    It's because it affects what rank you are, which in turn, affects which features you have.

    It isn't spam, spam is a useless post, something which has no relation to the topic. A welcome to a welcome thread is a real post, its not a spam post.

    If people really are posting in welcome threads to welcome people then good on them and they'll keep doing it, but otherwise (just like with forum games) it'll prove that people are going there just to get post count up.
    We have already had a collapse of forum activity, lets not make it worse. It will put people off, some people like me, now prefer to do bigger posts in forums such as debates and world affairs - my choice. Others (like I used to) will prefer smaller posts in UK news and rumours, some prefer discussions and some prefer welcome and feedback forums.

    People are trying to get their post count up yes I agree with you, and really to be honest - who cares if they get more post counts than the rest of us?. If they put the effort in which benefits them, the forum and the newcomers then all is good.

    Spam is the abuse of electronic messaging systems (including most broadcast media, digital delivery systems) to send unsolicited bulk messages
    Bulk messages of 'WELCOME TO HxF, PLEASE REPLY SO I CAN REPLY AGAIN BACK TO YOU LIKE I'M DISCUSSING BUT NOT'

    it's also a canned meat made largely from pork

    some prefer welcome .. forums
    Name one person who actually posts in there for the sheer enjoyment of it on a daily basis.

    I don't see that, most of them threads have about 6/7 posts adverage in, which all posts come from different users.

    That is a topic, its like if somebody posts a topic on a new rare which is popular, and everyone replies with 'oh thats nice' - is that also to be banned?

    You clearly do not understand what I mean, PEOPLE ARE EFFECTIVLY C+PING THEIR REPLIES ACROSS THE WELCOME THREADS. THAT IS SPAM

    (Yes, typing in Caps-lock makes me feel big)

    How useful and welcoming are these examples?




    People shouldn't be rewarded for the "effort" of finding loopholes that allow them lots of short posts in multiple threads in next to no time

    What would you like them to do then? - these are new members to the forum, most of who people have never seen, heard of or spoken to before and all they are doing is posting a hello/hi/welcome/welcome to the forum message in the Welcome Forum.

    Hey Bob. Welcome to HabboxForum My name is Saurav. How are you? Where are you from? If you need any help, feel free to drop me a PM.

    People who post in Welcome forum just for post count will start posting in REAL discussions to increase their post count, thus increasing the activity.
