I try to always try to welcome the new members. This will help you pick up some easy posts.
Nope, unfortunately this has been very much abused in the past. The Welcome forum no longer increases post counts.
Posts are looked at by the staff and must be, at least mostly, quality posts.
We have had people in the past just drag up old threads and post things like "Very interesting" and "Thanks" or "Cool stuff". People that do this sort of things will have their post counts manually lowered by the staff.
I'm sorry to sound like such a tough guy on this, but the rule is in place to try to get a feel for new members before they are allowed to do things that could be detrimental to our family. It's nothing personal.
In addition to the methods listed above, any attempt to circumvent this rule will be dealt with accordingly.
