In my experience with other forums they would have a Introductions and Leavings thread similar to ours with the exception that it would be towards the uppermost section of the forum list. This prompted new users to introduce themselves and get some exposure into the community. In contrast our I&L thread is hidden within General Off-Topic which is down at the bottom of the forums, an area a new user is not likely to visit. So what I'm thinking is that it would be nice if we can move the I&L thread up towards Minecraft Discussion so it can gain some traffic from newer users and hopefully make Minecraft Forums more inviting.
I don't think it should be in Minecraft Discussion. Introducing yourself, in my opinion, isn't very important. I didn't do it. If it is moved, it should be in Forum Discussion & Info as it relates more to the Forums as it relates to the Forums.
