The "Fast Reply" button was disabled to prevent short postings from users who have hardly read the whole introduction post. A more effeicent mesaure would be to turn of the posting counter for this particular board. Maybe it would encourage the users to take more time for the introduction post.

I understand what you're saying but IMHO the dozens of repetitive "welcome to gmc"s aren't produced by people that want to increase their amount of post. Yes I'm pretty sure some of the folks just paste their greetings without reading the intro but on a level even that is enough. If you're interested in the new member because he/she might provide a good story about his/her guitar career or life then you click there and read the intro. If you're just greeting 5 new members one after the other in only 40 seconds, then it's obvious you hadn't read the intro but at least the new members feel more welcome (if they ever check their thread again).
