If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.
To all admin:
DaNASCAT and I have at last found the bug in the welcoming message system which has prevented it from working as advertised at help:Welcome tool and user:Wikia.
For the time being, however, we are deliberately leaving the welcoming feature operating in an erroneous way, so that the development team can clearly see the bug. It will be put back in proper order in a week or so.
In the meantime, this will mean that new users, be they IP or registered, will be greeted by the bog-standard default staff greeting. Though undesirable, this is necessary in order to squash this bug for all users of the Wikia platform.
Please do not change any pages that have the word welcome in them. This means pages like MediaWiki:Welcome-message-anon, MediaWiki:Welcome-message-user or the like. Also, please do not create any red-linked pages in the MediaWiki namespace containing the word welcome.
