You know who you are.

Do you mean so that the Active Topics page typically has 13 to 15 Welcomes and Intros as consecutive "active topics", day after day after day after day after day????

I have noticed that a lot lately myself.

Drives me up the wall. Noobs trying to drive up post counts. It wouldn't be bad if it was original but a certain person has said "Welcome to the site." over 300 times.
 
I don't know who it is. (Oh and if it's me, send me a private message and I'll be glad to respond.)
 
Yeah....nothing except a simple cut-and-paste "Welcome to the site." When I do one, I usually try and work in an offbeat TPF joke, like the one about the all-you-can-eat burrito bar in the TPF cafeteria on Tuesdays, or whatever...but yeah...the 10,13,or 15 consecutive cut-and-paste regurgitations does seem rather forced.

As an aside, I thought that Welcome to TPF posts did NOT count toward members' post counts, but were expressly NOT counted? I dunno...

They are bad people that deserve to have their fingers broken and trousers torn.

Good question.

Please don't tear my trousers, it's cold outside and these are the last good pair I got and my wife said she'd kill me if I ruined them.
 
Oooh. I gotta start paying attention to this. 'Cause we have to know who to stone. Although in my case, I'll probably be heaving Nerf blocks.
