New wikis have Discussions rather than a forum. It's possible to set up an old-style forum. You'd have to ask how in this wiki's forums though.

A bot is something that's very complicated to set up. You usually have to have some programming experience. So it's not something I can teach you. You may be able to get help in the forums, but generally people aren't prepared to make one for you, and they can't really teach you to do it yourself (unless you have the needed skills to start with)

The welcome tool is automatically on your wiki. If you aren't seeing it working, then you can contact us for help. It's best to check it first by using a test account (edit, then see if the test account is welcomed) or by getting a friend to make an edit to see if it's triggered.

And remember, any time you write in the forum or via the contact form, you need to include links! So, for example, if you are talking about the welcome tool, you would send a link to the profile of the person who should have been welcomed.
