The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

The thread has kind of moved away from the original welcoming thread :lol
We might want to open an own thread about whatever moved this thread to where it is now.

^ Alright, once was enough.  I don't like people bragging about post count, and I do delete these types of posts.  You're new, so here's your only warning.  ;)

Speaking of post counts, Nick22 has announced that he has broke the 10,000 post mark. Isn't that something?

It is. I'm glad for him. I am just happy that I now have 200 posts. In five days I posted 100 times.

And by the way Petrie, I am just announcing. That is just me expressing my happiness. I am not trying to brag. That might be a sub-conscious thing, but I am not bragging on purpose.

EDIT: From now on, I will only do that each time I get a new member rank. No more.

If you'll look here (as you should before you register here), you'll see that such as that is against the rules. You can substitute bragging for "announcing." ;)

That is what I am doing. I am just announcing on special occasions. Personally, I want to get back to welcoming me. For some reason, I want to find a way of welcoming myself without talking to myself.

If you want to welcome yourself why not do so.

Then I would be talking to myself. I don't want to be considered insane.

I've got it! I will quote a message by me that mentions the word welcome and say thank you. I am technically not speaking to myself!
