Disable welcome message for certain comments #123

I'd like for a way to be able to disable the welcome message for certain replies. For example:

This question is spam. Flag it as spam by _clicking the "flag" link_ instead of voting to close!

This looks awful when prepended with "Welcome to Stackoverflow! ". I propose we have a way to mark auto comments that will bypass the welcome message completely.

The auto welcome message saves a little bit of typing when setting the default answers, but looks quite bad on some StackExchange sites, e.g., TeX SE. One possibility would be to allow the user to customize the welcome message, but I think a better option is to just remove it entirely and then users can insert a welcome message explicitly in the auto comments that need it.

Edit: Never mind! Welcome messages can already be edited or disabled entirely.

@stevecheckoway, took a while for me to come here to reply, but it looks like you worked it out yourself in the meantime :)
