When I first edited, Drew1200 warmly welcomed me on the "talk page" of my old IP Address, stating he would be delighted if I created an account.

About two and a half years later, I visited this Wiki with the account I created for LMO Wiki. I enter the chat, a half dozen people type "o/". No one says anything to me for a while, but later on, Keplers says "...Wait, since when did Starrocks have an account?"

I've seen users welcomed warmly and I've seen users suspected of dupes from the moment they enter chat. I'm rarely able to distinguish the difference myself.
