Don't increase post count in Welcome forum

[Chippiewill]

It has got to be one of the silliest things ever, here's some reasons why Post counts should not increase in the Welcome Forum:

The user can spam their way out of post moderating
Why on earth should people have their post count increase for writing "Welcome to HabboxForum <insert username here>, I hope you enjoy this community" in every thread in there. I can understand welcoming people but not for post count...

Thread closed by invincible (Forum Super Moderator): as it's turning into a very circular argument, all the necessary points have been made and it's now in managements hands.

True dat.

Good suggestion.

They arent anymore? Well so I thought...

DOUBLE TRUE!

Encourages older members to post? Even if it is such a boring and repetitive reponse, it is a response and when people keep harping on about being friendly with new members, it's encouraging to know that they are at least getting some attention from older members (even if they are doing it for their own motives - higher post count).

I thought it would've been disabled anyway, but yeah it is pretty pointless. If posts count in there they should count in spam

Innit blad, people d o use that forum for getting their post count up, I'm guilty of it and Im sure many members may admit to it in the past.

If people can't get their post count up in that forum, it would mean they would have to post in other sections across the forum. So maybe it should be turned off, I will put it to the update thread and see what other Management think of it.

Why, at a time when the forum is in decline and Habbox itself is in decline, are we trying to introduce measures that will cause a reduction in posts?

Talk about trying to shoot yourself in the foot.

It would mean users post elsewhere than the welcome forum to get their posts...

Good thing if you ask me :rolleyes:

Well if all they are going to do is post in the welcome,e forum, then that's pretty pointless to me? Surely it should encourage them to post else where on the forum.
