"You are warmly welcome."
When a new member joined a group, the group owner said, "You are warmly welcome." Dose it sound awkward to youWhat would you say if you were the group owner?Grammatically, shouldn't it be "You are warmly welcomed" ? But that doesn't seem fit in the context?
When someone says thanks, you may say "You are welcome." or "You are very welcome." ( "welcome" as an Adjective )
After someone joins a group, we say,
1. Welcome to join us. ( "welcome" as a Adjective )
2. We warmly welcome you to join our group. ( "welcome" as a verb )
3. A warm welcome to you. ( "welcome" as a noun )

It's not really all that awkward. To be wamly welcomed means that your presence is really appreciated and the people that you're joining are truly glad you have come.
Warm and cold are being used here as ways to describe the reactions of the people you're joining. If you walked into a room and everyone just stared at you with faces of anger, that would be getting a cold welcome.
