**Rasa Core version**: 0.8.5 **Python version**: 3.6 **Operating system** …(windows, osx, ...): Ubuntu 16 **Issue**: Users often request the bot to utter something on startup, instead of being presented with an empty input. rasa-core actually provides a welcome message but it is hard-coded in console.py: "Bot loaded. Type a message and press enter: " Would it be possible to make this message configurable? The solution I've found is overwriting the method, but that is a lot of code to change just one element in the method: ```python ... from rasa_core.channels.console import * class MyConsoleInputChannel(ConsoleInputChannel): def _record_messages(self, on_message, max_message_limit=None): utils.print_color("Hallo, ich bin ein ChatBot.",utils.bcolors.OKBLUE) num_messages = 0 while max_message_limit is None or num_messages < max_message_limit: text = input().strip() if six.PY2: # in python 2 input doesn't return unicode values text = text.decode("utf-8") if text == INTENT_MESSAGE_PREFIX + 'stop': return on_message(UserMessage(text, ConsoleOutputChannel(), self.sender_id)) num_messages += 1 ... ```

will look into the workaround Thanks
