Turning Off The Posting Counter In The Introduction Forum |
). Similarly I tend nowadays to try to contribute where I think I can add something or answer a specific question. So I don't usually add a welcome unless I'm answering a new member's question (or maybe I'm just an anti-social hermit 
). Nonetheless I don't see an issue with people saying 'hi'.

I think it's not that big of an issue as it is discussed here but we all have different views on the matter which is normal so it is good for everybody to state their opinion.
I don't mind turning off the counter, I will read and try to understand every member that comes to the forum and offer him/she help if needed anyway. This is what counts in the end, not number of posts. I can post on the whole forum 25 posts per day, 1 post here and there on the welcome board really doesn't take a lot of time to me, but it means when you are welcomed into the community. Lot of people are a bit shy when they introduce or ask their first question, so it is our good manners to make them understand that they are welcomed and respected as first timers. If they continue to post on the forum later, they will give another kind of respect, this is how things go.. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

QUOTE (Skalde @ Jul 8 2009, 05:00 PM)  Look at it this way: It seems like we all can agree that a short message lile "welcome to GMC" is fine, the logical conclusion is that disabling the fast reply button makes no sense. We would have a similiar discussion if I had suggested to turn of the fast reply button, but since it was removed from the start noone questions the decision. Let's say the post count for this board would be missing for this particular board from the beginning most of you would think "I can agree with this, it makes sense" So I suggested to turn of the post count since it would go a long with a previous decision.  Jedi mind tricks doesn't work on us*feels and urge to turn off the counter* I still don't get the point
