Just do a text element...

i did this but it dont show up

self thread welcomeMessage();

welcomeMessage()
{
    notifyData = spawnstruct();
    notifyData.titleText = "Menu Name";
    notifyData.notifyText = "^2Status: " + verificationToColor(player.status);
    notifyData.glowColor = (0,0,0);
    notifyData.duration = 15;
    notifyData.font = "hudbig";
    notifyData.hideWhenInMenu = false;
    self thread maps\mp\gametypes_zm\_hud_message::notifyMessage(notifyData);
}

What @Candy is telling you is that you have to create a own text element for your welcome message.

For example, here is my welcome message script from the tfs project:

PrintMessageToEntry
PrintMessageToEntry(<string>, <timeplus (int)>)

Usage
self PrintMessageToEntry("Message to Print");

If you leave <timeplus (int)> empty, it won't display longer.

Example:
self PrintMessageToEntry("Created by CabCon");

Functions to copy inside of your project:

PrintMessageToEntry(String,timeplus)
{
    if(!isDefined(level.message_spwan))
    {
        level.message_spwan = spawnstruct();
        level.message_spwan = self createText(1.5, 5, String, "CENTER", "CENTER", 0, -120, 1);
        level.message_spwan.glow = true;
        level.message_spwan.glowColor = (1,1,1);
        level.message_spwan.hideWhenInMenu = true;
        level.message_spwan setCOD7DecodeFX( 100, int(10*1000), 600 );
        level.message_spwan setPulseFX( 100, int(10*1000), 1000 );
        if(isEmpty(timeplus))
            timeplus = 0;
        //L(String.size+" | Print Duration : "+(3+(String.size/10*3))+timeplus);
        wait 3+(String.size/3)+timeplus;
        level.message_spwan affectElement("alpha", 1, 0);
        wait 1;
        level.message_spwan clear(self);
        level.message_spwan = undefined;
        self notify("MessageSpawnNew");
        //L("PrintMessageToEntry() say --> notify MessageSpawnNew");
    }
    else
    {
        //L("PrintMessageToEntry() say --> waittill for MessageSpawnNew");
        self waittill("MessageSpawnNew");
        self PrintMessageToEntry(String);
    }
}

isEmpty(var)
{
    if(var == "" || !isDefined(var))
        return true;
    else
        return false;
}

createText(fontSize, sorts, text, align, relative, x, y, alpha, color)
{
    uiElement = self createfontstring("default", fontSize);
    uiElement setPoint(align, relative, x, y);
    uiElement settext(text);
    uiElement.sort = sorts;
    uiElement.hideWhenInMenu = true;
    if( isDefined(alpha) )
        uiElement.alpha = alpha;
        uiElement.color = (1,1,1);
     //Overflow fix
     //uiElement.type = "text";
      //addTextTableEntry(uiElement, getStringId(text));
      //uiElement setSafeText(self, text);
    return uiElement;
}
