Should welcome message for invited users come from the inviter?

You really do make a good point. There are other facets to what I was proposing. I was considering the emotional impact of having a friend walking with you through the next steps.

If I invite someone to a park, I’d like to show them around. Tell them how they should carry themselves, what is acceptable by the ones I already fraternize with and so on. I wouldn’t prefer to have the “security guard” go through all that with me. That would also apply for general invitations: the ones without a topic attached to them.

I’ve started a topic about some ideas to improve the invitation workflow experience here:

Maybe we could close this one and continue there?
