Hello @willowtigger
Yeah I already have this set up so new members get a welcome message :)
 
You won't be able to start a PM or have a signature until you reach at least 5 posts, this is to prevent spam in PM's and signatures.

It did say this in my welcome pm. But i am not able to start a PM yet.
