Because of an issue with spam bots (we have about 100 registering to the forums each day), accounts that never post are regularly deleted, which can create havoc on the contest. As a result, the contest threads will be only visible to members whose post count is at least 1. You don't have to make a contentful post - feel free to just post a reply to this thread saying nothing at all. I just need to ensure that your account won't be caught in the spambot purges.

Since the message body of a valid post cannot be left empty, I find myself unable to comply with your recommendation.  Oh well.

Aww, shucks.  Well, for my first post, advice from a man of wisdom: always remember your towel.

--I am not a bot, my favorite color is purple, and I hate the beach. Don't delete me plz.

This sentence serves no purpose, so you don't have to read it if you don't want to.

I guess it doesn't matter that I forgot my password to my old account, then.

Probably not, though if you want to recover it, PM me with its name.

I think reading the snarky comments here is almost entertaining as the contest entries :)

One of these days I will unleash my evil genius and create a spambot swarm that will draw on this thread to create "legitimate" first posts on discussion boards.
MUWAHAHAHA!
