While there is a Writing a welcome message that was written years ago in 2018. Why is that topic not pinned in either Meta board or Beginners & Help board?

Pinning it and welcoming 2026 will be meaningful.

First of all, you should have started this thread as a poll.

I don't mean to be rude but I don't think this is really necessary, from the topics you have picked as references you can agree with me that most newbies are just feeling intimidated by these senior ranked members because they are not open for criticism. Another reason why newbies create such thread is because they feel they are stagnant and wish to grow. For example when I was overwhelmed by the way the forum worked months ago so I created this thread which immediately makes me bust into laughter anytime I read it now.

So you can read the welcome message and still be lost in this forum. There are many pinned threads that contains all you need to find your way up around this forum.

Do not post off-topic replies
Forum ranks/positions/badges (What do those shiny coins under my name mean?)

These already pinned thread contains more than enough information for a newbie to get started but the problem is that most newbies don't even care reading the content of these pinned thread making them drawn in the ocean of confusion and inferiority complex.

It is included in [Mega resources for newbies] Check here, find most of your need, before asking, which is already pinned in the Beginners & Help board.

It's absolutely irrelevant to pin that welcome message when we already have the "Newbies - Read before posting" thread pinned in the Beginners and Help board, what other welcome message is more important than this?

A welcome message to contain all the important information about the forum including the forum rules and regulations, ranks and how it work, activities and it's counted plus other important informations just as it is in the "Newbies - read before posting" thread, this thread may not be given the "welcome message" title but it completely serves that purpose perfectly well.

Perhaps it would be best to publish a "To-Do List for This Year" to track any new developments.

Forum development isn't following any public Roadmap, so it's slow, and many good suggestions aren't being implemented.
