How to mention someone in a skript?

[BrageB19]

I'm new to skript and was wondering how i can say something along the lines of "Welcome (Player name) to the server" The thing thats mostly puzzling me is the player name part, how do you mention someones name in a skript?

In a event like on join: you can use %player% to get the player. example:

 

on first join:
  broadcast "&d%player% is joining for the first time!"

Your code would show both, broadcasting for join messages is just dumb, try something like this.

on join:
    add 1 to {joins}
    set {joins::%Player%} to {joins}
    if player has not played before:
        set join message to "&2%Player% has joined for the first time &7[%{joins::%player%}%]"
    else:
        set join message to "&2%Player% has joined"

on quit:
    set leave message to "&2%player% has left"
