on the server for the new player welcome prompt to show up. I did the thing, and got the regals from it.

Thing is, I got 10r for the greeting. I don't know if that was just a backup from other prompts I missed, but if I get 10r per new visitor, I see an issue. Namely that a greeting has almost the same money power as voting, or a minute darkrooming.

I see where the reward comes from, being a friendly welcome. But I feel that getting a free day of vote regals every time a player joins is not the best route. It will cause lots of regals to needlessly flood the market, and imo cause spam in chat.

Greeting new players shouldn't give financial benefits; you should do it our of your own willingness.

If money is still something that should be kept, I suggest lowering it to 1r per greeting.

I suggest a counter of 5r. Maintains a significant incentive to welcome new players, while drastically lessening the economic impact of such a reward.
 
Tagging as implemented since this a change of similar purpose has already been implemented

You now only get 5r per Welcome message.
