And it's not like it's hard to get 5 posts! I had so many questions when I got my PV (and still have heaps, and will probably have even more when my juices finally come) that I think I had 5 the first day. I'm only on day 3 here and I have about 15 I think. And that's without feeling the need to spam or make stupid posts to get my post count up.
And funnily enough, even though I have enough posts now to post elsewhere, I still only post in the newbies
threads because, well, lets face it, I'm a NEWBIE!
I haven't actually noticed any .....ing about the rules, but it doesn't surprise me, it's common enough on every forum.
