Hi Olga! Welcome. I refreshed my memory on how this works, and it appears that you can have discobot send an email with tips instead of starting the narrative bot tutorial.

But you are right that it does not seem to be possible to disable discobot altogether and just send this welcome message from a staff user.

Maybe this can be done with [automation](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-automation/195773)? 🤔
