Just an FYI for anyone that may see this thread and come here to complain...
I'm working on purging the useless spam hello/welcome posts from the newbie section. Looks like a lot of people were just using those to get their post count up.

I'm not sure why those posts would be deleted, it would have to have been done by a global mod or admin. |

That thread has already been ruined as some numbers are missing due to the deletion of posts.. You should probably restart from the beginning. A clean slate, if you will. |

Could a mod/admin recommend a way to welcome new users without violating the TOS? I often say welcome or hello to newbies. It is good to welcome them and I would not want to end the practice. Would a longer welcoming response do the trick?

Add some content to the post. I'm just trying to remove the clutter/spam from the newbie forum, one sentence replies with no content are no fun  |

I don't think that is a problem if you have other types of posts outweighing the "town greeter" posts. There were a lot of proto-scammer type accounts around lately where 95% of posts were just "Welcome back" in an obvious attempt to pump their numbers. |

Thank you for the responses! In the future, I will make sure I give a welcome that informs or answers a question. I have been a mod for a video game forum and feel for the mods here. Who are doing a good job, by the way.  |

Wouldn't it be more resource-efficient to just ban the practice of sig advertisers which pay based on posts/month? It's even enforceable.

Probably, but I think that would be a little harder to enforce. Also it gives me something to do while work is slow  |

Posts? What about whole threads? I was viewing a thread this afternoon which had maybe only 4-5 replies. After reading through I went to comment and the thread had been deleted? It had only been active for 20 minutes at most, and nothing in there violated the t&c's whatsoever. A youtube video link and a few comments on it. Seems to be a few oddity's and discrepancy's cropping up since the 'hack'....Just saying  |

Perhaps that is why it was deleted? |
