The introduce yourself section is basically just a way for people to get their post count up quickly. Most of the time people just copy and paste the SAME thing on all the topics, usually the overused "Welcome to TTG, read the rules and stay active"

Its just a spammers playground, why is it still being tolerated. Cant people start getting warnings for posting the same thing on every topic?

Yes, if you copy and paste the same thing on every topic it is considered spamming, but if you report them for spamming then you get a warning for wasting staffs time

I know it's annoying but what are you going to do about it?

I sometimes greet them and say hello but that's not bad, if this rant is put into action then no one will greet the new members, and the new members will just think this is a bad site.

They do need some reassurance sometimes

Just report it and move on.

No doubt it's used /mainly/ for upping ones post count, however the new players don't quite know that yet - so they do feel welcomed.

I agree with you 100% that it's overdone, and there should be a system in place to prevent the constant spam of the same post. You can't post the exact same post twice in a row, so people will add a space to a random word to get passed that.

Yes it's a annoying, no it's not /really/ a problem.
