Welcome text without plugin

Hello,

Is it possible to make an automatic text message to a player who joins without the use of the welcometext plugin?
I thought that in rf1 there was a welcometext entry somewhere in the multiplayer.ini. I can't find it in any rf2 .json.
 
rF1 had/has a MOTD, which definitely showed up in the matchmaker, not sure it ever did in the server itself though.

Pretty sure there's nothing built in. Any reason a plugin isn't good for you?
 
No I don't mean it like that... I appreciate that someone put his own free time in making the life of others easier.
If there was a way I could get it working I wouldn't even ask this question.
But the problem is that I host from a server that doesn't give me access to the "host button".
I have to configure everyting by uploading the files and configuring the player.JASON and multiplayer.JSON

Or am I wrong and should it work this way, and have I put the files at the wrong place?
I have the .DLL in the plugins folder, and my .txt and .ini in my player folder.
Thanks both for the feedback.
