Posts in introductions removed from overall postcount.

I often welcome people to the forum, and if they seem interesting to me, I take good time and effort to give them a good and legitimate welcoming. I disagree heavily with this, and if you think that welcoming people into the forum is "spamming" then you're wrong.

Ok lets take a walk down the introductions forum.


A what a nice day to welcome some guys and read about what there interests are.


Ohh liami from hf :D
lets say hello :D


Look at this really hq welcome :D
How nice of somebody to have spent some time on making such a detailed welcome :D

Ohh wait it's just copy pasta that gets posted on every introduction thread made.



That is just this afternoon. And one guy. Problem is there is about 5+ guys doing this.
You could argue that it's nice to inform people about the help docs etc but do you really think this is why they spam the same reply to everyone? And if somebody was planning on reading the help docs they would have already done so.

I think the quality of the introduction section could go up a lot if we avoided these spammers and had people actually tailor there replies according to what they guy actually introducing himself said.
