Pretty sure it's GameConnection::spawnPlayer(%client).

Okay so Greek2me and swollows's code do the same thing but Lugnut says that the code is wrong because you can't show a message on a players screen until they spawn. Like wordy said, is there a OnSpawn function?

You don't have a grasp of the series of events.
1. GameConnection::onConnectRequest -- Before client joins. If %client is deleted immediately after this function, their connection is rejected.
2. GameConnection::autoAdminCheck -- After client connects to the server. Called after "Name has connected."
3. GameConnection::onClientEnterGame -- After client has finished downloading and has spawned for the first time.
4. GameConnection::spawnPlayer -- Any time the player spawns or respawns, for the first time or otherwise.
If you want to send a center print the first time a client spawns, package onClientEnterGame, call the parent, and then do a center print. That should work.
When packaging, ensure that all arguments are being considered at all times.

OnClientEnterGame is called when they spawn. (for the first time)
There's nothing wrong with using it.
