Post Count in Introduction

Just a suggestion but I don't that your post count should increase when posting in the Introductions. It could cut down on some spam. Tell me what you think?

you already aren't supposed to be spamming in introductions section, and no "copy-paste" replys, and stuff like that
also, if someone is posting in everyone's introductions, staff will know that person and will consider it when deciding on rankings and other stuff
also, it is a good way for new members to earn their 1st post counts

You do have a point I may be wrong.

lol, if post counts were to be removed then nobody would bother welcoming any of the new members..making the introductions kinda useless

Most of the older members don't really do it much anyway. But also as ninja said, posts in there count towards post count, but only limitedly towards increasing rank. People have been turned down from UG for having too many of their posts being in the intro section.

We look over a lot of people posting in Intros. It's fine to start a thread if you're new and have some minor chit chat ( I stress minor)- but I've caught lots of people constantly posting there and their posts are often removed as spam. Example; a person joins the Site, and all they do is welcome everyone to GG even though they've never seen GG outside of Introductions. Usually Staff is on top of this, but as stated above, to have it not count at all, than new people wouldn't beable to get even the smallest amount of posts to see anything.

Bad ninja, bad.
Although I am a good example.

There's a person right now who's probably coming towards the 200 post mark and I swear half of their posts are "Welcome to GG"- and mainly in the intro area lol.
