I just joined this site and I am a little confused. There doesn't seem to be anywhere in the forums for new members to introduce themselves to the rest of the community. I think that a dedicated sub-forum or even just a sticky thread would help newbies like me get themselves out there a lot. I am only on the free tier, so I may just be denied access to it, but if we don't have one period, that just seems counter-intuitive to growing the community to me.

It's something we discussed and decided not to go with. D&D Beyond has 1.6 million registered accounts, so I'm not so sure a welcome thread would work with this number of users.
Maybe a newcomer subforum in DDB general could be made? You can pin a thread with links to various rules and guides across the forums, and each new member (if they want) can start a thread to introduce themselves. It might also cut down on the "I don't know if this is where I post this, but..." threads that appear on other subforums.

D&D Beyond FoundersHi there and welcome to D&D Beyond!
It's something we discussed and decided not to go with. D&D Beyond has 1.6 million registered accounts, so I'm not so sure a welcome thread would work with this number of users.
You're welcome to start one though if you like!

If you need help with homebrew, please post on the homebrew forums, where multiple staff and moderators can read your post and help you!
"We got this, no problem! I'll take the twenty on the left - you guys handle the one on the right!"🔊
1.6 million accounts? No wonder you didn't decide to go with it! Thank you for the information.
