bot only announces users as they leave, not as they join

[imtammer]

the bot definitely announces each user as they leave, but no announcement when they join. is there a way to enable a greeting and possibly their account name as well in that greeting?

Changing your welcome.py to reflect the above will give you a welcome message.
Not sure if its completely accurate, but it works XD

welcome.zip
Here is the file if its easier. just extract amd then drop it into your modules and replace the original welcome.py

@SmokeyLlama props for posting some code, however it'd be most helpful to include the version of the file that snippet of code is from, that way rather than have bugs from one random section being slightly off, someone can easily correct their off-by-one (for example people that only needed to change +bandword to +banword).

I'm hesitant to help anyone from this repo as it is essentially dead, the only fork of this that has any degree of changed code is pretty goofy, and to be blunt outright shouldn't be used. @odsum can we please get some direct answers/action? I would prefer to let deprecated/abandoned things die before I unnecessarily further the fragmentation of the bot community. See: #34 (comment)
