Question

I know it goes away after getting a certaint amount of points, but I think instead it should go away after the user has been registered for at least two or more weeks instead. That way it dosn't get so repetative for certain users.

If u get more points, that goes away

I still have that damn banner on Meta. >.<

Answer 1

I see your point, if you've been here a few months it could be annoying to have stuff like that on the page. I think I'll change it.

Part of the reason is that if you still have less than x amount of points, you haven't had many upvotes so maybe you should read the rules to make sure you're doing things right.

Answer 2

Is this really a big problem?
No
It's not. It is a friendly welcoming and if you can't deal with it then answer some questions.
I think you are the only person who is complaining about it, so i don't think this is ruining the DB at all.

Not really Scizor. A lot of people have pointed this out and are getting a bit annoyed by it. It isn't a big problem but sure can be fixed to be better. And when you say friendly and welcoming, don't you mean forever until you get points?

TBH, I don't see much point in you answering this...

Sciz has a valid point.

Except for that little issue of over saturation and repeating the same material with a bit of rephrasing. You can welcome people by actually welcoming them rather than beating a dead horse by putting in so many rule pages and explanations that they most likely won't read through since they can't see them in the sea of meta posts.
