This makes questions like this one having three votes and there are lots of good (but not best) questions having less or slightly more.

I think "Hi, welcome to the site!" is enough to make a good feeling. The reputation is not what most of us are here for. Everyone gets 1 reputation point when he logs in.

UPDATE

I remember the first reaction to my very first post here. User kubanczyk noticed I was new, took his time to view my profile to check this, and made nice welcoming message. I appreciate this much more than if it were an upvote.

I would also like to get points not because I'm new, but because many people think I've done something good.

I propose that one of us puts a welcome message and others upvote this message. So if a new user sees "Hi, welcome" and notice that this comment was backed eg. by ten persons, he will see he's really welcome here.
