when new players just start on the game, i think its best to give them a complete intro guide as soon as they register an account

Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.

Pending add an intro for all new players

I will feel pain as I get an introduction to Showdown every time I make a new alt for a certain suspect.
The
/intro command actually already exists for this, and it would be cool if that was somehow shown to new users automatically after winning their first ladder battle or something. Not really sure how you avoid the command spam if you're an experienced user who just makes alts in general, though? This would also hopefully encourage keeping the intro command up-to-date, which could be neat.
maybe have a command like /bypassintro and all the players who are experienced can just use that at the beginning to bypass the intro?
not sure how hard it is to program but it might work?
