It prevents people who sign up to just spam our forums with links to advertise, etc. And you just utterly abused the site by posting two posts to get your 5 posts. Is it so hard to have just made two legitimate posts? This is not a good way to introduce yourself to a site by breaking our rules and then even admitting it.. I won't be suprised if Jeremy actually deletes this thread and it removes them from your post count.
