Member Introductions section....

Amiga1992 · 04 March 2009, 21:27

Can we get rid of it?
At least DO NOT INCLUDE IT in recent/unread posts searches?
PLEASE
Otherwise, PLEASE put it as an OFF TOPIC subforum.

@Akira

you welcome Grinch!

its the post count isn't it .... you dont want TCD beating you do you?

I know..... oh yesss..... i Know....

TCD · 04 March 2009, 21:31

Because some folks having fun on the first day? Maybe the whole 'junk' gets put into OT anyway, but for new members this is a good way to introduce themselves. We had quite a few of these threads recently and there was n suitable subforum for it. A lot of forums have this kind of place and I don't know why there should be none here.

The novelty will wear off Akira.. Give it a few days

Amiga1992 · 04 March 2009, 22:00

So far I see -no- new member introductions, just us being goons.

Just it being left from today's posts and/or unread messages, like OT is, would be good for me.

I wanna have a lot of posts but at least 96% of them should be useful.

Time counter would be great, I wanna know how much time I spend on EAB.

Please move this Member Introduction sub-forum to OT... there is enough crap (non Amiga related) on this forum right now and this is the worst!

Dizzy · 04 March 2009, 22:15

I agree move those thread to ot..The idea could be good, but only if it is deleted after 14 days and is for new members only..guess such thread will end up at postwhore crap thread

Dizzy · 04 March 2009, 22:26

thx who ever did it (DD?)

guess we don't need this thread anymore

CodyJarrett · 04 March 2009, 22:27

I've moved the junk threads that sprung up in the forum to "Off Topic - Stupidity".

To all - please do not use the "Member Introductions" unless it is a genuine introduction to yourself.

Sensi · 04 March 2009, 22:28

But there already is member introduction, right? Whats happening

Reaction to post below (probably first in eab history :-) ) : I thought this one would be moved too.

CodyJarrett · 04 March 2009, 22:31

SensibleFan - I've had to delete four of your junk messages in this thread alone. Please stop posting this crap.

killergorilla · 05 March 2009, 10:55

Awwww

I was wondering how long it may take

Sorry guys, I shan't be such a bad person again.

What is wrong with that thread? and surely a PM would have been enough if you have an issue!

edit: Had a think and changed the post slightly.. Any other issues please PM me!

Amiga1992 · 05 March 2009, 22:24

Oh!
I didn't realize EAB started to implement the "if there's an issue PM a mod instead of putting it on the light of the public!" technique!

Are you a new member? No
Does anybody care about this issue enough to have it displayed every time I visit and hit "hshow new posts"? Certainly, my screen space is best devoted to solving Amiga issues.

Oh I have a lot of other threads I don't wanna see when I browse the todays posts. Maybe it's the best idea to implement an individual filter then. What do you think?

The greatest number of Today's Posts I have encountered here has taken up only three pages. I would hardly think this warrants filtering.
