A new section for new users to introduce themselves?

I was just thinking, as I looked through Offtopic, that there is a high number of "Introduction; I am new here" posts. I am very glad that this is so, and that there are many new members, but is there now enough to make a new section or board specialised for the topic of introductions? What do you think, fellow members and forum administrators and moderator team members?

I think a sticky topic is enough.

I suppose that might do it... Have one sticky in offtopic and any new user might drop in and say hi on it... Seeings as the poll is against my original new section idea.

Does anyone even care?

I think there should be. If there was, users would be more inclined to helping others and even asking for help.

I'm assuming the poll died before I got a chance to see it. It doesn't matter much, but if there was an option, I'd say yes.

I'd rather see a pictures topic. Pics of yourself and your computer etc...
