OP, I'm not sure if you're really a newbie, since I never trust newbies who write posts like yours

Sad to say, I don't trust any newbie by default. Especially ones that make a big deal about them "being new." Its like no shit, we can see that already.



...
My contributions are small compared to some outstanding members, but I try to watch out for interesting topics even though they are quite rare. Smiley

My observation led me to the belief that many farmers are making threads using new accounts to create a place where a lot of generic posts can be made by their alt accounts and spamming buddies.

Both statements are sad but true.

In fact, the problem of newbies is that they cannot create even one normal account to participate worthily in signature companies, but they create dozens of new accounts from which, after, we see such indignation about the imperfection of the forum.

What gets me is why they never thoughtthink to concentrate on "growing" just 1 account... pour their heart and soul into that 1 account, develop a personality with it, make it part of their online identity... A lot of us oldtimers (I think I can safely call myself that by this point) recognize sincerity and reward it since it is in such short supply.
