Hoi,

I don't think a greeting like that (Do you want ansi?) is at all a greeting (as you said, it probably is confusing to most).
I prefer to have them create their character, enter the game, and then, whereever they turn out to be, place a sign with the initial hints (or have a book or whatever) which also mentions how to change color levels i.e. how to turn ansi on/off.
This doesn't ride over the newbie like a truck, and you're not pushing him into something either. Quite (user-:) friendly imho.

Regards,
