Just joined, looking for some advice

It's just what looks like blatant post-count building, simply by saying 'hello' on every single thread regardless of it's age.

A tactic often used by those who want quick access to a forums sales section, so it doesn't look good.

Treat it like "happy new year" after a week, you've missed the deadline.

Doesn't matter.....
I made it so any Posts in this board don't add to your total Post Count!!
