View submission: Introducing the Mod Welcome Message

Redditors can disable these messages by disabling welcome messages under notifications on their settings page

For those looking, it's the last option in the first heading of "inbox notification".

Although, why control over a *private message* is in the **notifications** tab, and not the **chat & messaging** tab is beyond me.

Thanks, I'll run the placement by my product and design folks, and I'll move it if they tell me to. It's also in the legacy reddit preferences page as "receive welcome messages from moderators when I join a community".
